Disclaimer, I am friend with Gareth Emery, to an insane randomnes of life, but still. It has been released, pretty much on to a day, 10 years ago. I need to just give him props, to his mastercraft and also to the opportunities, which he brought me into my life, like his sister : D I meant Roxanne Emery, either know as by herself or by name of RØRY or HØly waters, in which their first song was based on my story.

Anyway, I am not going to post official videos, just some fan remakes:

Guitar


Piano

If you know my man Gus, he is part of label which EA decided to pledge to against bullying. Here with Ilan Standerwick:


Or to poke fun at the social media by this:


And make a music about that:


Alright so it does not matter, if your favorite melody was done by your pal or not, what is it?

Honorable mention: Van Hallen - Ain't talking 'bout love

I've never seen this before!

My friend loves Armin, I'll share this with him. Thanks for the share, my fellow trance aficionado ;)
I am fellow, feels aficionado which means the same thing, because these days hardly any music, actually is designed to make you feel anything.

I mean this?

It's old, it's Estonian, but hell that main lead melody is something else.

It took me around 90 hours to write melody for this and not the mention how many hours, where I get the singer for the singer, who I get in unfortunate time, before I joined NeoGaf, when we - had a pause - and for some reason I am glad and also not glad to never met that person....in person. She is in the clip.


Let's just say in 06.09.2020 is scheduled something which has even my name on it.

I love this Ben Gold song, I remember you showed it to me before on our PM convo.

Can't believe you spent so long on the melody! That's some real dedication to the craft :messenger_heart: Some of the best electronic producers spend around that kind of time (80-120 hours on a track) like BT.

My sister kind of fucked me up by telling me not to listen to music that makes me emotional. She doesn't realize how that fucked me up hard because music has always been an emotional experience for me.

I'm trying to get that shit out of my head and get back to that emotional connection to music again and Trance has been therapeutic for the most part.

I have the chance, I have to take it. No matter the cost. And yes I am fucking proud. It means a shitload to me, way more than I anticipated. It's not like the melody is hard, is nowhere near the level, what is in OP, but the point is, you begin in place, where you don't know, what you want....what you need, what kind of melody goes with the vocals. And yes I remember dacing her by the city lights and she is definitely my virtue my vice.

YO, THIS SHIT IS AMAZING! :O
I KNOW:

Fuck check this:


Slavs are some emotional fuckers : D

M1chl M1chl , tell me what you think of this Oldie but Goldie classic trance remix by MarLo :)

Well know stuff : )

She's gorgeous, dude :messenger_heart: Can't imagine what it was like working with her, her vocals are beautiful too.
Well I was not there, I just told her where to go, that one who signs? Bro, I was just waiting for that one and only, to get her head out of her ass, what did you expect? She saved my life... do you think I am playing some games. Despite all the religious scolars and stuff like that, I look death into the eyes. So yeah.

BUT YEAH, I WOULD. That's why I did not come.

Man, trance vocals are nothing to be compared by, they are on their own level :messenger_fire:
Exactly. Despite being euphoric as fuck, it's in minor scale. Coincidence, I think not.

Do you prefer trance with vocals or are you okay without vocals?

Because, this song may be the greatest male vocal track I've ever heard and the person singing is an American!

This may be the best live perfomance I've ever seen filmed and it's from that Elements of Life tour that you're taking about!

That was at the beginning of every Elements of Life tour event, so yeah even I saw it live.

But then again, Tiesto is Black Hole recording finding out superstar, he is not older than Ferry Corsten and that person simply said, fuck I want to make my music a yeah, I think that speak for itself:


Nothing from Tiesto simply tops that. They were from same city.
YO, THIS SHIT IS AMAZING! :O
Can I give this more props, because that track is indeed amazing and we and Cold from time to time play games, but he is nowadays filthy Switch owner, so like what the fuck DUDE, play some SERIOUS GAMES. Shit.

What an amazing opener to a Legendary tour for an album like Elements of Life :goog_love:

Ferry Corsten actually worked on the Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance soundtrack and with BT recently on a 2019 trance track called "1997":

Jooxed Jooxed won.
 
January 27, 2020, go on look at your PM and go look for the "Hot Wind Blowing". You did not respond to me, WHY, WHYYYY? : D
I have a really bad habit sometimes of not following up!

Ferry Corsten also had some amazing individuals tracks in the past like this one (Bingo Players made a fantastic remix to this track, check that one out!):

This thread needs more Mr. Coldharbor and his amazing tribute to Linking Park - In the End:
 
MiyazakiHatesKojima MiyazakiHatesKojima I want to just say thanks, since yesterday I felt like shit, because some disagreement in the household in post-covid times and it means a lot to be able to share music and have a conversation about it. Thank you man.
The pleasure is all mine and thank you for sharing those songs and insightful stories too!

It revitalized my love for the Trance Genre :messenger_heart: Hope things are better on your side now.
 
Ohh yeah, this is something which I know how it sounds inside my mind, in the same year this GOAT track was released:


I remeber, in 2009 in small club in Prague, I was at the party with Daniel Kandi playing. And both of these track were present.


I was actually just listening to it right now! Amazing tune.

Speaking of.... another GOAT track. They don't make 'em like this anymore, sadly.

I am liking more rework by Markus Schulz and after many years first good track from Johan Gielen (well it's his remix), but boy does it sounds good:


(I was there)

This is non-live version:

Agreed - Markus Schulz got a bit too much hate when he came out with his rework.

Johan's remix is very good, but a bit disappointed at the lack of energy post-drop (at least on the extended studio version). Still have a slight preference for the Super 8 & Tab Remix which came out 10 years ago now.



Another song with a catchy piano...
