Well this song is not finishied yet but this is the main idea.

[[ LINK REMOVED ]]

A very synthy-symphonic intro. A white-noise drowned clap starts the trance beat while the strings repeat their phrase. Then an interesting lead start a staccato passage that hails a trance beat that is highly compressed and fairly hardhitting. In fact the bassline is borderline hardstyle.

After the first break, you've got a countering lead playing a round of a part that compliments the other melody fairly well.

I really haven't heard this style of trance much, but I think you've still got a ways to go before finishing this track. Good luck, and you do have some good ideas so far with it.

The clap is to "dance ejay" for my liking! But the melody, when it comes in, is good. I think you need to fill out the synths with a bit of equing to give the track a bit more atmosphere. I also really like the bassline.

Keep working at it!
