   Hey all!
   
   This is a quick one to let you know we'll be releasing at least one 4-track 12" EP this year - First one due for release in May, second one will only be released if the first one is successfull.
   
   Anyways - We'd like to ask you all what song you feel MUST be on either one of those two 12" records. Not sure if all tracks are included in the poll - Add your option in your post if it's not there. Please also have in mind that the main category for 12" records are DJ's out there... Meaning that the EP won't be meant for home listening :)
   
   Fire away and make your vote count! :)
   
   Best,

   I'm surprised you forgot Liebe!! I would have voted for that [I think it's your best produced track so far].
   
   Anyway I voted for Touch the Lights. I figured Gothenburg Sound would definitly be on the vinyl, so why waste my vote on that?? :P
3. Alle15 Feb 2004, 05:55
   Liebe is actually not a trance[]control track - it's a BRATS UNiTED song :)
   
   There are no pre-decided songs so voting for Gothenburg Sound if that's what you'd want would be smart :)
   
   Best,

   I vote Unicorn R.I.P. I love that song! It's a nice and promissing song :D
5. djdarkshade15 Feb 2004, 06:37
   It's so hard to pick just 1. I chose Imported Nightmare, just because I think it's a real big crowd raiser. Same with Epicenter...... and... wow.... I guess every one of yours is a big crowd raiser, sence I havn't gotten anything but good results when I spin it.... Mahn... You guys rawk.
   
   Speaking of Epicenter. I want to hear it right now. *Plays Epicenter*
   Such an awesome track.

   Lobotomized! :music: need i say more?
8. AlexW15 Feb 2004, 10:37
   Gothenburg Sound if you want to sell records...
   LOBOTOMIZED UNICORN with several Unicorn remixers if you wanna do something original :)

   The sign of life. it is commercial, fast and fun.. its the only t[]c track that people seem to really love when i play it in one of my sets. if this was not on the ep, it would be a huge disapointment... if it was on, i'd buy it immediately.
10. Alle15 Feb 2004, 13:08
    AlexW: It's an EP, not a regular 12" :)
    
    aqvayak: Where and what sort of places do you spin?
11. munik15 Feb 2004, 19:27
    Dream of Trance is the best track you guys have...of course, in my own opinion, as it hasn't had any other votes yet :-(
    
    My favorite is the beginning (but the whole song is good)...*listening to it right now*
12. DjDaed15 Feb 2004, 23:12
    I am a high energy Dj, and the crowd expects hard tracks to be spun. I would have to go with Unicorn [Extended Mix]. However, I also recomend Distorted Minds, Small Drops of Acid and Sunrise. All of these get great responses when I spin them. Oh, another would be Haunted Souls. That one needs to be on the 12".

    What's the difference between 12" and EP?! :blush: :wassat: :unsure:

14. nitro2k0116 Feb 2004, 11:51
    Oki, here we go:
    
    Unicorn RIP extended
    A great track track. The first time I heard it on REAL speakers I almost started crying cause it was so good. B) I like RIP better than lobotomized, and I'd go for the extended if I were you (But it might be too cruel for some people... :devil: )
    
    Progression
    A summary of what trance music is about. Made me happy.
    
    Hyperdrive
    Donc, donc, donc, donc....
    
    Dream of trance
    Sounds as if somebody actually dreamed it...
    
    Surprise track
    Really silly track, not very dance-ative. But you might include it anyway. (Or dont :wacko: )
    
    That's my opinion. Btw I voted for Unicorn extended in the vote.
15. Sonik16 Feb 2004, 13:45
    I've always had a thing for Emotions. I would definately recommend putting that on an EP. Another good 3 would be:
    
    GOTHENBURG SOUND
    OUT THERE
    SCREAM
16. t[]c lover16 Feb 2004, 19:17
    since you cant do liebe i voted for we are no strangers
17. MrGoodbytes17 Feb 2004, 03:09
    It's really so hard to choose, but some of the tracks I especially like include:
    
    -On the Other Side
    -Unicorn R.I.P.
    -Touch the Lights
    -Crystal Dreams
    
    Nation 911, Unicorn R.I.P., or Small Drops of Acid would be good for a harder theme, whereas Touch the Lights, Progression, Mystique would make a more melodic theme. Ok that sounds obvious :P , but the four tracks at the top are what I would go for, personally.
    
    BTW, I voted for On The Other Side.

18. MrGoodbytes17 Feb 2004, 03:12
    Intelligent is another good one. LOL they're all good. Please don't make me choose. :wacko:
19. cyph3r17 Feb 2004, 08:59
    UNICORN R.I.P. (my personal favourite)
    Phazed Reality (the first t[]c track i've ever heard)
    Touch the Lights (beautiful)
    GOTHENBURG SOUND (beautiful indeed)
    
    by the way, where can i find LIEBE?? everyone's talking about it ...
    sorry, it may seem a dumb question, but i'm kinda new here !!
20. MrGoodbytes17 Feb 2004, 23:55
    One of us can send it to you. I can if you want; feel free to add me to your hotmail if you have it.
    It's really a BratsUnited track so it doesn't appear on the trance[]control page.

