Hello. This shall be my first comment ever in the Tranceaddict forum. I simply have to comment on this song...

The first time I hear this song, I immediately burst into laughter. You've taken the most common, overused trance music elements and slap them together in one big original compilation. (Very, very cliché indeed!) I applaud you for such a sneaky approach.

Hey, I didn't like the song at all but it's good not to like it because it's not a song per-se...it's something weird. It's like making a hip-hop song and just putting: "WASSUP, NIGGA, NIGGA, NIGGA, BITCHES, NIGGA, FOURTIES, NIGGA, GUNS, NIGGA, BING-BLING, NIGGA, and a video of a boatload of Escalades, Navigators, and other prefered SUVs by the afro-americans, then a roomful of 34" chrome Spinner rims, then a Phat Pharm and FUBU store with a bunch of ladies chaking their ass in thongs... I got your message, that was a good idea there. I'll go check out your real songs.

honestly i didn't like the track at all. maybe this is your style but sounds way too cheesy. i can see that you wanted to put together a collection of cliches but what's the point of it?


Can't say I liked it either...but I got it. I wouldn't have taken so much time to do that.

Other than that...

I wish I had Asperger's Syndrome.[

Hello Zanoma, thanks for your comments. Glad you liked it. I like your avatar. Anime, yes? Glad you had a good laugh... I didn't mean to be sneaky, rather, "all guns drawn out", but I *think* I know what you mean.

RiCo I think there is a hip-hop parody like that! Thank you. LOL... it's like in the map of trance, there are certain landmarks you want to check out.

Digital Aura: Hi, I don't understand what you mean. What did you mean about you wish you had Asperger's Syndrome?

For your enjoyment, here are four more tracks, melodic and kind of quirky but not totally alien but alien in a cuddly, Asgard way... and as suggested (thank you), more serious than "Too Many Cliches" but definitely fun... which I am admittedly having a hard time labelling because I'm too biased, so you'd like to slap style names on them, by all means feel free:


Fashionable Weapon - CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD MP3
I would consider this regressive trance in some ways, progressive in others... so I call it PROGREG. This track was inspired by the TranceAddict community, so, I'm going somewhere with this! (as in, one of those plot arcs on a sci-fi show, like Stargate SG-1... LOL) Not sure what else to say except that it was fun to do and a nice departure, and not every day I can use the elastic, pitched sound of a computer crashing as a transition effect thingy. Hail Ally McBeal.

Gunmetal Tiara - CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD MP3
Progressive symphonic breakbeat? Bacon, lettuce, tomato? Whatever I had the idea of, you know, fairytales and dragons (dungeons?) and princesses behind this, hence the name. Big string melody. It's sort of medieval but futuristic at the same time... there's a part where it goes to 4-on-the-floor, I don't know why I did that, but I know I wanted to do it -- so I did it. A real bastard mongrel sword, dance romance, lalala.

Cool Fusion - CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD MP3
I had this incredible visual of cats playing bongos and all dancing in a conga line, so this is like a tribal house-alternative trance affair (yeah, I couldn't resist not cutting back on the arps)... wanted to create various builds for tension, and music box jangles, and the sound of soft drinks being poured. No kidding. Some of the bassline was taken from the acid house era of late 80s-early 90s, and I am so appreciative of the many shades and colors in the electronic music spectrum. Beautiful, beautiful paintings.

Incarna - CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD MP3
Spacy, deep-space (I know, redundant) temporal excursion... uses the same handclaps as the preceeding, but "more" twisted. The xylophone influence came from an obvious source -- upon listening you will know -- had the idea of using a rattlesnake as percussion. A real, live, rattlesnake (!). Lots of bass wobbles and melodic jingles, both clean and distorted techniques, sort of like . . . like I said, piloting a cute little ship through the galaxy (or beyond the Milky Way). More downtempo but still danceable.


As always, thank you graciously
