A friend of mine recently lent me the Stereophonics album ‘Language, Violence, Sex, Other’. ‘Superman’ is the first track on the album. As soon as I heard it I though “that melody would make a cool trance track” – and well… need I say more?
I wanted to create something a little more chilled than my usual stuff, but still be very melodic & still have good ‘dancefloor impact’ so to speak
This is the result. A chunky, uplifting trance track that would go well with a melodic or more chilled set.
All critique positive & negative appreciated (as usual)
Hugs,
Brendan
P.S.
Wim, don’t worry man, I have been working on that midi u sent me, I’m just a slow ass bastard – just ask Fundy

very interesting. the breakdown totally took me by suprise, very nicely done.
the main bit seems to have less power than the intro, though.. maybe because there is no big build-up leading up to it, dunno
anyway, good stuff overall. loving the percussion.. watch the kick though, it seems to disappear behind the bassline a bit at some points.
great job

reviewing while listening:
mhh nice beat & percs, I like them...
I understand that TOR means: the bassline needs less attack (imo), & the kind of phased acidline is a bit overcomped...
The breakdown is absolutely amazing! The exit of the break seems a bit fast, try to wait a bit... It'll fit better imo!
The saw pad is not really exciting, try to do some weird style with the LFO !
The use of the vocals is a bliss btw...
really good use of the guitar sample from tthe original. when that comes in its great! the vocals could have been a bit more prominent in my opinion. really crisp production. nice work.

Nice riff
The bass is awasome.
For some reason it sounds like Tranqulity Base - Razor Blade.
The breakdown comes too early.
The vocals are nice.
Nice melody
Very original
I would like to hear more hihats.
