Cygnus X - Superstring [1993]

[dmgtz96]

Great, happy track from trance's early days. I have no clue how Cygnus X created a "supersaw"-like sound years before that concept was invented.

Somebody else post the Rank 1 remix.

Rank 1's mix is beautiful indeed, another tune I have fond memories of. I also really like the padlike melody on the original, which is undoubtedly a stellar production in itself.

I will be the minority on this one: for me the Rank 1 Remix is miles better than the original. Its magical, wonderfully produced, a timeless classic.

I have the same with Positron 2002, which I like much more than the old 90’s version. Although with both tracks I appreciate them for what they were, considering they are so old, when trance was almost non-existent.

 

[Julian Del Agranda]

They belong in one topic. So I will merge them.

I recently managed to get an interview with Matthias Hoffman from Cygnus X about "Superstring". Online later this month on my YT channel!

The best mix of Superstring IMO is the H.C.L. remix by Oliver Lieb, also from 1993.

At least you're not alone... Loooove the Rank 1 Remix

Future Breeze remix is also nice, so german
