Ever since I heard The Thrillseekers - Synaesthesia (En Motion mix), I've always regarded it as a very special track. I realise that it doesnt take a virtuoso to filter something in and out, but there's just something about the way Steve does it that makes this track so unique.
The beautiful synth coupled with the flawless filtering always gives me this wonderful feeling, it's hard to explain exactly what it is.

But I recently asked a few of my friends WHY they liked synaesthesia and they basically said/implied "it has a cool melody".
I think too many people are just dismissing this track as just another cool trance track. I believe it is much more than that. Doesn't anyone 'feel' this track like I do?

Hehe, so did I. Read a very interesting article about it www.wired.com. Can't seem to find it now though. In the article, scientists argued that Synaesthesia helps people to solve logical problems. One example was a professional musician who got sensations of taste in her mouth when listening to music (or sounds really). She used that when composing here own stuff, but also when she was playing other compositions.

I've always liked it, but I've heard tracks with a similar production technique that are better IMO.

I never thought the track was more than average. I prefer trance with great vocals.

I feel you on this Peter. As old as this track is now, there is just something it does to me everytime I hear it that no other track does. As if the chords strike me just a certain way.

Its an odd one.

it sounds so weak and uncomplete like there could be more added to it yet it sounds so full and shouldnt be added to.

I love the brilliant little hook in it- not the main melody but the secondary one. It really does lift the track from just another anthem into a truly great track.

I think I do.
I can't describe the feeling, it's simply very pleasant.
But yeah, that track is special compared to most other trance tracks.
