EH...what do YOU think of it? Have you improved? Does the mix sound better?
if so, WHY? what did you do differently?

fuck youre frustrating. its like..do you LEARN?
I asked you what YOU thought of your music and you say "THATS IT? NO MORE REVIEWS"!!!!
bro...9 fucking minutes? GIVE ME A BREAK!!! how self indulgent is that!?!?!?!
look..unless youre REALLY changing it up...anything more than 6 and youre just pushing it. think about it
it sounds like..based on what K said before and now maarten..that you arent listening to what people say, which tells me that youre really only trying to get people to HEAR It, and couldnt care less about constructive criticism!!!!
Both kilo and a few others said your shit gets boring in the beginning a couple songs back, and yet..this brand new, new and improved one...NINE MINUTES and after THREE its still the same?
come on, kid. sorry to sound harsh but are you paying attention?

but no, doesnt need to be anywhere NEAR to mozart, but..
youre not listening. If someone says more than once "well..its seems a bit long...this one and this one and this one all sorta drag" then..if you were applying what you claim to consider "advice" then the next one that comes along would be a bit shorter, no?
cool thing is..its pretty easy to cut stuff out. 9 minutes is just too long. I know..a lot of trance tracks are really long, but those are the ones that usually have a lot of changes and variations...so keep that in mind.
as for getting something positive, thats simply not true. it just really does seem like youre not applying the things you claimed to learn
and also..its not impossible to be largely unbiased about your own music. ESPECIALLY when it comes to the production side (which is really what we all need to focus on. I cant ask you if you "like" my music and then try to change it more for you to like it, and you cant ask me if I like yours and if I say no then you go and try to do something different but what all of us CAN do is say "does this work? how can I get the bass fuller sounding," etc)
but the key is..YOU. do YOU think it sounds better than before? Have you done some research and then applied it? learning is nothing without application, no?
really not trying to be harsh but...you just come off in a funny way and it sometimes seems like youre not really interested in putting in the work it takes to refine ones sound...

Would you rather people lie to you and tell you how good you are? this wont help you improve, the exact opposite actually.
Third party critique is a great way to see problems (or possible improvements) that you always overlook. When someone points out something to me what they think is wrong with a track, i appreciate their honesty, cos its helping me to improve, or it helps me look at my music in a different way. Thats the beauty of places like DT! Appreciate it!
P.S. I cant stream your track from where i am right now, so i cant give contructive critisism.

k's giving tips from a dance perspective; i'm coming from more of a chill perspective i guess.. you're totally psychic t.v..
course.. i'm a guy who thought a 20 minute tape of one unchanging sr-16 drum pattern run through massive distortion was too short.

if you're cutting and pasting in a computer sequencer, it's easy to keep copying 16 measures and adding or subtracting one part, and end up with something way too long. you might be doing that. it happens to me all the time.
also, prolly most relevant to this sort of music, if you're listening to the same track for a long time as you make it, your ears become hyper sensetive, and what sounds like gorgeous subtle variation to your ears is imperceptible to others.
there, that's specific.

and the first half seems like an intro, you have a breakdown, then the second half seems like another intro. i was waiting for it to kick into something. what am i saying? i guess it didn't 'go' anywhere.
nice one for posting it here, keep them coming!

just try and make these ideas hit hard...by hitting hard it might take some shortening...which is ok
if you hit someone hard in a short period and give them a nice rush and procure it for a bit and then let off...they will want to play it again...
like start of the song with your synth, a build, the voices, then slam the shit, let off....new synths, then build again, new voices with old and slam everything again.....
wow...with that nice synth you got u can do some damage :-)
good luck

1. the drums stop
2. count 8 add a 64th crescendo snare roll rsing from almost silence....
then drop in the SAME riff with the main beat... that's what i hear and am expecting... but after an ambient buildinhg section you dont want to then drop down to even LESS sound & MORE ambience... at that point after nearly 2 minutes of intro I'm ready for the beat...
