I'm working on a remix of a classic trance track (from 2004 I believe).

I like the style of Solarstone and Andy Moor and wanted to do a remix in that style. Let me know what you think.

Hi Dylan

Great job so far.

Who's the vocalist?

There are many things I would suggest your work on.

First of all you should nail the foundation of the track: the kick + bassline.
I'm not sure about the percussion elements you have - they seem a bit loud. I'm not crazy about the snaps. You should try getting a more trancy percussion. Try see if you can layer a nice percussion loop below the other elements (open hat and clap). Add more effects with crash cymbal and reverse cymbals.

Vocal and melodies are great - you should keep that.

Last part is the arrangement. Try finding a similar track you like and use it as a reference for your song structure.

Here's a vocal track I'm working on: https://soundcloud.com/martin-leblanc-eigtved/nothing

Thanks, man!

I use Logic Pro X. For this track I tried to stay away from the typical Sylenth and Spire combination. I wanted to get this warm analog feel to it. Bassline is a combination of Omnisphere and Virus. The leads are Diva. 303 acid is from Phoscyon. Pads are Omnisphere. There's a strummed guitar playing from a Kontakt library.

I have no clue what this genre is and it doesn't matter if. What matters is that you like it.

I think it has some good elements. I would perhaps try making the bassline more techno style. The acid is nice, but maybe I cut out some low end of it.

What do you think? Mixdown is probably pretty bad :-p

WIPs / Progress on tech trance track

So, we have now made a lead for the track. There is also a small sample from a move in the intro.

Let me know what you think of the new lead and of the sample fits or is too much.

That's a good idea ... I think the track needs a more interesting arrangement + add something new that the original don't have.

Btw. here's a new version of the track: https://cl.ly/0U2l0k2b0e1F

Samples/Plugins/Software/Gear / Re: Headphones or Speakers ?
« on: October 02, 2016, 08:32:08 pm »
I would say both. The stereo image is a bit easier to nail on headphones, but often you can get a better feel of the low end with good speakers. I don't think quality headphones or speakers are cheap. My recommendation would be:

Headphones: Beyerdynamic 990 250 ohm. (the ohm is important)
Speakers: Yamaha HS5 or HS7 depending on your room.

Yeah, the melody is from another track I did called The Martian. I originally did it in a Coldharbour style progressive, but thought it might fit a tech trance style track :)

Thanks!
