Hi everyone. I have finished my first hard trancer called "Obsession".

Please have a listen and let me know what you think.

Thanks

-Very 90's
-Sounds like a Wipeout or Descent soundtrack song
-Bass is tight
-Squeaky
-needs more pad action during the bass-phrase-changes at 2:30ish to give it oopmmhmhpmmgffff

if anything focus on more energy during 2:30 phrase. I'd mix that part in if I were to mix anything.

Cheers

KZ

edit: listen #2

-5:23 and on gets a little j-trance...something they'd have included in the Initial D arcade game. Which is cool, but not the sound I expected.
-needs more energy still, tho the tail end is good
-why not start *and* end with one of the climax motifs? I dunno why you have the 2-3 minute intro that doesn't really do it for me, then there's a decently powerful climax!

Not my cup of tea atm, but could be decent soundtrack fare

Nice work dude i very much like this.

agree with some of TonyZ's points though, adding pads artound 2:30 would work very nicely.

i personally think the kick sounds a bit dull against the bass, give it a bit more high & mid for punch imo

generally though i think youve done a great job on it definately sounds professional. the melody is nice too. it needs some work in a few areas and perhaps some of the hats should be reprogrammed they also sound as if theyre blending too much to me.

90 % dancefloor ready
