I personally think it's beautiful. It's been a long time since I've worked this quickly on a piece and have it in a finished quality that I'm proud of in only 2 sittings.

This song is R4R, if you review it, I'll review something of yours. I promise! I want as much feedback as I can possibly get to improve on this and make it absolutely perfect!

(EDIT: Updated kick to not drown out the song / Mudding)

(Edit2: Whats going on? People download it but no reviews and so many listens? If you're going to vote a 3 tell me why!)

(edit3: Changed the snare)

I really dig the progression that you used, it doesn't get repepetive to my ears and is really nice, i also liked that choice of synths used, the mix is also pretty clean on my setup, the only fault i can see in this track is the percussion. Specifically, the splashy snare. Even when you changed the percussion in every segment of the song, that splashy snare took all the attention and made it sound the same for the entire duration of the track. Aside from that, i really like this.

I've been futzing around with the snare, and I think I've come to a final. It's still splashy, but panned off to the right a bit and silenced. I also cut the tail off a bit and killed the clap along with it.

I should be uploading it soon here.

Nice intro, relaxing, peaceful, chilling!
Nice beat, clean, slow, and goes along well with the melody.
1:55 - That spot really is awesome dude, nice work,
2:16 - Back to the chills
Finale seems good here and it's not very curt
I don't have any notices here, i think it's a pretty good piece.

Nice song, but it's honestly not trance. This would be drumstep. (94/188 BPM is still drumstep?) Other than that, it's pretty good. Overall, it's not repetitive, which I personally really like! I like the sidechaining on the kick, personally like that as well. I know you'd say you'd review my tracks if I reviewed yours, but I just like to review a lot of songs in general, so no need. Keep up the good work!

aCeta responds:

Drumstep huh? Never thought of that.
I'll see what others say - I'd just put it as general techno but that sounds lame.
