This is my latest original track that was released. Bit of a progressive number:

I like it, it sounds like classic trance or progressive. I really like the melodic sounds and the break at 3:00.

I feel like the kicks could hit a little bit harder, and the bass could be a bit louder, but that might be the style you're going for.

I'd like to hear more variation in the melody (or another melody) -- it gets a bit repetitive at 7 minutes long. But then again it really has that classic trance sound and lots of those tracks were very repetitive. At the least the main lead (the one that comes in at 3:32 during the break) could be varied a bit -- automate a filter, play it at a lower octave, etc... Or, I like how it plays a different note at 4:03 -- more little musical variations like that would help.

Overall very nice, though, it has kind of a relaxing Ibiza type vibe. Really fits in with the trance I listened to in the 90s and early 2000s.

Really chill and nice. I like the strings and pads you have floating in the back of the track. It's sidechained nicely and everything has it's place.
