Most chill-out music in this scene uses Boooring 4/4 time signature with Boooring hiphop beats. Simon is constantly using other time signatures and even morphing between them in one track. That gives some edge to his music that most don't have. Nobody have to like his music but when it comes to musicality/rhythms he definitely has something Unique going on there.
My favourite Sandman tracks are Highway 101, Starfinder and End of the World... they are on various compilations (TIP - 3D, TIP - Orange and Tantrance 6)..... so check those tracks if you haven't already.... maybe you like....
I think you need to take a brick from trance. Anything becomes boring if you listen to it a lot. Try to find some new music from other genres than trance.
Umm... no.
I would bet my right arm that Tortured Brain made that remix because he actually liked that song and not because "all corporate music bizz shite".
Hmm.. how it can be unknown track if the file is named Union Jack - Two Moons & (the whole track name is Two Full Moons And A Trout). I have that CD... the album name is There Will Be No Armageddon... and yes, it's on Platipus Records. Some tracks are quite cheesy imo.
Jaïa is really one of the best ones out there imo... just got his double CD about month ago and it was even better than I remembered.... you can get it at least from Saikosounds: target="new">http://www.saikosounds.com/english/display...ease.asp?id=924 ....but maybe you should first check some other shops more near to you..
