If not: check out Robbie Rivera - Funk-a-tron, released about 2 years or even more before Satisfaction. You'll hear where Benny got his idea and sounds. :)


Was that track played out as much as Satisfaction? Look, there's a whole bunch of electro house tracks out there, way older than these tracks. I don't see your point.

i have to disagree on push, imo he is one of the few persons who chooses to replace his sounds every time. The thing that remains is his style, but styles never change. The only style that changes is Tiesto's style, but that has got more to do with the person he chooses to create his next track for him. :)


dumbest thing ever said on TA :wtf:

Someone was saying that Satisfaction was bloody original, I'm just saying it wasn't :)

And yeah, that track was a pretty big hit in fact, it got featured on a few leading compilations in the Benelux, and I believe it was quite an Ibiza-hit as well...

No, of course it wasn't original. :p I liked it though, back then I hadn't heard anything like it, and I doubt most not-so dedicated EDM listeners had either.

Ah well, enough about that.

And the reason I single Push out among trance producers is he makes loads of records under loads of aliases, all sounding the same. Why not just stick to being MIKE, rather than Push/Plastic Boy/Solar Factor/whatever.


thats true..he has soo many alias and they sound the same...but he has done amazing stuff...i love him..

I was just thinking MIKE (aka Push, one guy). I've heard countless productions of his under countless aliases, and they all are just a bit too similar. And I don't give a crap about his work as Artist X, I've never heard it and I doubt I ever will.


No you have not heard countless productions by him. Why? Because, he has many productions that do not sound like him at all. Try listening to Liquid Overdose - Pure Glide or Opium and then tell me it sounds the same. And yes, Liquid Overdose = MIKE.

I definatly cant stand producers that use the same in every song

can you say... probspot?????????

BUT i also can say, a producer that uses a similar sound in most of their tunes makes them unique,

for example, Marco V uses a similar kick in most of his tunes, that is a good thing, his kick is pounding and energetic, that has gained him his name and when you hear that sound, its marco v.

**In my opinion

Alot of producers can pull of this 'similar sound' and sound very good:
* Dirty Bass < has a grungy, fuzzy, ride cymbal that occurs in all their tunes
* Marco V < as mentioned earlier
* Hardcell < simple boomy basslines that are usually bouncy and moving, similar in most tunes
* Hertz < has a simple sound repeated, almost the same synth
* Ferry < usually has the same electro-ish feel to most of his tunes
* A&B < usually has a moving, flowing, positive synth that is usually very trancy


Thats all i could think about right now, but a similar sound are usually good, it separates them from the rest, i can explain this to people that say "all techno (they say techno becuase they think its all 'techno') sounds the same" but in theory, it is closely the same, but the sounds are unique to the artists

Oh yeah, +1 for RvG.

He ultimately proved it with Cold Storage. Ughhh.....

Hm, Benny Benassi hasn't been mentioned yet...

Satisfaction was a breath of fresh air for the more commercial dance scene, but everything since has been the same sound over and over...



i like the new outkast remix :D




anyways i dont really think its that bad that some producers dont vary their sound.. i actually prefer that most of htem keep their sound the same

for instance

js16 .. i love his tunes.. and remixes.. because of the structure type, and the elements

but producers that i am bored of because of their style

solid globe
markus schulz
pulsedriver ( i like his sound but i dont like the direction hes going with it)
probspot a bit

lost_in_trance
Filo & Peri is another example

I like them a lot at the beginning but now I find them quite boring with always the same bassline on the beat.

Your kidding right?

Tranqulity sounds nothing like Talk like a stranger, I think Schulz has evolved.

For Armin, look at his remix of As The Rush Comes, it sounds nothing like Communicate 3.

Everyone producer has his signature. Just like every rock band has their signature. U2 is more guilty than any current producer because they still use the same formula after 20 years. But nobody complains about them.


Quoting two songs from one producer does not prove your point im sorry. But mr schulz has been burning out his signiture fluffy prog sound for ages now. Also as the rush comes was released ages ago last year, and the remix sounds exactly the same as his remix of the 24 theme tune.

So please dont try and question my logic which is based on my own opinion funnily enough! Just because you like these artists dosnt mean they are suddenly original, which they are not. You want originality look at artists like junkie xl, peter, infusion, unkle.............
