Ferry Corsten - Then and Now

What do you think of Ferry's newer style? Do you like it? Or do you think he should have stuck to melodic trance?

I have adapted to his newer style with the purchase of 'Right of Way' which I enjoy listening to, but if I'm honest I much prefer his uplifting trance sound. It's my chosen genre and it's what he does best without a shadow of a doubt. To his credit it's good that Ferry is branching out from what he knows, it shows that he is capable of producing more than one kind of music.

So to summarise: his new style takes a bit of getting used to but now I like it. He is still producing some good trance remixes and with talented artists like Airwave, Michael Woods and Above & Beyond churning them out I don't think there is any real need for him to go back to solely producing trance.

hehehe I was wondering how long it would be before this question popped up Sam! Laughing

I agree totally with Aquascape here on this! I think the world should never have to lose Ferry Corsten from the music industry, especially for me, System F!! That's his trance baby and I'm glad he's continuing to produce tunes for it.

Hey Aquascape matey, has anyone ever told you, you look like the Devil's ass bitch Saddam?? Wink

(It's uncanny! BTW I get told I look like a Southpark character everyday on the street!!! Twisted Evil

I think both his styles he once did and now mainly terms out are both very good. I have to say I do prefer his epeic uplifting trance style more than the electro funk style he now does.

Hopefully he has not forgot his uplifting style and will sometime return to produce in that style.

I prefer Ferry's old uplifting sound instead of his new electro sound, but I do think he will release some more uplifting inspired tracks/remixes this year; "Everything Goes" (mixture of both styles) and his remix of "Synaesthesia 2004" (guess this one will be quite melodic/uplifting) proves that! Exclamation

one thing i like bout Ferry is that he can expand his musical horizons

I was unaware, probably forgot that he is going to do a remix of Synaesthesia. One to look out for.

I not too keen on his electro sound but it's trying to get used to it but i do prefer his older uplifting style more.
