First of all it's nice to see something other than uplifting/melodic trance here, maybe thats just me cos I'm going off it a lot but whatever.


Like others said it does remind me of RvdB a lot, maybe a bit too much, but keep improving and your sound should become more distinguished.

Ride cymbal (the one that comes in at the end of the breakdown) sounds a bit bad to me, bad sample maybe? Or maybe it's just the low bitrate or me being fussy


Oh and if you have any tips for making these kind of tunes (especially beat/percussion wise) it would be nice to know, since I'm digging the tech-trance a lot these days.

Anyway apart from the RvdB-ness, it's a really good tune, right up my street. Just keep it up, your beats & bass are so nice and energetic
