Description : If life is merely perceived through the senses, then how do we know what is truly real? If this is the case, then is synesthesia (a mixing of the senses) not simply another valid extension of our own reality?
Well, second trance track folks! Sequenced a few drums, recorded some nice synth lines, arpeggiated some more monosynths, added a shitload of cool effects, recorded some more stuff, added in some buildups, and last but not least some bass! And yeah this is the resultant love-child of those guys. All recorded in PROTOOLS!
I'm still starting off down the long road of electronic music, and reviews and tips would be MUCH APPRECIATED! If you think its great, tell me! If you think its a steaming pile of shit, feel free to say as well! Anyways, please listen all the way through, its worth it!
look forward to your reviews!

I like this man.. good build good breaks.. bassy deff a trancey feel.. The only way i know to push uniqueness is go for what people havent heard yet.. and using different synths and sounds that are different if you can.. im more hiphop and rap but i sill enjoyed it.. good job on constructing and mastering it.. good shit - gotti
yeah this is really good all round pretty much! Only thing missing for me was I didn't find myself connecting with it on an emotional level...i.e didn't give me shivers..which I believe is what trance should do at some point in a song, plus keep you wanting more...All the melodies you have in here are great!! Although I feel a bit too full on...take them back a bit, and introduce them bit by bit...so when the full melody hits you its like you've been waiting for it for ages....thats what really gives impact!!
sure thing man, i will give ur tracks a listen, but for now i must sleep cause it is 4 int eh morning!! please give my track 'new contact' a listen, if you have time and tell me what you think?? -Lorin
tremendous production for as new you are to the field.
you have a good grasp of structuring and mastering so far, now it's time for some substance.
i'm looking forward to your other materials, and i'll be sure to review honestly.
thanks a lot man!! i am fairly new at making techno in genral, that was my first real attempt at trance. I have just uploaded a new track called 'New Context' I beleive this hardcore track to be my best track so far, could you tell me what you think?
Sorry I havent reviewed you back lately, college been rough. I would say you got this genre down pat if your already making songs like this on your 2nd one!
Lets see on the mix, that synth that comes in at 1:36 is a little too loud, maybe drop it a db or two (it seems to loud relative the rest of the mix). It comes in again at 322 I think with the same problem.
And when you stop the kick after 345 or so, I would instead keep it going there. The complete stop without another break is kinda awkward unless you were fading the kick out for the outro.
Overall very nice job though. Way better then my 2nd song.
hey thatks alot dude! yeah i wa kind of thinking the same thing with the kick stopping, but i couldnt realy think of a way to kind of ease into it so yeah. Thanks a lot for the review!
Hi Lorin!
This track Synesthesia is far from a "steaming pile of crap"..in fact it's very well done though it does sound somewhat familiar as a lot of Trance is...
Well mixed..lots of breaks and hooks make it interesting..
Cheers!
Description : Big thanks to Justze3 who released the four loops to his drake ovo style piece because he didn't plan to finish it, challenge accepted. I would also like to thank LankFrampard for the extra drum loop and av3 for the sample "trapped" which gave a lot of extra feel to the song.
Description : I really liked ABOE Musics (looperman member) cinematic track so i give it a go and after many hours in last few days this is it.
My RMX of his great track. Maybe i tweak it more in future.
Really enjoyed in making it.
It's Trance-ish House i guess LOL.
Enjoy!
Love and peace.
Description : this song is the last i created. I wanted to remix the famous "the chase" from the movie "midnight express, i love the original sound! i don't know if the result is enough good but i'm proud to say that all has been composed by myself: the instrumental parts, the arrangements, melody, recording and mixing. I hope you'll enjoy it! don't hesitate to let a comment after listening :)
Description : Progressive song that I made a few weeks ago. Tried to make an uplifting sommer song. I know it is nothing original but like the flow in it.
Description : Used loops from MHYST trance sequence 8,2 and Goa. Dune 2 Vst. also thanks to Fibonacci 1.1618

MHYT has a series look him up under trance sequence
Description : A relaxed Trance-Trible-Electro-Wave track. Feel the power of the alien tribe connection. Dance your dream or dream your dance. Just be part of the connection.
This is what you get when i try to make a Free Radical song.
In the end, it does not sound like something I've ever heard from him.
But it was, after all, a try.
Thus, it is not completely different, ´cause i have not sung this time.
And it is electronic music but .....
However, I like the resulting song. Hope you too. Only 1 sample was used here - Anubis-Anubis-Loop all the synth´s are played by me and i added some drumsounds with powerdrums2 played by myself Comments are sure welcome.
Description : A drum and bass, electronic something or other inspired track. The main Melodies taken from short loops I cut from some sessions my bro &e's recordings he had made at my location. I had been meaning to use his sounds for a minute and he said it would be cool. Finally did.

Description : Another attempt in my continuing efforts to learn how make a trance track. Is intended to have a vocal doing the melody. Would try to find a singer but need to work out lyrics first. For this track I tried to make the melody not too repetitive. I limited it to four bars max of the same melodic phrase.
Description : This is a remix with permission, which goes to a contest. Basically progressive house with trance elements. The download option will be avaiable after the contest closes.
Update: mastering and mixing redone! it should work, well hope so. Update 2: now it must work! no more compression (at leas I think), not really satisfied with the waveform, but maybe it`s okay! Thanks for the help people!
Nice work tho for your second trancer!!

take care.
