cadra - very large array
[SC00100] old age - Jul 7, 2002
from the first second onwards, this track draws the attention with a nicely eq'd acid riff that sets the mood for the rest of the track. after that, the track evolves into a sophisticated acidish hardtrance experience, with goa-ish melodylines and vocal use on top of ravey main melodies. the track forms one solid chunk of dopey bouncy ruff-edged hardtrance. it makes us wonder what cadra is up to next! a worhy release #100!

actually, listening to this 8 years after having made it, and at least 4 since having last heard it, i'd say the opening sets the tone for banging acid techno, but the track soon devolves into cheese. i blame it on the bassline. ok, the bassline AND the cheesy lead hook.
i'm glad i got stuck on the acid and techno in the end. but then again, in the face of a track like this, anyone with 2 brain cells to rub together would say "why not just use that acid line to make the entire track and screw the cheese?" am i right or am i right?
also, i shall never forgive myself for using a sample straight out of pulp fiction. well, ok, i forgive myself. but still: damn.
