above + beyond style synth = common?

just like to mention before u start reading, this is NOT an above and beyond bashing thread

after listening to some new melodic tracks today, i noticed a pattern emerging, they all seem to use that old above and beyond style synth, take the two new remixes of airbase vs. inzite - unity to the earth, the original too i thought was above and beyodn style, plus many "emerging" artists all seem to use that style now, or is it me? is it easy to recreate, as many of them seem to use it? tell me what u have noticed or what your reckon is the reason behind this...

yeah, i have also noticed many people copying off A & B synth, and back round synth. Probely because its quite uplifting & easys on ya ears, and quite cheesey, so more people like it.

personally if i was too make a tune it would be a good idea too copy off A & B's work because its all quality shite, but i wouldn't copy though, because its just stupid & if ya a producer who can't come up with anything new why produce, well too a certain extent.

Yeah u are right Stee, good to make a point out of it. The familar bassline in all uplifting Trance has probably derived off producers such as Ferry and Armin (correct me if im wrong)as it occours in the majority of there tracks, and now other upcoming producers are using the same "Trance Synths" as it were...
