Lakeus - Mindtwista ( 128 kbps ) Right-click and "save as target"
If someone wants to remix it or play it somewhere please PM me and I can send you a 320 kbps-version.

Hey mate,
First of all thanks for the comment on my track :)
Just listened to your track. I am not that much into psy but I do have to say there are some elements in this piece. The whining sound is superb, the melody is quite gripping. I love the original hook of you using some sort of broken violin as the main lead. I love that. Overall the energy is also pretty good. So it is a nice listen.
You need to take a look at the volumelevels a bit, the track is too loud and therefore not as pleasant a listen. Also u seem to end the track at a certain point but then u start again. My reccomendation is, no do not start it again. U had created an oroginal and great end, leave it at that ;) It is an art to know when to end a track haha.
Cheers Lakeus! |

I love the sounds in the intro. They're all so rich. What is that lead sound? It sounds like some traditional instrument.
I like the buzzing on the bassline.
1:58 was kinda confusing, rhythmically.
Nice formant filtering at 2:36. Gives a wonderfully trippy effect.
I like the key changes at 2:53.
Wow. This song is so detailed and full. There are so many things to hear. I'm just amazed.
Those strings are literally giving me goosebumps. This song just gets energy and keeps on pumping.
The breakdown feels kinda anticlimactic. I would have kept the beat going in some capacity, because the way the energy just petered out like that was a real letdown after that amazing midsection.
Heh, nice techy outro.
Yeh, definitely work on the breakdown. Something about it just felt wrong, and it was so disappointing after that breathtaking main section. |

Hey lakeus,
looking forward to hearing your new tune.
so commenting as I listen...
Good intro, like someone mentioned afore, the whining sound is great. Awesome use of strings.
Kick and bass work very well on this track.
Wow. What a great atmosphere in the beginning. You've put the sounds together extremely well, in my opinion mixing is very solid here.
at 2:20 everything gets more psyish. And the Delay Lama in the background ;) ... fortunately its only for a short time and doesnt dominate too much. (no offense against you or the Delay Lama itself but IMO its one of the most overused instruments in Psy).
4:30 is a nice passage, great crescendo towards 5:00, really dig this stuff!... maybe the melodies are getting a little heavy here, but since your track is focused on melodies its okay IMO ;)
Oh, and then a small breakdown at that point? didnt expect that, but it works. The ending part is awesome Psy, with great FX.
Great track. Sounds like theres a lot of detailed work in this. This one will enter my playlist. If you somewhen got the time, you could send me the 320 link. Keep it up! :) |

intro is nice sounds like a arabian war movie.
think the kick may need a bit more eq. percs are nice.
very experimental imo like the different sounds you've used. its got a real good vibe going on. dont no whats going to happen next.
its similar to my work in that you like to keep changing the track, always have new things happening. i think music like this is much more listenable.
enjoyable track mate
keep it up

hey again! :)
intro is good. this tune seems more my taste!
alot of nice elements in this tune but the lil melody gets a bit repetetive.
that bass sound is cool :).
delay lama ^^.
your bass has a lil hiss on it ;).
this tune is really groovey!
i like the way you fade in the saw!
now the flute plays to :) nice touch.
lol flutes sounds hilarous!
i hear you have flanged the bass to.
flute sounds a bit humoristic though ^^.
pluck feels very trancey.
good job. nice tune ;). |

Hey,
Diging the intro, pretty ethnic, Arabian&Asian feeling, it sounds nice but sounds more like music for videogames than a comercial tune imo. If you can get some ethnic vocals and add them would kick ass, interesting use of the synths, my prefered one is the sliced one, I concur about the delay lama and the break, lol is funny the sliced flute at thje break.
In overall, nice tune, would fit perfectly for a videogame, but I dont find it enought good like to use it comercially in my very personal opinion, but it's a really fun and fresh production, keep it up ;).
Kopi =o. |

Sound like you had alot of fun doing this. Many elements and variations never makes it really boring.
not my type of trance though, but I like that its shifting alot, never gets boring.
like the synth at 7.10, if that is in the track all the time, boost it up..otherwise bring it into the track on more places. love it. |

I second this. It reminds me of desert, sun and epic fights.
When listening to this, I think about Drizzt Do'Urden fighting Artemis Entreri...:thepirate
good one. |
