1Overall Description
I really liked the whole 'feel' of this track, not by any means breaking new ground within the Trance-genre, but certainly more in the footsteps of futurepop-bands like Apoptygma Berzerk than conventional tracne. Sorry, trance. ;) I'm thinking it could need some vocals to spiffen it all up.
 
2Creativity Description
Gets a bit repetetive after a while, it sounds more like a backing track for (let me repeat myself) vocals. Props for some great drums throughout, exept for the rather dull straight 4/4 bd+hat-routine at 1:14. Fortunatly that doesn't last, and on to the cool cool lead melody. It's worthy of several replays, actually. Good job!
 
3Artistic License Description
Thinkin of how what's used here work together, very well done! There could be more punch in the production though, some mixing issues I won't go in detail with as I lack that punch in my beat oriented tracks as well. But judging from my experience, the whole 'sound' could be more tight.
 
4Arrangement Description
The arrangement is good enough, but I'm thinking it lacks some material to fully entertain throughout the 4:14 it lasts. Gets a slight repetetive, could use some more creative breakdowns (and the whole part from 1:14 to 1:29 is really out of place) pushing the moelodies in new directions.
 
5Sound Quality Description
Sounds good from where I'm sitting, listening on headphones and only wish for a bit better post production. Well tuned samples, good effects etc.
 
6Does it work as a piece of music Description
I have to say it has some unfinished quality, but it has great potential. Add some vocals, fix that little breakdown issue and have proper post-production added and you have a winner on the dancefloor on sweaty german dancefloors.
