Well, it's a pretty nice emotional trip. My most obvious problem with it is how short it is, and how the beat doesn't actually pick up until 2/3 of the way in. Maybe it's just not my preference. But tbh it didn't feel like you took it quite as far as you could've, I think you should've kicked it off with what you did in the outro, built up the intensity steadily, then dropped off into the half speed part with the vocals, so basically just more traditional trance format. You were probably trying to go a different direction from what is normally done, but I think it's kind of limiting the song's potential. Sometimes there's a reason everyone does something a certain way. That's the only real problem I can think of though, the song itself is beautiful, instruments are very well balanced.

Long time no see Gonzo!
Its good to see another submission from you as always :)
tho i feel like the singer is just a tiny bit off at some points.
But i also know how hard it is for a producer to blend vocals into a track,
so dont take it too hard on yourself ;)
I like what you did, you started small and opened up the track with nice saw wave synths great bass and epic 90's pluck i hear, superb!

Long time no review dude! The track is great and a refreshing twist on trance which works, well done man! My only comment would be to have the vox slightly sidechained to the kick to help it come through as it sounded a bit buried in the climax, do that and u get my extra 0.5 star, great job man!

Dj-Gonzo responds:

Hey D00FY! It's been a while isn't it?

Glad you enjoyed the track, we had issues regarding the sidechain with the vocals, it didn't turn out as well as I wanted it to be, so I had to put it away for the Trance part. I know it might sound a bit "raw" and covered this way, but the other way around could have turn out way worse. Anyway, thanks for the advice, I'll train my sidechain skills for the next time. ;D

needs the slow intro to be cut off at least by the 1:00 mark not like 2:00 leaves the rest of the song sounding rushed and short

Dj-Gonzo responds:

Thanks for your review! The true meaning of the song is to evolve from a ballad to an uplifing trance track, I know it is not the usual kind of structure, but it is intentional within the lyrics to see that kind of transition from a sad feeling to a optimistic point of view. I am sorry if you didn't enjoy what you've listened. Anyway, thanks for listening! :)

Dis is beautiful

Dj-Gonzo responds:

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it :D
