Progressively learning how to trance with the help of few tutorials. Feedbacks are more than welcome :) I am not totally satisfied with many things in here... Among else, the lead synth ended up pissing me off, so I chained three TubeD and moderately pushed the drive and gain at 100%. See the daring and audacious political statement in the title as proof of my irritation lel c:

theme song for Pangaeapunk: 3077
we see ourselves again a dystopian future, as the whole world converges into one continent again, and a very big tech entity settles in the now very vast seas building massive, intimidating floating cities of advanced tech in an effort to diverge, remodel, and control the new modern society.
yes this is definitely the electric boogaloo in the canon lore of earth indeed
Beauti job
Like this!! it has a good and steady feel :~)
I like it- I was playing Donkey Kong Country 2 recently (yes I'm from the 90s) and I feel like this would fit the soundtrack x) I'm not a big trance person but I love, love, love Bjork's Violently Happy, because it's Bjork of course <3 I was listening to it at the gym earlier today so I had to bring it up d:
Hehe I know, I was friendly messing with you oops ;)) Ahah fantastic anecdote, I wouldn't dare testing you then
What no, both connections I made were complete compliments!! As I said in my profile, SNES is one of my inspirations, particularly DK I love the soundtrack. I am so lame if you sent me a song I will know exactly what level it's in xD
Does it mean that you find my track outdated? >:[ Lol srsly if it has a retro vibe, I take that as a compliment, thanks! Oh I didn't know that one, thx for the discovery - Icelandic people have so much talented artists. I share with you one of their jazz-rock bands, ADHD (yes, it is how they call themselves). Their guitarist plays an impressive solo from 6' to 8' minutes: (link is only visible to registered users)
Very cool, i agree with the pangaea 2 thing lmao. I see why the lead is pissing you off its not very crispy! if u throw a crusher on it before the tube and destroy the bit rate, it might cut through the mix better.
Nice Bro!!! Still wanted to hear that amazing guitar solo!!!! Would you please do it for me! :"(
formidable
nice :)
Cool stuff, love that cover btw.
I'd try to create more rhythm and bass variations, but this is my personal and totally subjective taste. ;)
I like the track and in any case the work is very good.
and your feedback is important too, don't hesitate :)
Ye, Generally, you always make a lot of progress when you leave the comfort zone, even if you are not satisfied with the result. I've never done a trance track (maybe someday I'll try ...) and, therefore, I'm not in the best position to give you more appropriate advice.
Anyway, I like the track man and I can see all the work you put into it :)
I totally agree with you, I only tried a 'shy' variation for the stab bass (alternate octaves 3/4/3 until 3:19 and octaves 4/4/3 after) but I guess it does not really stand out partly because I modulate to another key at 3:19 too. The positive side is that working on this draft pointed out my areas of progress. Modulations, transitions, variations, better lead melodies, and so on. I'll keep publishing even when I am not satisfied with the result, your feedback is always most welcome :)
Oh yeah! this is the kind of stuff I want to learn!!. can you direct me to some tutorials? which will probably be too advanced for me, but I can save them for easy access later? pretty please? I will be installing Protools for class and just got Andrew Hagerman's book <3
With pleasure, if you have any question I'm here :)
Added to my reading list! Thank you!!
Sure! Sofar, I used these ones:

The first one was pretty useful to understand the structure, which I approximately reproduced in another key, then modified it, added variations etc. I did not really stick to the tutorials in terms of sound design though. For now, I did not find anything interesting on YT
not bad, the mixing could use some work. Also it's really quiet for some reason lol.
