Hiya, we are two IRL friends. We've mostly made melodic trancers before on our own, but we have long wanted to do something together. We give you; Prio Alea.
This new project is aiming to make a new kind of trance for us personally. Our first effort 'If Looks Wouldn't Kill' has a fast driving percussion and a main hook that immediately stuck to our brains like a fly would on glued paper. It was more or less completed in 2 days, following a local rave party.
Lenght: 08:13 Quality: 192kbps Size: 11,2 Mb Genre: Psytrance(ish) with influences from progressive Full Download:HERE Short Clip:HERE
Written and produced by Cloudburst. Additional production and mastering by Seance.
So.. give it a listen. At least to the tiny clip (500kb) first if you're a bit skeptical with psytrance. Thank You!

Reviewed this on T.nu but again, love this track. Maybe some mastering issues to sort out, and the kick could be better, but other than that it's great.

Um.. about the kick, I think it will stay as it is.
And what excatly about the mastering do you think needs improvement? We know that the kick may need a little more bass and the volume on the hihats needs to be lowered.

The main problem as you said is the kick. I also think you should, also as you said, lower the volume of the hi hats and maybe eq the extreme highs out of them. Everything else is gravy.

OK, the intro is well scary (which I like)
That kick does sound a little flat and old to me... Love the bassline and that eastern-sounding synth! Great use of effects, really works.
That vocal is well freaky, is it from a film?
The lead sounds really different to most things posted on here which is a real breath of fresh air...
Good track altogether, and it really is psy-trance(ish)

Great stuff, d00d... very very energetic and eerie.
...but you really should tweak those volume levels a bit.
