nice track, definatly creative melody a couple suggestions

- try for a bit more bottom end sound, there isnt much bass in teh track but that my have been your goal

- tone down teh bongos a bit, they seem to overpower your lead synths

teh effects you have added to your synths sound really good.

keep up the good work

thanks colonelcrisp. :p Good advise. Im considering adding another bass layer to it. The bass on this mp3 really does sound muffled....

I have a fetish to tweek racks, scolling through sounds & adding effects to morph sounds. It is a fetish that can sometimes be a huge time waster :p Too much fun without getting anyting done!!

You are right. I do not think this track is suited for a night club. It is more of a cruising track whilst driving or a mental ride for when youre chillen out. I beleive trance needs to evolve & I will not limit myself to 'dance' tracks. This one is going down a techtrance road without boundarys, regulations or limitations.

I will have a think about putting more variations into the melody. Maybe parts will be helped by adding intelligent midrange poly-synth layers.... I will also take onboard the percussion suggestion. How the song is driven is very important. Thankyou for bringing this to my attention.

I appreciate this reply Axolotyl. thnx :p :p


Hey no problemo, always happy to review a fellow aussie =) I know what you mean though. I really love the uplifting sound but I feel trance really needs to start evolving too if its going to survive. I dont think trance has ever died, but its had periods of stagnation and I'm afraid we're starting to head into one of those now. Good to see people not afraid to experiment and like you say... tweak the hell out of their sounds rather than just dialing up a supersaw.

I'll definately keep an eye out for more of your productions. I too am 'trying' to blend in some psy elements to other genres. Hopefully I'll be able post up one of my messes soon for you to check out ;)

All the best with your productions mate!

Lol, what a wicked production.

I can't say i'll be listening allot to it, but once or twice is sure refreshing.

Some things sound a bit random to me, like the choir but meh, who cares :)

Indeed a very original trancer here. I like the wicket percussion in it, the melodies are nice too, but sometimes they get a bit too strange imo. Nice techy feel to it (a bit of a Kraftwerkian sound with all the acid and bleeps). Well, i don't know what you were smoking when you made this;) , but i think it turned out as a bit strange, but very original trance track.

download-link doesn't work for me.. Neither does the streaming :conf:

listening:

not much power in the kick there, bongos are cool, as usuall it takes some time to get used to the "melodic" elements u got int there.. i think there could have been some more float and drive to the percussions here.. i like the way t3h melodies builds it self up.. the part with the pers raid on about 6:30 is really cool, the whole things sounds a bit random maybe (a bit) i could have imagined some really sharped edged sounds coming in later in the track, its a bit repetetive as i think u could have added something else to make the listener wait for, as u did in around 6:30...

Claps-to clapy:rolleyes: :conf:
Bongo drums-cool
intro-to liquid
Idea-very cool,but from my opinion need a little more pads(harmonic painting)
Flanger-to much

Good work,thnx...keep goooooiiiin

Fot the end: I liked...sound is'nt undergroundy,but I think Idea IS.

:cool:

This could be actually a new style of trance, or maybe a new style of music!! That is a good thing IMO.

It IS original, when I began to listen to it, I thought it was very weird for my taste, and still is, I can feel the melody but sometimes it confuses me.

Production wise there is nothing I can really point out, is well produced mate, perhaps due that it was revised before I had the chance to check the first version.


Not my cup of tea, and not sure if this is trance evolving, I'd rather say it is another style of trance being born.

:)

this is pretty out there and it distorts a lot. Has some elements of trance that are kind of intriguing, but not my preffered style...
Also there seems to be no progression anywhere, there's the same melodic line for 7minutes...
Axolotyl
Just listened to the revision. It sounds a lot clearer and the percs seem a lot tighter. Nice work.

Is the intro different too? It seems to have a bit of a buildup there. Cool, it certainly has more pogression and drive now and I would say its a lot more dancable too.

Infact its got a fairly strong Sphongle feel to it (aka Simon Posford). Good work dude. Definately one of the more original productions I've seen on these boards =)
