1Overall Description
Solid and masterfully created trance done again by Mad Alien. Mad Alien shows us his good ear for the genre and his ability to create a powerful performance of rave sound. Though really no new ideas were brought with the piece, it still stands as a great example of work. The atmosphere created in this piece of music keeps a constant and driving pace through out and has the potential to turn any listener to a Space Racer.
 
2Creativity Description
This is a pretty standard trance track. No real new ideas, but nice use of effects and samples to give the constant sense of motion, even when there is no pulsating bass available. You do get the sense of racing through space at accelerating speeds. My suggestion to help Mad Alien build on his sound would be to try new ideas rather than relying on standards.
 
3Artistic License Description
As stated before this is a pretty standard track. Samples though work nicely together to create it's own spaced atmosphere. Mad Alien is an extreme expert at Trance and it shows.
 
4Arrangement Description
The transitions are extremely smooth, when the bass fades out it's hard to even realize it has as the piece keeps constant motion; a sign of a good rave track. Great use of panning with the short synths and in general. Whats there works well, but could of stood to be a bit longer as the idea behind the music was very strong and could of lasted more.
 
5Sound Quality Description
Some clicks can be heard in the lead, but other than that the sound is great and would move bodies at any rave regardless.
 
6Does it work as a piece of music Description
Another prime example of excellent trance made by Mad Alien. Blast this at a rave. I could also hear this as a lead in into another track.
