don't even need to watch the video. this is a great, great tune. such good peak hour business. extremely overplayed, but that obviously doesn't affect my rating of it. I also really like how they save the big guns for the end of the track after the breakdown. the way the riff really goes nuts after the big breakdown is what turned me on to this track in the first place.

my only serious criticism of this track is where the beat drops into the breakdown at 4:00. WAAAAAY too steep a drop off, and then it takes far too long for the track to come back in again. I edited the first half of the buildup out of the track for the version I play and it sounds WAY better.

8/10

Lucio Aquilina and Venturi - Disco Bus (Roland M.Dill remix)
 
7.5/10

i like the old school sound, or feel it has.

the stretchy acid lines, and squelches.

reminds me of growling mad scientist, meets infected mushroom.

with some more industrial hues.

Apparat - Arcadia

Edit: video kinda gets in the way of the imagination.

7/10 Great chill out track, this is the kind of stuff that is good for when you get home from the club/rave. Although there isn't anything too ground breakingly different in this track. They guy has got a great voice for this type of music.

Adele - Hometown Glory (High Contrast Remix)
 
6/10 It lost points for being DnB/Jungle and the actual song behind the remix didn't really impress me. The beat rarely changed, leaving the song monotonous, although I liked the synth effects added to the voice and the piano at the break, overall I just wasn't as impressed as I could've been.

Lost Witness - 7 Colours ...Really profound lyrics if you think about the meanings behind a rainbow ;)

Phrasing in this track is completely bananas. the first drop where the beat really comes in sounds totally wonky. also, if you absolutely MUST include a vocal in your trance, please don't make it about rainbows or butterflies. it comes out sounding like a cross between tiesto and venga boys. in fact, don't make it about anything. just some ladi dadi singing can sometime slip under my radar if the chick is (or at least sounds) hot enough, which this chick def isn't (/doesn't). The melody does nothing that any other cookie cutter trance arpeggiator can't do. I was tempted to give some points for a moderately cool video idea, but this isn't a video review thread.


DJ BadboE - Walk Out Laughing (Break the Box rmx)
 
8/10

goooooood remix. I'm generally not a fan of dnb, and I haven't been really into trance for a while, but this was extremely well executed. brought back memories of a classic tune while being fresh enough to sound original. played for the right crowd, this track could be a serious party tune.

Someone Else - Picture Perfect (Adam Beyer rmx)
Don't listen to this on your computer speakers kids!
