any of you guys want to share some of your progressive trance tips?
i have been doing a lot of uplifting trance lately but want to start producing some progressive tracks soon say in a couple weeks. (mainly ambient ,dark progressive type tracks. even some psychadelic tracks).
a few characteristics i noticed ,
there is no super saw lead
the lead is more dark grittier
lot of distoriton is used
the bass is more over powering,more funky and hass lots of movement
a lot more percussion and fx is used
and the over all structure is different ,its more envolved.
anyone else want to add your tips. |

Could be wrong because I don't pay much attention to genres etc. but:
I think progressive tracks often just keep building and building, rather than trance which breaks down and builds up. Progressive tracks are llike a really long build up.
They also use very different sounds, stuff which is more off the wall than normal trance, closer to house really, a favourite seems to be really woody sounding plucks, eg blue tubes by hydroid.
Er, may add more if I think of anything. |
