Song:	"Grid ]|[ (Trance Mix)"
Artist:	The Cynic Project (Alex Smith)
Genre:	Melodic Trance

Alex Smith started The Cynic Project in the 1990's after being influenced by modern trance greats such as Robert Miles. This song, Grid ]|[ started in the early days as a tune called Matrix on the classic MP3c website. After overly strict naming policies were implemented by the MP3c staff, Alex was forced to rename this song because of the popular movie by the same name, even though this song came out before the movie and had nothing to do with it. Since a matrix is also a grid Alex chose to call the song Grid ][, which became a very popular piece on MP3c before it was shut down.

Grid ]|[ is a wonderful remix of his original Grid ][ with fantastic samples creating a very refreshing melodic trance song which is very addictive to listen to. The wonderful bright bass, the upbeat perky percussion, and of course those wonderful sweet pads and synths make this one a necessary addition to any melodic trance lover's library. This is a real winner for parties, chilling out, going to sleep, or any other activity.

Alex has great production skill. As with all of his work, this song is produced and recorded without flaw. The sound is clean and sharp with absolutely no noise or distortion. There is no video with this song, just a unique still image.
