Originally posted by pkcRAISTLIN um yeah. coz producing QUALITY trance tunes is just a piece of cake. and the lyrics in trance songs are just SO complicated, deep and meaningful

hey! never said trance lyrics were deep and meaningful, mainly they just sound sweet. BUT, if someone is singing, there's gotta be a tune someone has written, yes? a decent tune is very hard to create.

pho mo, if you've got enough party tricks on your computer you don't have to write a melody cos there's so many layers and it's all stored there for you, ready to add at whatever minute mark your little heart so desires. if you can't write a melody too well on your keyboard then synth it up and it'll sound alright. i've a friend with a sensational program for writing tracks and the bloody computer does the entire thing for you. you could be a complete moron when it came to 'composing' tracks and it would still sound ok! actually made me go off trance for quite a while.

and soups- i stand by song choices! i honestly believe the tracks i like are the most beautiful/clever/fun whatever in the world... and that would be why i like them uh huh?!

vocals dont necessarily add any more melody to a song than is already there. in fact the vocals are just another layer of the song.

um dude, youre lecturing the guy who won the recent Oz production competition, methinks he knows a lot more about production of quality trance tunes than youre giving him credit for. and theres no way in hell a computer is ever going to write better music than a talented musician. im thinking perhaps your tastes are a lil easier to fulfill if you think \"synthing\" up a bad melody makes it sound \"alright\".

...and then you got back into your time machine, returned to 2005, and said 'yeah, but 2017 ain't all that. slurpees are banned for being carcinogenic, sasha's done a moby and is making bad punk, and JPL's spinning 'hits of the last century' at the local retirement home!'

imho less vocals the better.

[with some obvious exceptions]

erm, i can't really remember my original point now! i totally agree with everything you say so in response to this, i think i was only trying to say:

1. computers allow anyone to create some sort of music even if they're untrained or entirely lacking musical talent. i believe 'music' made by a non-musician with the use of a computer software program will sound better than 'music' made by a non-musician bashing away on a piano.
2. if 'sung'(as opposed to whispered sweet nothings or sighs or aaahs) vocals form part of the track then someone has really had to create and write a tune to 'sing.'

but arguments with randoms over the internet is kind of weird so i'll stick to simple postings on this forum now.

- i like some vocal tracks. beautiful things and southern sun and silence have pleasant lyrics and the girls have soothing and/or powerful voices.
- i like some non-vocal tracks. for an angel and insomnia and everyday are incredibly distinctive and powerful compositions.
- i like a nice mix-up of both on the dancefloor and i don't like too many boring fillers.

that is all
