They just don't do it like this anymore (vocal trance)
Driving this weekend I found myself with a car with no cd player, so I ran up and grabbed my old tapes when I first started mixing.... yes, I said TAPES!
It all came back to me with these 2 in particular...
Just brilliance!!!
"All the subtle flavours of my life
are become bitter seeds
and poisoned leaves
without you
You represent what's true
I drain the colour from the sky
And turn blue
without you
These arms lack a purpose
Flapping like a humming-bird
I'm nervous 'cause
I'm the left eye
you're the right
Would it not be madness to fight
We come one
In you the song which rights my wrongs
In you the fullness of living
The power to begin again
From right now, in you
We come one
I'm not afraid
never never scared
Worries washed
pressed air
I am the left eye
you're the right
Would it not be madness to fight
We come one"
MARCELLA WOODS!! "The" voice of trance! Beautiful; that it is!!!
"Your shining light will be my guide
Leads me to a place where I don´t need to hide
The heavens open up the door
With dreams so innocent and pure
You are beautiful
Within the rays of light
You are beautiful
Without the jewels of life
Let your spirit capture me
My love is blind
You are beautiful within
You are beautiful without
You are beautiful within
You are beautiful tonight
In amongst the rays of light
Your silouette it shines
You´re an angel you are free
Let your spirit baptise me
And elevate my mind
You are beautiful
Within the rays of light
You are beautiful
Without the jewels of life
Let your spirit capture me
My love is blind
You are beautiful within
You are beautiful without
You are beautiful within
You are beautiful
Within the rays of light
You are beautiful
Without the jewels of life
Let your spirit capture me
My love is blind
You are beautiful within
You are beautiful without
You are beautiful within
You are beautiful
Within the rays of light
You are beautiful
Without the jewels of life
Let your spirit capture me
My love is blind
You are beautiful within
You are beautiful without
You are beautiful within"
No they don't man. Vocal now is just full of BS...cheezey, over the top, meaningless SHIT. I want back the days when you hear AMAZING vocal stuff mixed in between a well thought out balanced, flowing, wicked trance set that took you somewhere. I haven't heard one of those in 2 years...

I'll never forget first hearing Mark Oliver play "Child Of The Universe" (DJ Taucher) some 5 years ago. Total mindfcuk.
/Ian Van Dahl's Castles in the Sky still my favourite of all time though.

I disagree. There is still some very good vocal trance gems around being released. You just have to be on the lookout.
BTW Jan Johnston for the win. She needs to work with more stuff.

For sure man! definate winner!... But Marcella Woods has that Operatic voice that really sets her apart. I always think of Phantom of the Opera when I hear her voice.

To each their own I guess. The vocal trance that I get a hold of these days is pretty damn awesome.

there was cheesy vocal trance back then, and there were works of art along side... its the same thing now, except there are a hefty amount of producers now getting attention in comparisson to yesterday. it just takes a lot of fine tuning nower days to seek out the music that has had more effort thrown into it. Flesh by jan is one of my all time favs ahhhhh.
Loz
PS. would you guys hate me if I said I loved the tune Mr white even tho it has ridiculous lyrics?

Corderoy - Deeper
So I'm at the edge, of all I know
But I'm ready, to lose myself
I want to go deeper...
With you I am not afraid
I have to hide my pride
I want to be by your side...
With you I am not dismayed
I want to go deeper x2
I look into your eyes
I want to go deeper x2
I'm drawn from every side
I want to go deeper x2
I want to go deeper x3
With you I am not afraid
I want the world to see
There's something in your eyes so bright
It's got me mesmerized
I can't believe this is so real
I'm so in love with you...
I've seen you make me feel
I have to let myself go deeper...
With you I am not dismayed
I have to hide my pride
I want to be by your side...
With you I am not afraid
I want to go deeper x2
I look into your eyes
And I want to go deeper
I'm drawn from every side
And I want to go deeper x2
You set my world on fire
And I want to go deeper
Want to go deeper...
I guess when I feel so ??? free
And I want to go deeper
Want to go deeper...
