EDIT: What do you know, Weekly 5th! And I wasn't even trying! :D Thanks for your votes everyone, and enjoy!
Don't forget not to judge by the intro, which might be a bit minimal for the tastes of some of you out there. Skip a minute or two in if you have to. :P

This is a full (as full as it'll get, anyway) version of the 30-second demo of Form I submitted a while back, under a new name.
I changed my mind about this track. Instead of finishing up the lyrics and recording the vocals, I decided I'd submit it as it was, as I personally hate the sound of it. There's been a Maximus on the Master Channel all along, I didn't know better when I started making it, but I do now - and for this track, I've become dependent on it. The mixing sounds bad as it is, but horrible without it to a point it'd take a huge amount of effort to bring it back. :( What's more, the Newgrounds player makes it sound really weird... fans and critics, download the file to hear how it really sounds. I'll pick it up again if people experienced in mixing say that the mix sounds fine, but I doubt it'll happen.
Anyway, it's your standard, fast-progressing, Radio Edit (no, there's no Original or Club mix) of an Uplifting Trance song, with a slightly "rawer" (though in a good way) touch to it compared to most other tracks - listen to the intro, with the bass and square synths and you'll hear what I mean. Influences included a few big names I had been listening to when I started this song, namely Armin van Buuren's song This World is Watching Me (which inspired the square) and Benny Benassi's Satisfaction (which inspired the idea of the mix that didn't turn out so well). Later on, Pulstate's old style (you can hear it in some of his submissions here on Newgrounds) influenced it as well.
If you hear any empty-sounding parts (for example, where the drums exit for the breakdown) that's where I had vocals planned, so keep that in mind.
I think that's about it. Enjoy. :D
