Thanks for that andrew, its much appreciated.
parafrnalia, im quite new to this type of music, so the track is quite minimal in terms of whats used in it, but i wouldnt really know then how to catergorize it again, i could leave that for your own opinion! |

I'm on it right now, not bad at all, I quite like it.
Let me run this few more time, this is tough one. |

Damn, can’t break this one, it is not easy. So many things I like in this song and still doesn’t feel right. Base melody is awesome (a spatially at 2:55), pad I quite like it and …….??????. This is the part I’m missing.
That 2:55, I think, if you work around this melody (setup and all instruments) that would be great.
This could be big one, but for me everything should be build around this part from “2:55”.
I would love to hear the final product. Keep working on it, this could be your first big one man. |

Thanks again |

| nice stuff! you have some really clear, crisp and great sounds in here. My only problem with the track is that it is a little bland. So many people are using this stabby progressive synth sound now a days, and besides the baseline and percussion (which are both great) you don't have much more going on in the track. If you bring in some movement behind your pad I think you can make this a bit more interesting, but besides that its sounding really good! |

PS.
You seem to do this near the end.. after the drop and whatnot.. but the middle of the song is long and drawn out, without much going on. Its a great track though! such a clean sounding synth do you mind telling us how you made it? |

Thanks for the feedback Tomas
You have a really good point with the middle of the track, i was actually thinking that it may be too long, well... too long without anything different happening. I will however be looking into this and hope to sort it out to keep it more interesting in that part of the track.
The synth sound is pretty much simplistic if i must be honest. I used 2 instances of sylenth. 1 bassy kinda synth which i added a lil more low end to to keep the track moving, sylenth patch (Booka) believe it or not!
And also another synth to add a more sharper high ended sound in "classic trance" so that when i held the release on the two synths, this would bring more power and urgency to that particular part.
Thanks again for listening mate, and to everyone who has currently helped out with great constructive critism. |

| The critisism is correct, it's too little action in this track. Too long break for just one instrument, even if it's supposed to minimal, and there is no climax part after the break. I like the melody and percussion also, but the kinda boring way it's presented should be changed. Bring more small details, cuz it's the details that count in minmial tracks. |
