I love the climaxes on these:

Signum - Second Wave
Alex Bartlett - Amnesia (Flutlicht vs Shokk Remix)

Are you kidding me, Fire & Ice - Souvenir De Chine is a bloody shit song..

omfg...now i hafta take that to offence...
souvenir de chine is one of the best songs ever produced!
the melody is just total bliss
it's so uplifting and emotional that the track just speaks for itself
but hey..who am i to complain
i mean...since l-vee and jurgen leyers are such crappy producers

to tell you the truth, im getting tired of pure trance melodies like souveneir de chine...its just a little to happy, theres no change to it. i need somethign more dynamic and i think thats why i am starting to spin a more progressive style of trance. souveneir de chine is kind of a newbies trance song

while Souvenir De Chine's build up is surely long and elaborate, it is not necessarily more intense and "moving" than any other trance track, even other Fire and Ice songs.

I mean, all that happens is the main riff is played sans beat (with a few odd percussion hits) then the beat starts. Pretty standard.

Compare that with Nu Nrg's Take Your Air. Probably the most incredible "uplifting" build up I have heard. Just over 2 min in length, it just builds and builds, with the main synth riff changing half way through.

Nu Nrg delivers the knock out punch to Fire and Ice

I always thought Better Off Alone was a newbies trance song

So you're saying epic is for beginners, prog is for pros?
Have fun trying to tell that to serious trance fans hehehe

ones that i think ih ave a good climax are (beside souvenir de chine)


vimana - we came
fire and ice - lost emotions 2001
fire and ice - forever young
moonproject - moments are forever
mike - sunrise at palamos
lost tribe - under the red sea
subtle by design - kali yuga (john johnson remix)
alpha breed - alien arrival (freejack remix)
shokk - isnt it all a little strange (krazy nut mix)
jose amnesia - the eternal
plastic boy - angel dust
steve baltes - a kiss around midnight
pvd - out there and back

i think "shane 54" did a better version of "souvenir de chine".
Better mixed and more uplifting!!
Anyway look out for the new afterglow releases.. they will be
big!
