i heard your tracks before you would post them under your richiev alias. not going to sit here and say they're bad, its mediocre like most of my music mastering seems good.

you should hear my trance rendition i couldnt even bring myself to get it lower than 129bpm. maybe in 5 years i can do some damage, hopefully i wont give up.



im probably the same age you made those tracks, mind you my hifi speakers are a joke.

regardless of the genre , I could nail a hook and melody, I guess i think about how people produce now and it was so different. There were no presets or like vengeance samples. no how to guides. Nobody talked about EDM in Canada and nobody that made the german stuff i liked talked about anything.

And of course the first few tracks with all hardware. Like an akai sampler, external reverb and effects. 1 compressor. 16 channel mackie mixer. I think i went to a rave, and it was some german guy and the next day , wanted to make that music. Started djing after. Never understood why people dj first. I started djing as a beat that in one year, i would have a residency because i thought it was so easy, But because i was such a shit talker granted everyone really did suck, i burned all my bridges just about the time i left for uni,

i think you are a good producer. I just think your aesthetic will make it hard to get noticed. IF you don't have melody, sound production and the use of those sounds is really the only way to make your mark. I never tried to copy the guys I loved because I could never even come close.

Before this, I was in a punk band about to get signed to fat record until my brother fucked off and went to university. I was used to that soCal nofx strung out type stuff so things tended to end up like well a guy in to metal and punk doing trance. So like I just kinda jumped into dance. But by the end , i had about 500 records i bought from online stores and this old school dj who retired and sold me his collection of 5000 records for 1000. Like every club track you could imagine from 1990. Like there was all this house , like that west coast house i couldn't stand but i bet people would die for them. I think i sold them for like 200 because my parents wanted them out of the house and I decided to pursue other things so didn't see the point of holding on to them.

everyone always says i have potential, but to act out and fully develop is another story, wish i could say i will do it but thats not reality.

i see traits in your tracks from other tracks i probably heard, influences for sure at least, like scot project(ruh roh).

interesting bit about the hardware, i can somewhat relate. i dont use any vsts, i use a closed system (reason) i have to do much of the sound design myself, ofcourse its not the same, its way easier.

i want to see you make a track today, or this year rather, will you do that? im sure if you pour even 1000 bucks into your album/single/ep promotion you will be talk of the town.


the way i see it, its pretty much impossible to make it without finanical backing, and i dont have that so i just emulate tracks i love, going on a progressive house spree, it makes me dance in my room and im happy.

i do plan to. I've been making patches and listening to music to see whats been done. I just don't care for djing or touring. And if i do something, will probably be like a 1-2 year investment and I do plan to make money not djing or licensing but just marketing to people rather than djs. Just to prove that it can be done.

L4C: These tracks really do fit well into the sounds of those days. Enjoyed most of them quite a bit!

I enjoyed listening to them. Some nice hooks, #14 brought this tune to my head.

For me the tracks are the complete opposite of what passes for most EDM these days in that they all have a strong identity, a hook or some element that makes them an individual piece of music.

For me they all lack a flair and flamboyance that I like in dance, it should be like going to the circus for me, although that's down to personal preference. I like Scooter ffs.

i think if you were not 16 - 24 , it was just too fast. Although i used love this stuff, i just couldn't dance like that anymore. Even the house tracks were fast back then. Interesting when you think about why.

basshunter was like 2006+

I suppose that pitched bass sound which was pioneered by SHOKK would show up in the mainstream dance. And the Darkside/SP O how that rhythm was nicked.
