qft simply because no one's tracks last longer. (ok maybe some ame and mathew johnson stuff)


serious answer i think is subtlety. Everyone goes through their hard as fuck drums, huge bass and what not phase(it will always pass). The real lasting tracks are beautifully produced and have bearing on the dancefloor as well in non party situations. The best music is not in your face simply because it is so good it does not have to be to get your attention and keep it.

This is a very individual case imo. As for me, it is the combination of my current mood combined with the "emotion" I attribute to the track. There are usually just a bunch of tracks I associate with each "emotion". The feeling I have on a track mainly originates from its melody, the bassline isn't that important.
If a new track does not fit into this pattern I won't listen to it for more than a couple of times.

i have to agree with you there nice way to put it...

but i do like a big bassline rolling with melodic sounds as im also into my drum & bass music, bassy electro with emotion about sums my sound up.

When everything just works together. Hard to describe.

A track might have a good bassline or a nice melody or whatever, and it can hold my interest for a while with those things alone, but in order for it to become a "classic" to me, the whole thing has to seem "right" in some special way, feel uniquely "whole" and unified, like each element of the song naturally follows from and complements every other one.

it's time to party

It must be a big hit but it must end up being hated by everyone else who has heard it too many times.

My favourite song is Sandstorm-Darude.

Trance is unique to each and every one of us. I assimilate my own meanings from a song that i like. I attach memories to them. Particular music that conjures emotions or, makes me energetic. they're all good reasons .

Nice responses!

Along the same lines... do you think a tune needs to have excellent sound quality / attention to detail / good mastering -- to be enjoyable and have that same lasting power?

Or does that just add to its 'awesomeness' if it is mastered well and uses good/clean samples?

For me it has to have a solid, unique bass line. And a melody that isn't repetitive, yet is still solid and gives you a deep though of some sort while listening.

Subtlety and depth. Some tracks I hear and instantly I'm thinking "woah this is the best shit ever", and after two weeks I get bored of them. Other tracks don't particularly make a mark on me the first time because they're not so obvious, and then they slowly grow on me because every time I listen to them I'm hearing something new.
