No matter how good it sounds, even if it's 6:00/01 is forgivable but anything less then 6 shouldn't even be called an extended mix.Sounds great, but 5 mins is too damn short!
Sounds great indeed.

Lost in Trancelation
Meh, its.fine but it lacks rhytmic variety and a strong musical identiy.Its too one-dimensional and has this predictible structure and the sounds they use is almost always textbook/safe modern synths or drum presets.Its almost always the same with modern stuff even when its not generic/steroid stuff. Its good, but its never great. Its nice but its never exciting.
Its not enough with just sounding ok. Its not enough to just sound a little more slick/nuanced than normal weekly steroid trance. Im tired of producers that only seem to focus on production/technical side. Im tired of producers that just make trance so they can shoehorn into a specific substyle like that somehow turns into something good/credible just by doing it. Like here this is progressive trance that only slightly reminds you of the good old days but its stiill devoid of any soul and its just a bit safer and a bit boring and repetitiv and lets cut it to 5.mins so theres no journey bur it will probably work in a set. Dont try to develope any musical ideas into something bigger. Just make it good enough . Ive heard it once ive heard it all.
Wheres the raw musical talent?? Its like everyone just want to be good enough. Most producers seem to focus on quantity and realsing alot ob different labels but not specialise or get really good with one style, instead its just this good enough /safe approach with every project. You can count the ones that do try to stick out or that have actual musical talent or a bigger musical vision on your right hand.
I wanna hear stuff of this calibre again..make it unique, make it great, have a musical vision for it. And then i will gladly pay for it. Double up.
