[item value="10"]Somna, Andy Moor & Brieanna Grace - I'm Alive [/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Somna and Andy Moor have once again crafted an exceptional progressive trance masterpiece with "I'm Alive," featuring the evocative vocals of Brieanna Grace. Operating at a crisp 128 BPM, this track embodies the quintessential elements of progressive trance while integrating sophisticated production techniques that elevate its sonic landscape. The foundation of "I'm Alive" is constructed on robust, pulsating basslines that create an energetic undercurrent. These basslines are meticulously layered using sidechain compression techniques, ensuring they breathe harmoniously with the electro-touched kick drums. The kicks themselves are crafted with precision, utilizing transient shaping and subtle saturation to enhance their punch and clarity, cutting through the mix without overpowering the other elements. The rhythmic structure is further enriched by groovy drum patterns, comprising crisp hi-hats and dynamic percussion elements that are programmed to provide both drive and fluidity. These drums are enhanced with parallel compression to maintain consistency and impact across various frequencies. Brieanna Grace’s vocals are a standout feature, treated with a blend of reverb and delay effects to create a spacious, ethereal quality. Vocal processing techniques such as EQ sculpting, de-essing, and slight pitch correction are employed to ensure clarity and emotional resonance, seamlessly blending with the instrumental backdrop. The main breakdown is where the track’s emotive core truly shines. It opens with serene piano chords, recorded with high-fidelity microphones and processed through ambient reverb to evoke a sense of intimacy. Complementing the piano are lush orchestral strings, likely synthesized with high-quality virtual instruments and layered for depth and warmth. Advanced automation techniques are used to modulate the dynamics and filter frequencies, gradually building tension. As the breakdown crescendos, a euphoric anthemic synth melody emerges, symbolizing the uplifting message of "I'm Alive." This melody is crafted with supersaw synth patches, processed with unison detuning to create a rich, expansive sound. Modulation effects such as phasing and flanging add movement and texture, while meticulous EQ and stereo imaging ensure each synth layer occupies its own space within the mix. The final drop merges all these elements, showcasing impeccable mixing and mastering techniques that balance the track’s powerful low-end with shimmering highs. "I'm Alive" is not just a track but an auditory journey, meticulously crafted with eternal qualities that resonate deeply with listeners, affirming its status as #PureGold. Love IT[/content]
