all the shit Armin releases

[tranceissomewhatalive]

I thought it's about time there's a thread where we can post the weekly slop from the belowed king of trance to prevent excessive garbage threads in the upcoming releases section

to begin with, a very fresh and innovative cover of Depeche Mode classic:

the beat and synthwork is so unique, nothing like every drumcode or afterlife release in past year

What's that one where he gets the crowd waving in a ping pong like motion? It might even be called ping pong but I wouldn't know because I don't listen to shite. All this mainstage stuff in general is like McDonald's whereas I'm just out here craving something a bit more chateaubriand

he has one called that indeed but it's released in 2014, he must have released about a thousand of tracks since then, loads of future classics 🫠

 

[facade1984]

Jesus is that how old that tune is? As I get older I find that time works a bit too fast and I don't like it

Anyway, this man gave us tunes like communication, blue fear and that awesome remix of cygnus x positron. Shame he sucks so much now

 

[Progrez]

It started with this and I cringe with this song, the title is self explanatory. I can't post anymore I would lose far too many brain cells. Armin and his buddies make Electronic Pop Slop I am going to call it that now rather than trance or trance 2.0.

 

[Pokkryshkin]

I stopped listening to his radio show only because it plays his tracks they're just impossible to listen to, honestly.

 

[Archon]

Ah, it's "I hate Armin" season again. I wondered what happened to this forum, there were no big rants about him for quite a while.

To be fair, this is the first time I've seen a topic about specific artist pin pointing how bad his tracks have become over the years. To answer your question, nothing happened. I think he is just letting off steam.

The irony is that OP posted a couple months ago and here we are.

do we really need a thread to each new Armin garbage he shits out every Friday?

 

[tranceissomewhatalive]

last night I checked the latest asot tracklist and that shit cover of Depeche Mode he 'did' with some silver panda twat really pissed me off, so yeah, knowing this is my normal reaction for new armin shit I thought it would be ergonomic to have this common thread instead of polluting the upcoming releases board

The intro ASOT is so annoying too it's so ear piercing. The only good track he played was rapid eye.

People say that old trance cannot be played alongside other tracks for modern audiences.

This thread is not about Armin. It’s about self-righteousness.

 

[facade1984]

I'm a self righteous motherfucker

 

[Magdelayna]

Lets see all your tracks,instead of slating others

 

[facade1984]

They're all AI so probably not your thing

I'm happy if this thread offends some peasants

I always catch myself thinking whenever I randomly put on an old episode of ASOT how original the music sounded back then. Those were original melodies, unlike anything else... And at the same time, when I listen to all these upcoming releases, I only get that feeling of "Yeah, I've heard this somewhere before . or it sounds like..." Even from young guys trying to make a genuine old-school sound. What's wrong with you guys? Can't you write your own melody? Why wasn't this a problem back in the day? Even a fucking AI can come up with original melodies...

Back then it was a different time. They had a bunch of aliases and they felt more free I think. We didn't have social media, Youtube back then


Episode 087 is even better.
