It's good that you are ready to get some criticism on this because I have a load of it for you and take none of it personally :D
OK one thing to keep in mind which is this whole thing isn't a trance track, it sounds more like a one big and long intro into a trance track:
@4:50 I was expecting my headphones to explode (after almost 5 minutes of foreplay!) but you see they didn't, OK listened further into the track, track is over and my headphones are still intact, you see what I am saying ?
I am not sure if I can correctly call this a trance track where are those bass beats ?
Where are those powerful synths ?
7 minutes for this recursive content is too much.
You had a good start and as a listener I was expecting something that will rock me in my chair but you betrayed me and you never gave me that :P
Usually when a trance track is not exciting ( hard trance) there is a good chance it's maybe an uplifting track or something smooth.
But yours was neither it was just plain.
Sorry if I got carried away in the review but I hope you got my point which is this isn't trance.

Overall, sounds very much so like early trance which is a plus in my book. Cheesy,yes, but good idea's so far.
I like the bass synth, just a tad bit too much high frequencies on it in my opinion. More percussion and stronger deeper kick.
The beginning of the melody at 2:00ish rather dreamy, would be a very nice progressive trance track with a bit of mellow in it if it were slower
At around 2:30, another really nice dreamy synth aswell as the semi-break-beatish build-up coming in.
At around 4:20, it starts clipping realllllly bad, with the filtering, and holds back the buildup. Somewhat of a dissapointing restart of the track after that buildup. The kick really needs to be more deeper, and seems to be colliding with the FL Studio sounding bongo loop in the background therefore not making it that clean of a kick.
Overall this is really a 90's trance track, and it's a nice change over so much of the boring McProg trance out these days with horrible electro-house impersionations and boring synths and melodies. This one is atleast somewhat of an interesting and happy one.
Work on your eq'ing, don't overcompress, really limit your compression. Don't compress percussion and hats and don't overdo synths and basslines. A minor compression on the kick and master is fine, say 2:1 or 3:1 besides that it will really limit your track and make it muddy. But your kick really needs some "Umpf" and that buildup could be stronger where it leads to the climax. I would rearrange the filter or just leave it out and just go with drums as a buildup. |

| The offbeat clap in the center of the stereo field annoys/distracts me big time. |
