Description:
Escape the System. With time on my hands and lots of music hardware lying around, I made this one in computer class. The pulsing texture kind of makes me think of running, so I thought of escape. It's kind of a work in progress. I need to install Nexus onto a school computer to get a better synth engine for the main riffs in the song. There you go. Escape the System.

Enjoy!


Hardware:

Pulsing it is!!!
This would for sure get people on the dancefloor. I somehow imagine a violin in it somewhere..but that is my ear...


I like the keyword POUNDING.

Great...
I love the drive behind this, synths are excellent as are. It could use another instrument/noise in there but that is just me. Wonderful work.

you've got my attention!
Pretty strait forward trance, but it's got a nice build up. I recognize those garageband instruments. I'm happy that you didn't use loops though!

Keep rocking it,
Joel

Thanks!
Glad you like it! and thank you for commenting. Yes, for this song I did use a lot of stock instruments. I've found that the bass drum in the techno kit sounds heaps better than the one in the dance kit.

Good drive!
Fortunately for the trance genre (since I as a Dutchman got shot to death by Tiesto) you are here to innovate. Good tune brother. Only small point of criticism is that some sounds are unintentionally distorted?! That must be a matter of post-production or my speakers. Good job MKVX, it has a nice positive vibe.

Thanks!
Yea. The distortion thing was a bit of a careless mistake. I had the main mix in Garageband up a little too high, which gave it a bit of distortion here and there. I exported it and sent it home (it was made at school) only to realize that it had the overdriven distortion. But since I've stopped downloads of all my songs, I thought it sounded good for posting. Oh yea, I can't stand DJ Tiesto either. I think he's all show and no go. Adiago for Strings is the only thing I can bear.

Great clubbin' track
I love the moving bassline, that really makes you wanna dance. Good synths (as usual), however I agree with JB that the melody does clip and distort. Apart from that (which is tiny) the track is a cracker. A great dancefloor club track. Nice one
