Marcel Woods - Cherry Blossom

by **Nino** » Thu Mar 16, 2006 3:02 am

Swift kickdrums, a nicely rolling & altering bassline and a clear use of percussion serve as the entrÃ©e, being accompanied soon by an eerie sounding vocal snippet and some mysterious backing strings. With the track constantly building towards different climaxes, a very techy synth enters which is playing an ongoing set of notes throughout the build. While some percussion is disappearing smoothly, a crafty string sound enters in, enabling the listener to enter the breakdown without any hassle. With just the strings remaining, the overall vibe here is still very mysterious: a high, almost emotional sounding synth sound plays this up and down going melody, just until it fades away completely and makes place for complete silence... And that's exactly where the fun starts. A truly amazing melody starts playing, which will undoubtly generate goosebumps all over the place! Another high and somewhat emotive sound has been used again, creating a super energetic experience. With the energy just bursting out of it, this builds and builds using loads of tight filter FX and other gimmicks, just until the immensely powerful climax commences. Everything blends together perfectly, inducing this to be the ultimate 'go nuts' moment. It's very cool to see that Marcel has tried to create a more trancy feel in this one, and I think he definitely succeeded. A peaktime floorkiller!
