thought of this, looked it up and it had minimal on it



maximal i call it. not that nasty minimal stuff, it shares some characteristics... simplistic, stripped out. the opposite of a wall of sound. just the perfect elements brought together in expert fashion.

you could call it minimal trance... except it has SOUL! the one thing minimal lacks.

another PERFECT and gorgeous example of a soulful stripped back elegant trance track. thank you mr boratto

i really don't think of trance at all when i think of simplistic danceable and enjoyable tracks.

i think of stuff more along the lines these:







i forgot that i really love this track till about 2:55 then i think it loses the plot. it starts off so great.

Excellent excellent excellent!! I like these tracks very much, especially "Flying Practice" by Gui Boratto. I love the atmosphere. I love how it dares to sound so melodic yet so effective in sound, and at the same time it dares not to go too much beyond boundaries to ruin it's charm.

The first track you posted though, I think Tiesto ripped off that sound.

Check it out. Was it just a coincidence or is it just me?
