  • Please stop the vocal samples.

    To be fair, this is an issue that goes beyond this podcast, but most ‘vocal trance’ is horrible because it’s endless repetition of trite vocal clips that just isn’t interesting. I’m hearing more and more of it on this show, which was once a safe island in the land of EDM podcasts.

  • Great music, but ...

    …Solarstone talks too much and adds too much annoying, repetitive vocalization over the music he’s playing. He’s also too self-critical and spends way too much time commenting on his mixes and how good/bad they are, which is a great way to make either of them worse.

    So, why do I listen to it, still? Because it’s better music than almost any other trance / progressive / EDM podcast out there, except maybe Jaytech’s.

  • It is trance. Exactly what it claims to be. Good quality. It's very good for studying for me and very good for working out.
