Alphazone simply ownz. Their productions always contain so much energy, only few producers manage to create that. And they have found a way to release high quality, commercial music without getting cheesy. That deserves respect.

I can't give them much respect I'm afraid. Jetlag was good, but that was nearly four years ago and they haven't advanced beyond that. Their sound is extremely boring now, and while I do like Rockin a fair bit, the melody is identical to Astral Projection - Zero... hmm...
Zero is a good word here -- zero creativity.

It might be harsh, but I don't believe it's unfair.
Actually now that you mention it, I can't stand The Legacy. Not sure how it got so popular... oh and shockingly, the Alphazone remix of that rips off Strange World.
What did Stay rip off?

Oh come on - if you compare each hookline these days, either if itīs asotstyle or hardtrance, everything could be a rip off. There are only 12 notes, and there are just a few functional chordchanges that are easy enough for the dumb clubmasses. When it comes to similarities, you could diss a lot of producers....

if you want to use a hookline.. why not remix the song? or make a cover for it.. (and give credit to the original producer)
its just a dumb marketing scheme.
running out of note combinations is the dumbest excuse ive heard

I did not say people run out - I said itīs difficult to avoid similarities.
But hey - everything is a matter of taste, and this thread is about alphazone, so you donīt like alphazone, I do, thatīs just it. We shouldnīt start a debate of ripoffs and similar sounding hookline here