    What -- you can't put them all on there? :D
    
    Will there be a CD version or should we just burn our own?
22. llythiumn18 Feb 2004, 05:17
    Strange, I try to log on in the forums but it says there is no user called llythiumn, so I can't, but I did recieve the registration email and later emails from trance control at ▓ e-mail address hidden that sayed I was registered as llythiumn, ah, whatever.
    
    Anyway, I would say that any tracks that are not available for download would be the best ones to put on the records.

    Can I vote for the new Anticlimax track? ;)
25. Alle22 Feb 2004, 15:24
    Trancefuzion: Now you can :ph34r:
26. Guest28 Feb 2004, 04:04
    Gothenburg Sound is a really good track, but I vote for OUT THERE....I always picture myself dancing with a certain someone when I hear it.

    BTW, I am the guest that just posted.
28. Dj blue trance13 Mar 2004, 15:26
    [COLOR=blue][SIZE=1][FONT=Arial]I vote for "Hauted Souls" not knowing why I'm the only one :music:
29. TranceSynthVania13 Mar 2004, 15:33
    I think you should make like a 2004 remix/version of The Sign of Life (which would really kick ass btw) and include that...
30. DjDaed13 Mar 2004, 15:38

    I vote for "Hauted Souls" not knowing why I'm the only one

    
    
    I agree. I love that song.
31. ephex14 Mar 2004, 01:55
    You guys have a lot of older tracks that are really good. The thing is, once you see how good things can get [in other words, hear your newer productions :P] the old ones loose their shine...
    
    If you guys include any older songs on the 12", I would try to make sure you do a nice 'n proper 2004 remix of them, but still keep their original meaning behind the song. I know that this could be a bit of a problem because you lost your original project files in the burglary, but if you could pull it off I'm sure it would be worth the effort ;).
32. t[]c lover17 Mar 2004, 02:54
    if i could vote again I would choose restricted area
33. Guest20 Mar 2004, 21:05
    Does no one else find Surprise Track phat?
    Damn I love that tune.
34. t[]c lover30 Mar 2004, 01:41
    I would love to use it for hokme listening, since I was like 2 when we stopped using the record player.
35. ToS30 Mar 2004, 19:24
    Picking just one song for the 12" EP is extremely difficult. Over the years, you've released a plethora of tracks and I think it's only fair if I list the highlights of each t[]c era.
    
    Pre-Beyond 2001
    
    Deep Vibrations
    
    This song already has the 2nd most votes, but it's no surprise at all because it's simply amazing. +6 minutes of pure ecstasy. Perfect rave music.
    
    Come To Daddy
    
    This is unquestionably one of the most overlooked songs in your repertoire. There's just something in this track that's attractive and continues to lure the listener back after each listen. Whether it be the drooling baseline intro or the brooding dark theme, this is one sick song.
    
    The Way Home
    
    I've recommended a lot of your material to friends and this track easily gets the highest average rating. Intoxicating beats juxtaposed with blaring trumpets of sonic base will get any dancefloor moving. The conclusion is the epitome of raw dance power.
    
    Beyond 2001
    
    Love And Desire
    
    This track is filled with fire. It takes the audience through many stages of emotion and makes them feel the energy of the music. Fantastic.
    
    Psychotic Chaos
    
    This is the pinnacle of aggresion, an unrelenting barrage of sound. Unforgiving yet extremely appealing. This song single handedly opened the doors for fans into your music.
    
    Mission 2002
    
    Gothenburg Sound
    
    This is by far your most popular song. I don't think you should even hesitate to put this on the EP.
    
    Emotions
    
    It's incredibly hard to produce a dance track which is thought provoking. But emotions does just that. Amazing song.
    
    Haunted Souls
    
    Another underrated track by t[]c. This track has an unbelievably awesome baseline that builds into a thrilling climax.
    
    Mission 2003
    
    Progression
    
    This has easily become one of my favourite t[]c tracks just after a few listens. Progression is Emotions taken to the next level. Perfect build up, rhythm and transition. A must for the EP.
    
    Unicorn RIP [Extended]
    
    Probably your longest track but it has everything. A lot of people will agree with me saying that this is t[]c at its absolute prime. This is also a necessity.
    
    Like I said, it was extremely painful to narrow down your song list. The ones I listed are trully your best tracks so please take them into consideration. To be honest, I picked out the ones I think will bring you the most success, not my personal favourites. I hope my post was helpful.
    
    Good luck.

    I've always had a thing for Mystique ... I like the little blippy synth a looooot ...
