This track has some really great samples and achieves exactley what the artist has set out to from, this shows from the smoothness of the layout of the whole composition. the effects are what i would call "smart" neat and it is a track for without the temo and effects changes would not be as good at all. i consider that there are 10 samples here. AND 8 tracks :) it sounds more like 25/30 are being used. he has manipulated samples in a way that causes it to sound like there are more samples used. no wasteing nore over use of any samples. default volume is set right as is the individual sample rates. the tune itself aint a very catchy tune though, and it sounds really old skool with a up to date edge to it, Nothing wrong with that though!, it has a classic ambiant trance feel to the flow and backgroung throughout. one flaw i would point out was the fact that it repeated the same patterns a little to much,but, it then suddenley fell into a new status and suddenly beguins to end. I used the abuve comments to make technical skills known on this track. the sound qualitys, samples qualitys individually and collectivly were second to non!. for an 8 track xm this can only be placed as a professionaly made track. the technical skills inspeird me to work with the track and remix it. and the samples will end up in my sound files for use in a project of my own. top quallity arrangment with no flaws to point out, but of course, it could allways be better ;-)
