This the first time that I've found a good real clubtrack from TMA. Artist Lagacy has composed a really good track with a actual feeling and sound of a clubmusic. Pretty impressing. This song should propably considered as a full version although it is a remix.=) In the way that this song lasts for almost 10 minutes. Radio edit would be nice to hear since now this track repeats itself pretty much... Anyway... The song starts off with lovely synthchords, but this intro part continues for a minute with no variation. But then something happens - bassdrum appears and soon after that more percussions and bass come along. Bassline is simple,but nice. Somewhere around 2.30 the song sounds really good. It is mellow and groovy, yet it still repeats itself too much. Now we get to the chillpart. First we hear some strings and then some sort of nylon guitar comes along. It sounds refreshing , but again, it seems to take hours to hear something new. Same patterns are played with only some small piano adds . Slowly the chill is changing into groove again and after the vocals say "Let the bass kick" , there can be heard an excellent drumline. I love it. It just sounds so damn good.=)From this point till the end this song just keeps on playing with same action that it had in the beginning. Generally this song is really good. It gets a bit boring , but if this would be shorter, It would propably lose something too. Anyway, I feel like that if the track would be shorter, lets say 5 minutes and it would contain everything this song has, I would give a 9 or more. Lovely clubmix.=) Good work. Quite a simple song after all. Since there is no actual melody, this might sound a bit monotonic and dull. Effects were on places and samples were really good - both 8 and 16-bit quality. And I loved the percussions. This sounds pro enough for me that I could play this on radio. I mean I've heard much more worse songs coming out of from the radioprograms that play something like this. Worth listening...
