[Freezer]

another stellar production, i like it right after the first listen

 

[Peenuts]

Melody is a bit basic on first listen. But it could be a grower.

I wasn't overly blown away by Polestar either on first listen, but it eventually turned out to be one i played regularly for the whole month.

 

[trancedanne]

Great track, the melody is very similar to another track i cant figure out atm

 

[Daysleeper]

Damn if this is not the best from him this year. Great use of the subtle acid and the melody really fits like a glove. Lets see if its a top tune or just good one after the full comes. Good to see he wasnt satisfied with only the pluck.

 

[s3baman]

Really fantastic piece, and as @Daysleeper mentioned, that acid is really changing the entire dynamics of the track

 

[Aquarium]

What. a. track!!!!

 

[aSeb]

What a great tune. This guy is on fire.

 

[PegaSus]

Well layered track once again! Up there with Polestar.

 

[Juna]

Very gooood

 

[Hensmon]

Lovely track, its the key change that makes it. Getting excited for his album now.

 

[Hoahoa]

Activa delivers again

 

[Archon]

Sounds empty to me. The ideas are ok, the melody flows nicely, it's just that there isn't that very many ideas, or they just aren't prominent enough. I'd like a little more harmonic balls in the track.

 

[Magdelayna]

Its ok - the melody is pretty basic though,and using quite default sounding synths. Id like to hear building different synths coming into the main melody as it progresses,but it never happens.

 

[Propeller]

Typical activa track - great technically but the concept isn't there. It's just generic and lacking any kind of feeling from the heart and a musical journey. I'd contrast this to his peer OUT - Glynn Alan - Limitless [Pure Trance] a real musical journey and great ideas.

 

[Jetflag]

loving the sharp pluck melody. very clear.

 

[james864]

I have the impression that Rob is probably using the Giuseppe Ottaviani style all the time. Every new track is a style fucked from Pizza known as Giuseppe Ottaviani.

It's not bad and it's ear-catching. Like in the old days, but the same style all the time. Maybe he would switch to Solar Movement and make a little slower rhythms like Where We Dream.

Weird, i dont like it as much hearing the extended hq (?) compared to the lower quality one.

The acids doesnt sound as smooth anymore, its more in-your-face and too much punchy for me. the kick is unplesant in a weird way, also. its not the steroid-kick problem here, more that the kick is unpleasant to my ears. Its too snappy,muted and kinda plasticky, Like its cut off too much but too punchy at the same time.

I think i just miss just an ounce of dynamic range. Its even not even present in the less steroid trancers anymore.
