I like the effect you're going here. I'd say it's more ambient breaks than ambient trance.
That said, I was quite dissappointed when Winamp told me the song was three and a half minutes long. I'm sorry, but ambient is not three minutes. Ambient isn't even ten minutes. You need something like ten times this length to have ambient, as far as I care. Everything developed way too fast for ambient. It needed to be much more, well, ambient.

Oh, it can be one minute long. I'll just scream, throw a hissy fit and demand an extended mix every time.

What's the deal with all those labels u guys put on this track?
"its too short for ambient, so thats why it sucks"
"the samples doesnt have good quality.." duh, its 90 BPM, done in Traktor
"it doesn't have enough sounds for chill-out, so it sucks"
Yea, whatever. Rules are for pussies.

Its great sunquest, a real chillout track in my opinion - dont listen to all these genre wankers.
It sounds brilliant to me - and the melody is really superb - i havent heard your Trance one so if you could sort me out with where i could hear it?

I have to agree i was talking to ron earlier today and said that this track is my fav of his so far. The melody is awesome. anywayz like jaym said its not true ambient but it works, but i guess the way you made it proves that. all good though.
Ron - i agree my all time fav is the same, carte blanche. Bad ass

Very nice chillout, liked it a lot, except from the drum-kick, I think it should be softer. Everything else's good. The melody is great.
BTW why did you lower the bpm in Traktor and not in Reason/Cubase/whatever you used?

the track's overcompressed and lacking a bassline
i agree with SoM that the melody is good

I didn't say that. I said that I didn't like it because it was too short. Long, meditative and complex to some degree is something I demand in ambient.
All that aside, why are you flaming people for ripping into an aspect of a track that they don't like? I thought that this forum was for producers to receive feedback on their tracks. It doesn't specify that it has to be positive feedback. This means that if you think a song could be improved, you can say how. I think that this song could be improved, and I've said so. What is so wrong with that?
