I'd be interested to know some production details about the creation of those tracks.

Are the tracks completely original? Remixes?

Are the sounds loops? Virtual instruments?

Nice job zealot. It reminds me a little bit like star guitar, which is one of my favorite songs.

Have you been playing anywhere in BR?

first link didn't work

please don't call it EDM

2nd track has kind of a W&W big room feel to it but without hard bass

I couldn't open the first link on my phone but was able to find it by going to his soundcloud page.

Slight hijack, you going to tomorrowland again this year? Saw the lineup was just released.

I wish I could make a hard bass…mixing down a track like the famous producers do it is extremely difficult…that's by far the hardest part of writing a track is making it sound LOUD and using all your available frequencies most efficiently

I fixed the original link

i start out tracks with a blank canvas and a keyboard…virtual instruments??? i would say 99.9% of all electronic music is virtual hence the word electronic…I use Sylenth and Massive predominately as my synths

my 2 "remixes" are really just original tracks then after I finished I threw the lyrics to the song on top of it

I mean... did you actually play the notes on a MIDI/computer keyboard or are the melodies from samples or loops?

actually played the notes…it's way harder to write a track using loops and samples because none are the same melody…if you know basic music theory or understand piano it's pretty easy to make a multi-layered track that sounds good together…whereas, if you throw 3 or 4 loops together it's pretty much guaranteed to sound like shite.

here's what one of the tracks looks like (the main melody)
