I thought it'd be fun if we talked about a single producer every week. Just to show your ideas and likes/dislikes about this certain producer. interactivity!
Just some ideas..
overall style
energy
leads
melodies
basslines
originality
interesting/not
effect on trance community
overrated/underrated
the sets he/she plays
ok people, if you've never heard of armin van buuren and you listen to trance. you dont listen to trance  |

I don't like his music, it's unoriginal and money-orientated

His track 'burning with desire' (Thats'not the correct name, but I know its something like that) is really awesome. His song 'pertetuous dreamer - the sound of goodbye' is a true masterpiece.
His show (a state of trance, pretty famous I think) is lame. It used to be really good, but nowadays its like:
first week --> new track from NVO and PUSH
second week --> new remixes from the NVO and PUSH tracks from last week
third week --> new remixes BY NVO and PUSH
fourth week --> something interesting
and then it starts all over again. The show is really pissing me of, so I stopped listening. Too bad, it was incredible good when they started.
You' re always as good as your last song. |

Armin is one of the greatest producers/djs's around .... he has a perfect ear of what is hot and what is not when it comes to trance music .
I like his progressive side , lately his trance sets aren't very good , just playing what is hot ..... but his progressive sets are tha bomb for sure.
Anyway , he is so big that he is becoming a hype , but he is one of the few that stays normal ..... for example mr tiesto and ferry corsten are acting comercial and making some money (just look at that so called "theme" for tmf awards from ferry) ..... I like it that Armin stays normal ...... he also gives new talent a change by supporting them .
Yes Armin is a good producer and dj , but we did know that allready right ?
I still like to see a discussion about new and fresh dj's/producers in the future , it is a bit crappy to discuss about people we all already know about , it just gives a discussion like "I like him" and " I like him not" .

im saving envio for next week  but i agree with how u say he supports rising talents and has a good ear for whats hot/not, as well as how he doesn't go all out commercial like tiesto. |

he aint got that popish image as Tiësto (both play pretty good though)
I somehow feel that Armin is somewhat deeper in his sets...
But i'm not an expert on this issue
