Like the beginning, it promises a relaxing trip. I was a bit dissapointed at first when the bassdrum made it's appearance (this tune has the material for a great chillout track ;)). But it's still a very relaxing beat going on, so I quickly got over my dissapointment. The tune in general does have a relaxed atmosphere over it.
Sample selection was good for most parts. Not all are the best possible quality, but that's not audible in the tune itself, so no points taken on that. One very disturbing thing though, the scream at 1:55, what the hell was that all about? That icecold scream didn't fit the warm feeling of the rest of the tune at all. It's almost as if the author put in the scream just because someones said "you need to have a female screaming in a dance track". From that scream onward btw. the tune lost my interest pretty much. The same synth sound that's in every other mainstream trance/dance track out there is used once again. At about 3:20 the tune again goes back to that warm sounding guitar riff, but a couple of seconds later the tune is over... It's still a nice track though, but the originality dropped pretty heavily with the introduction of this "usual trance sample".
I'm wondering if the background noise in the beginning of the tune was supposed to be waves on an ocean, which would have suited the tune, or if it was supposed to be a crowd cheering (which it actually was I think, after checking the sample that caused the sound). In either case I think the sample selection could have been a bit better there. It should either clearly have been a crowd, or clearly an ocean. Or maybe it was supposed to be something completely different, I don't know...
In general I don't have much to say about the mixing. I think everything fits well. Panning has been used, the samples are mostly well selected to fullfill their purpose, and everything seems to have found it's place. The possibilities of Madtracker have been used with care, and, allthough I probably wouldn't buy this one should it turn up in a record shop, it's still a pretty catchy, well arranged tune, and it would probably fit in at most mainstream clubs and radiostations.

What a beautiful track.
This is a very radio friendly anthem dance song that is screaming for a lead vocalist and a proffesional mastering job.
Pablo really demonstrates his experience with tracking software in this piece. He set out to create a feel good dance-pop tune and that's exactly what he did. Everywhere from his technical skills to his ear for arrangement. Even the lead that comes in at 2:00 would have people thinking it was sequenced in a softsynth. The guitar lead is tracked flawlessly and gives a wonderful latin overtone to the overall theme.
This is by far one of the best dance tracks I have ever seen composed this well in a tracking program. I don't really have much more to say. If there is a fully mastered version floating around, I'd be interested in hearing it. Also start looking for a vocalist to compliment this track and you won't have a problem getting some airplay. Great job!

Funny tune, sound a bit like "I'm alive" (Celin DION), at the point that you can sing it on the main theme withour being false!
But there are more things to say : looks pro, sound good, with little downing inspiration in the middle of the tune.
I'll rate it good because of the happy mood it turns me on.
With a little more work this will be in time for a techno party in a desert area!
Oh! It's too short after all.

Ok. Impresses quality of a sound, samples quolity and FX.:)
The theme that pleases Is traced. As a whole very pleasant impression from a composition, but all not a masterpiece.
