Progressive Trance Mix - June 2024

This track Solarstorm has been another of mine which has been about two years in the making, purely because when I started it I was still learning a great deal about music production. As time went by and my skills improved, both from a production standpoint and a mixing and mastering standpoint, I kept revisiting the track, implementing techniques and process which I had learned to improve upon what I had previously done.

Solarstorm is at the point now where I am happy with the result and feel ready to release it to the world. Like other tracks of mine it's a blend of tech and uplifting Trance elements and I've used a funky bassline pattern for both the intro and outro sections to give it a bit more flavour than just an off-beat or rolling pattern throughout. I actually think the funky bassline has a 'Smooth Criminal' feel to - just a lot faster.

So here you go, my new track 'Solarstorm'. I hope you like it.

Rodman - Solarstorm (Original Mix)

Sadly, I didn't win but we are permitted to upload our remixes to our platforms as a free giveaway. So please, help yourself, I hope you like it.

Remix Background

Some details about this remix you may be interested in. When I submitted my interest in this remix, I was given a pack of files containing the original track's MIDI (the musical notes for melodies) and a selection of audio samples used in the original which I could choose whether or not to include in my remix.

One of the audio samples in the pack was the female vocal sound which to me stood out as the key element to use in my remix; the sound which the whole track should revolve around. I think it's fabulously atmospheric and just sounds gorgeous. So, I really wanted to make a feature of this sample.

I wanted my remix to be drastically different to the original. With Metta & Glyde's original produced at 140bpm in a traditional "Uplifting Trance" format, I decided to slow my version down to 135bpm and present a more tribal, tech, progressive sound.

Within the MIDI pack I mentioned were the chord progressions for the atmospheric backing synths. The timing of these chord progressions was across eight bars - which I felt was too short to give prominence to the progression and development of the chords. So, I doubled their length across sixteen bars which really helped to highlight the beautiful changes in the chords. What this also did was have the effect of slowing the pace of the track. The original I feel sounds somewhat frenetic, this remix of mine just slows everything down and brings out fundamental elements of the track which I felt were perhaps not given the prominence they deserved in the original.

Lastly, the most notable difference between mine and the original is that I haven't included any of Metta & Glyde's main melody. As with the chord progressions, the main melody was across eight bars. Having doubled the length of the chord progressions the same needed to be done with the melody, which just didn't work, so I decided to leave it out altogether. However, in doubling the length of the chords and producing them with an ethereal string instrument I felt they sounded commanding and prominent, so decided to continue with them as the lead instrument and melody.

There you go, a few insights into my mindset and production techniques when creating this remix. I haven’t set out to offend anyone, music is subjective, we’re all entitled to our opinions.

The track was produced, mixed, and mastered by myself and I'm very proud of it. I hope you like it too.

Rodman x

Time Geometry & Alison Fritzke - Castles (Radio Edit)

It's been a little over 12 months since I recorded and released my first mix compilation Blinding Lights Volume 1, and I am thrilled to present to you the second compilation in the Blinding Lights mix series.

As with volume 1 there are 14 tracks, 11 of which are some of my favourite Trance records from over the last 12 months, along with three of my own productions in the mix as well.

Blinding Lights Volume 2 is a high-octane ride through Uplifting and Tech Trance styles, showcasing those records I feel have contributed significantly to the definition of Trance music over recent months. Turn on, tune in and lose yourself in this exploration of exhilarating Trance.
