    What I wanna know is how the fuck came up with this thing when you have pauses between the chords? Every single track in this style have the same big power chords with very little variaton. Its barely a melody at all.

    Well "Endorphin" is terrible, that same of Anjuna crap. All sounds the same. I like the groove on "Shadows" and its a decent track. Nothing special but luckily not the typical Anjuna sound on it.

    Totally agree here, that stupid power chord shit is what everything on Anjunabeats is now. The melody is like a filler for the breakdown and then the same old power chord - pause - chord - pause crap comes in. All sounds the same. No top line over the chords either, if it does, its filtered in the background nearing the end of the drop before that trousy section returns.

    Endorphin is stupidly bad knowing how great tracks he can make. What a fall from grace.

    'Shadows' is ok for a House track but 'Endorphin'....well...havnt we got past this sound yet? Why does that stabby melody always have to be the same,whatever the track....its like the producer HAS to use that certain template.

    Before "Shadows" goes into full-blown trouse, sounds a bit like Chunk & Twist. Over all, same thoughts; quite disappointed.

    Endorphin is poor; Shadows is mediocre.

    This is pure commercial EDM. There is nothing housey or trancey about these track. It's cheap dance music. No soul, no love in these tracks. It sounds shallow and dull. I guess both Trance and House are suffering the from the same disease of losing their identity...

    Here is what House Music really sounds like.

    What you posted are classic house tracks, just like trance has changed and does not sound like in 90s early 00s, also house music has evolved and borrowed elements from various styles.
