Left you comments on soundcloud mate. Hope you find them somewhat constructive!

Let me know if you want to shop anything to the Swarm for possible signing. I really think Breaking Dawn is an awesome track!

I work A&R with a number of people on the social community known as the solarSwarm Recordings. The Swarm is a social music label run by fan and headed by Solarstone's front office for all the legal stuff. I am a senior member however. PM me for my demo address and any questions you have.

I also do work for 'smü[th] Music but they are heavily backed up at the moment with releases.

Hey Darren,

Wicked tracks you have there mate. I particularly like Summer Rain and was hoping you could arrange a down load for me as I will play this on my radio show and push that for you. I personally think this is the strongest track out of the lot in terms of what it would do on the dance floor at least for the clubs I play at. The hook is also the most memorable of the lot imho.

Thanks for sharing

Cheers
Nem

Ok, please answer me: Why do you use such overlong breakdowns?
To me your tracks are mostly boring, since there is nothing really happening. I mean it sounds properly mixed, but where's the finesse? Unexpected effects, mini breaks instead of one long one, using stereo channels, anything? I mostly here beat and some tagging base line. AH well, whatever, that's why I stopped listening to tech-trance...

@Soulstone, i'm not really sure what your getting at. You said i use "overlong" breakdowns and then went on to say i do "mini" breakdowns.

Are the breakdowns too long for you or not long enough?

I write the music as to how i like it, i personally don't find any of them boring but i appreciate your comments.

Thanks
Darren

He said mini-breaks as a suggestion to make your music more "interesting".

As far as I'm concerned that's just genre bias. If that's not your style why criticize you for it? You've got a solid sound, keep doing what you're doing.

Ahhh, i just read it again and i understand now. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I kinda got the hint he just didn't like Tech Trance so painted me with the same brush.

Thanks for the comment Kysora.

I just think that breakdowns of more than 1min are most of the times too long. I feel it as an energy killer when I'm on the dancefloor.
The other thing I was trying to point at is, that your track structure is quite generic. It just feels as if there's nothing to discover when I listen to it and I tryed give some ideas of how to make your tracks more unique and creative.

It has not really something to do with whether I like the whole genre or not. It was not my intention to bash you.
