Hey guys, remember when TA absolutely exploded when a new Gouryella track appeared?

The only explosion I remember is Mattsanitys heart.

Wasn't the last Gouryella track pretty much a remix of System F - The Sonnet?

Ol' soccer-stadium trance.

This one reminds me of something too, but I can't place it.

makes my head feel like it's about to explode. anahera is the same way. no room for these ing tracks to breathe.
went back and listened to a few classics after, and suddenly felt like i was listening in surround sound. the listening experience was actually pleasurable, i could hear different sounds coming from different places... like i was listening to something from the future. sad.
tune itself is utter pap.

It's all about mastering. It's weird, everyone seems to have forgotten the art of mastering properly these days. The hi hats are almost invisible, the kick drums are either too soft or too hard, there's brick wall limiting on everything, sidechaining on everything, the EQ process doesn't seem to go beyond "put the lowest and highest frequency all the way up"...this is a problem with almost every 'trance' track that comes out now. It's all just very loud, sharp, muddy and generally unpleasant to listen to. Even a song that is musically very good can be destroyed by bad mastering.
Older trance doesn't seem to have this problem; the bass is always very clear, the drums and percussions are always audible, the synths don't clash even when they're drenched in effects and every sound is distinguishable.

Bear in mind that YT clip is from a radio show, which is compressed to oblivion.
rubez
yes, i'm not that daft. the track is out on beatport, i have it.
the YT clip is much easier on the ears funnily enough... more pleasant to listen to. the real track is ing HARSH! youtube's compression techniques are better than ferry's :stongue:
i don't recommend it, but if you already have the finished track, listen to it, then pick a random ferry classic to compare it to straight after.
i was listening to system f - cry and kosheen - catch ferry mix.
