We're going to start the 32-bracket off right with some real energy, this time.


More than 50 patterns, and 12 individual VSTs were used. All of the vocal samples were obtained by purchase and edited by yours truly, akin to the fashion of my previous track Tribu, which is what got me into this competition in the first place!


Enjoy <3

Easily your best work and my all time favorite.
In fact, stumbling on this song one day got me into the techno scene. You opened my world, thank you. Keep it up m8! Be proud, be bold, be alive!

I like the airy synths and energy at the beginning. The harmonic content is a little slow to develop, and at times I thought the bass was a little loud (especially at around :52), but I’m enjoying the clean production quality and atmosphere. The first minute and change of the piece sounds very transitional, and I kept waiting for some stronger melodic content or a distinct moment of arrival. The part at 1:54 definitely had potential to become just that, but the foregrounded content there didn’t seem very novel. This piece gets very repetitive after awhile. The vocals at 2:56 were a refreshing addition to the texture, but the piece is still sparse for melodic content and harmonic variety. I think you could’ve done a lot more with the composition of the piece in terms of storytelling and structural contrast. I also think that both the intro and the end of the piece could’ve been smoother, as opposed to throwing the listener into the middle of the action and cutting off suddenly, respectively. Still, I really like the sound design, mixing, and flow of the piece. I just think you never quite hit this piece home where all the elements came together. Still solid work! Keep at it, Snapski. :)

Nice one. I'd like to post it on my Youtube channel.

SnapskiMusic responds:

I've got that covered, but thank you for the interest, and I'm glad you dig the track!

Great

Probably the best hard trance piece I've ever heard on NG. Great job
