1Overall Description
For a FT2 track this is an interesting piece for sure. Not the best trance I've heard from FT2, but interesting. Few nice melodies, i.e. the piano there. I would have expected a continuous bassline here, but since there isn't any, the track sounds a bit empty. There are few elements that work out just fine for a trance track, but as it is, the song doesn't get me listening to it more than a few times.
 
2Creativity Description
As it has been a long time since I last listened any tracker songs, this feels quite original to me. There is enough transitions to make this piece interesting enough. Of course, since this is trance, there is supposed to be some elements that repeats over and over :)
 
3Artistic License Description
Does the artist push the limits of the piece? Well, not really. There are many elements you could have added into this. And there is 2 major things missing: bass and arp. Yes, there is bass, but it only plays a few times in a pattern, when it should be backing up the kick. Samples are quite good, considering the year this is produced, but of course they could be better :)
 
4Arrangement Description
You can hear there is this typical club music arrangement, which works out just fine. Somehow these transitions from a-part to b-parts etc don't sound too smooth to me. I mean, there is nothing wrong here, but they could be smoother. Maybe if there was some effect sound to back up the transitions.
 
5Sound Quality Description
For a FT2 track the sound quality relies on the samples used. Well, they are quite clear, but.. Something just doesn't sound right. The kick could be better first of all, and actually all the percussion and hihats. That sinewave is good, nothing to complain about that.
 
6Does it work as a piece of music Description
Of course, I reckon this is a FT2 track, but still I think you could have done better here. And even just with minor changes and additions. Of course, this track you can listen through a few times, but that's it. There are no catchy melodies that would make you listen to this more than just those few times. Also the rhythms are quite basic.
