VA - IWD Comp vol 4 [Radiant Records]

[m_st]

I remember that last year members here discussed and enjoyed vol 3, so I will share vol 4, which after skim through is somehwat of a mixed bag and will be hit or miss for some. A mix of house, prog,breaks, dnb and trance influences to be found. Here's 2 I like.

Aiden Francis - One Night Stay

Hyperaktivist - De Desamor y de Miel

Overall, I think I like last year's comps better.

 

[TRANCEBLASTER]

haven't found any favorite on this one, many cheap ideas here and there, also 'Maruwa' din't make it this time(

but check out this sweet little tune, it will take you into summer 1997, the producer behind is 'Spray'

the mix is called 'Ibiza Mix' but IMHO it has more the 90s feeling of 'Balaton' or any other east european lake.)

Spriitzz - Where R U (Ibiza Mix)

 

[Redrot]

Yeah this one's not nearly as good as 3 for me. I liked the diversity on 3, this one's pretty dance-centric and most of the tunes are pretty forgettable to me.

I feel like we're starting to reach the point in the developmet of this scene where we're getting a decent amount of copycatting/cloning, less effort on sounding unique. Not that it's as bad as it is in modern trance but a lot of these all kind of mesh together in my head. Most of the dancey standouts have been posted here, I also like Maruwa's.

 

[Hensmon]

Aiden & Baraka's track my fav

Yeah same here. Comp feels a bit wobbly or uninteresting in general
