Same mass produced cr@p - get back to your hoovers guys.

Sorry to offend people who like this stuff but it gives a bad name to the decent hard trance producers out there who actually understand hardtrance.

Yeah Matt, i defintley agree with you on this one!!!! "Trapped" for example is defintley Hard NRG but with a Trancy Synth Lead. If you listen to this tune, you can defintley here the Hard House/Hard NRG Elements. The pace of the track tells you it's Hard NRG and not Hard Trance. I also think the synth used is quite commercial aswell.

Matt, that was a good point about Hard House producers trying to bring out a new sound! Because the typical cheesey, bouncy Basslines and commercial synths are dying out.
Theyarekeeping the overall same feel to tracks ( Fast Beats, Vocals, typical Hard House elements in the background - Horns, whooshes after 8 beats!!!!!! Also cheesey snares)
But trying to make it into 'Hard Trance' as they would say,by just using a trancy synth!
Nah, matt's spot on, artists/labels like this won't convince typical Hard Trance lovers that easily!!!
