yes the breakdown is fantastic sometimes

I'd have to agree, the breakdowns can be amazing. The bassline is important within the main tune, it adds a kind of 'depth' to the song, whereas the breakdown doesn't require many bassy sounds

What he said.

sometimes the bassline is key to the breakdown

most people who are used to listening to hiphop or pop or whatever think trance is broing becuase htey only listen to the bassline. most trance has a very simple bassline...its what is above the bassline...all the things that happen in the treble and midbass area and all the complexity that goes on that makes trance so amazing. sometimes bassline is important depending on the song though.

without the bassline the breakdown is nothing, breakdowns simply add anticipation, all you wanna hear is that bassline kick back in.

I agree wholeheartedly that the bass provides depth in a song. Without it, or with poor usage, a song can come off as extremely dull, no matter how amazing the melody is.

I think that the breakdowns are the essence of a trance track... but it needs great basslines to become ART (and 4 me that is what trance is... ART!)

the breakdown is what gets my attention but a track isnt complete w/out a bassline.
