Morgan Kell‘s Decibel Therapy Vol. 32 - Trance
27Is it Tech Trance, Progressive or just Trance? What do you think?
This mix was planned with a distinct focus on Tech Trance, but it wasn’t long before I realized that I went off-track. As a result, I decided to put the ‚Trance‘ label on it: playing it safe. ‚Officially‘ and according to government regulations, we do have 3 Tech, 3 Prog, 1 Hard Trance and 7 Trance tracks. I’m pretty sure that if you’re into tech or prog, your going to like this one anyway.
Behind the scenes: a few tracks do exhibit some weird mastering straight out of the box, causing the RMS to go up briefly but noticeably. I tried to keep it in check but then again, I value the original intention of the composer and my goal is to preserve it as best as possible. Some of the songs included already have quite a few years under their belt while mixing and mastering habits change over time. So, one has to make compromises here and there.
Last but not least:
All mixing done with just a tablet and a pair of headphones. My way to stay sane in the ongoing battle versus cancer and sleazy healthcare officials in Germany: decibel therapy - one transition at a time!
