well me for a start hehe,but as most people here i listen to a lot of tunes and you rarely hear a track with them in it. :wtf:

i think people underestimate the power they can make to a track
some of the big guns have made a name for them selfs m.i.k.e airwave sean tyas ect

so i say bring back the riffs ;)

What the hell are you talking about? You mean the 3-minute-long breakdowns? We've already got more than enough of those, thanks.

I don't think he's talking about those...

Are you talking about a big 16 bar melody?

Huge, recognisable hooks are great.

There are a lot of great sounding trance songs which have no hook, and that's okay. But I do love songs with massive hooks, where you only need to hear a second or two to recognise it - songs like Ferry Corsten's "Punk", Public Domain's "Operation Blade", ATB's "9pm (til I come)" and so on...

riff is such a poorly defined term. of course there are great sounds out there that somebody might consider a riff and of course people like them. there are (this goes for anything right now) much more bad "riffs" out right now than good ones tho (by a long shot)
