Trance ID
Sound and Recording, September 2007

The text promises me „the secret to my success“, listening to the samples I feel at least being a teenager again. 40 complex construction-kits with a lot of single lines and licks all around Trance, including Intros / Outros and single drum samples. Combined in the Elastik-Player everything is sounding very professional.
Although bent to the unflexible concept of a construction kit did some illustrious people come togehter and built some nice mini-arrangments. Punchy and groovy drumloops, the typical melodical hooklines and meandering basslines combine with some simple chord progressions.

Creative mindes will find a good inspiration in this library plus some very good drum samples for the fine tuning of tracks. Those who can‘t or who doesn‘t want to produce sounds like this on their own found their Mecca within this library. Nothing to argue about.

The package has a size of 3.2 GB separated into two files. The 40 kits include three sets each: intro/outro, main and variation (all in all 1000 loops.)
The intro consists of two loops, the main part has 17 and the variation round about 10. The loops are up to 16 bars long. That already can be used to create something.

Next to the Construction Kits there is also a folder called „Construction Singles“. This one includes single percussion sounds that can also be triggered by MIDI. (...)

The kits include a wide range of „Trance“. (...) All lines are perfectly produced. There were no crashes and each kit is a good entrance to the world of trance. Who always wanted to hear how a professional trance song is built up in detail should take a look at Trance ID. The quality is outstanding but doesn‘t leave much space for your own ideas. I was shocked as I saw how easy it is to produce a professional sounding trance song. And this can be done by everybody how owns Trance ID.

Produced by a team that's worked with such deverse acts as Christina Aguilera,
Eminem, Boy Georged and Alex M.O.R.P.H. to name but a few, Trance ID features
more than 1,000 loops and 260 related single sounds that draw stylistically from such
progressive trance gods as Paul Van Dyk, Tiesto and Armin Van Buuren. Highly
sophisticated and polished for commercial club and radio styles, the library features a
huge variety of complimentary synth seqences, lead phrases and effects that can be
cross-matched and mutated in exciting ways.
(...)
The beats are fierce and bass lines are tight, as are the main and alternative lead
phrases. The fresh and inspiring content stands out from other libraries I've
auditioned lately.
Some of the coolest stuff resides in the Intros/Outros folders, which are based on
layered builds and breakdowns of the visually inspired pads and cinematic-like effects
sounds contained in each kit. From euphoric and high energy to chilled and floaty,
Trance ID is exquisitely produced and a beautiful adventure through modern sound
design.
