Labyrinth by eXude (Calvin Karass & Phil Redford) by Calvin Karass


A typical Amen trancer. Just a bit of fin. Give it a listen.

Lots to like here. Definately a traditional trance track with plenty of nice melody and well chosen sounds.

I'm being overly critical here but this is what I jotted down while listening :-

Kick could use a bit more click.

Snare became a bit lost as the track developed, maybe layer it with something a bit punchier at certain points.

Background pad becomes a bit overwhelming. Maybe sidechain (more?) to fit in but not for an obvious pump.

Low end bass sounds a bit thick on my sennheiser buds, a small notch around 200-500hz should cure that while not removing any low end growl.

The gated choir sound at the start is strong. I think it could be used more throughout the track almost as a transitional stab.


Nice stuff though, I like

What he said^^

Pick a different kick sample tho, and layer it lol

very typical trancer!

I don't know if I'd get rid of the kick but I'd look at layering it with something else. The bass-line needs a little work on its presence, too. For all it's typical trancer sounds, it's got a lot of nice but original ear-candy.

As proof of concept goes, I'm really liking this tune.
