Freezer, everytime we seem to agree! I'm more a melodic house freak, BUT an impossible dream came true with this track. I NEVER expected them to make a tune like in 1999 in such a serious motivated way :D !! Can't get any better!

Will be a long wait before it’s released I’m afraid😢
Not sure if you are being sarcastic but why do you even care? I have to say even tracks by @Bobby Summa A New Breath Short WIP 2 sounds a googleplex times better than this turd. Bobby's track has subtly and emotions you can tell he has spent time on it but this tracks by these 3 legends sounds so amateurish that only the lowest common dominator will like it.

Thats very cool if you are not sarcastic mate :)
When I heard it for the first time I was immaditely interested, the melody is something special. Second time i loved it.
Third time when Armin played it twice on the latest ASOT episode i was completely blown away. This track really is the best one I heard this year...

I didn't completely hate this, honestly. That said, the end result just sounds like Benno made everything while the rest of them (Armin, Ferry, Ruben) were just sitting in the producer's cuck chair.

Just listened to the preview. I can appreciate some stylistic choices, but honestly for me it's not worth a second listen. There's much better trance out there that does go back to its roots, and is richer in actual musical content (other than a mAiN mElOdY). Not my style either.

There are two videos, 12 hours in total, so why you even try to guess this? Everyone can see the proof, that the melody = Armin, submelody = Ferry, Ruben had some good points, Benno basically did what they said, so yeah he is like the one who put it togehter. But the whole idea of the melody is Armin

I didn't say that it was actually just Benno, just that the end result sounds like it was made by just Benno. I saw the videos 😄

I think they shouldve let Ferry do most of the production of the drums,loops,percs etc - i think he wouldve taken it totally old skool. When Benno & Ruben were making the intro,it became too modern sounding. Still pretty decent though imo.

Just heard how it was played in ASOT. Don’t like what they did to the end product.

That Ferry/Gouryella lead sounds awesome. But it’s drawn into the back of the mix when the kick comes with that bleepy synth.

why not let that beautiful synth shine ?
