Originally posted by Micheline there is two songs that are coming from people i think are good producers. This two songs are Love on the run from Chicane and Venus from Cor Fijneman. I heard a lot of hype about them and i recently listen them. I can say with open heart this are the some of the worst tracks this year. Cor Fijneman saw what Paul Oakenfold did with Southern sun and he decides to produce kind of the same song. I mean you can clearly hear the vocals pretty much the same. And asking Tiesto to remix it just shows how he wanted to be something like Paul Oakenfold- Southern sun(Tiesto mix). Thats offcourse its not something big. Many people do this kind of stuff, but funny how Venus turned out worst than i can expect. Its just not anything special. Chicane is returning and why? To release something called Love on the run. I asked myself "what the fuck?". I actually think it can grow on you, but here comes the shock. Blank&Jones remix just killed all my hopes for anything better. Rank 1- Airwave(Breathing) just heard that one. And i will add it to the "bad" tracks this year. What the hell is that? I say go make some new music and leave the classics behind. Stop and i really mean stop releasing ur only hit again and again with or without vocals. I am Micheline and this has been reality check on some of the tracks nobody dare to attack, but should!!

I am prototrance and STFU N00B!

chill, its only their opinion. they dont like some songs, eh whatever. no need to say fuck off, your name may be protrance, but you act like cheesetrance right there

i haven't heard chicane's tune neither cor fijneman's version of venus, but to say tiesto remix of venus is the worst track of the year is just plain DUMB.

Cor Fijneman's work doesn't deserve to be disparaged like that. Sure, there are those who bash the Tiesto remix because it's the cool thing to do, but Cor has always been on the forefront of the Dutch trance wave. He's produced with Black Hole label mates like Tiesto and Geert Huinink for years now (co-produced many Allure tracks, for example) and doesn't always get the credit he deserves. He's recently hitting his stride in terms of big solo productions (Venus, Exhibition) and it's nothing if not pure Dutch trance. Add vocals from Jan Johnston that are unobtrusive at worst and you have a release that should please even the most discerning trance fan.

As for Love On The Run, I like it but I'm not surprised at the flak it's recieved. For one, Nick Bracegirdle's absence from the scene was so long that any comeback short of an absolute miracle would have left people saying, "but... but... Saltwater was better." We're easily blinded by nostalgia and it's hard to judge new works by their intrinsic value as opposed to their nostalgic appeal. In these cases the old tracks almost always win. Furthermore, it's a style slightly different from his old productions. A bit housier, a bit groovier. All the better, I say. Many producers get ripped into for repeating the same sound and one could hardly fault Nick in that respect.

And Breathing? No argument from me here. I generally despise it when old, instrumental tracks are revived with vocals in an apparent cash-grab attempt. That's not to say it can never work (see Perception) but the vast majority are simply horrible and make a mockery of the original work. Breathing is sadly no different.

Intrinsic value eh? *Adds to vocabulary*

...sorry couldn't resist!

Breathing was a blatent cash-in. Really annoying.
