Gate Seven

By jemmons on February 22, 2026 9:21 pm

After two months of non-stop travel for both good and ill, I finally got this weekend at home — and promptly got sick ;-)


That’s okay. Plenty of time to sit in bed with some tea and an MC-707! I had started rearranging my rack before I came down with whatever I’ve got, so it’s still all over the floor. And I’m really not in the mood to faff with outboard stuff anyway. So I thought I’d just record some stems and mix in Logic. But something’s weird with the 707 drivers in Sequoia… the timing of something is just a little off? But hey, that gives it groove.


Thanks for the well-wishes from last week. Even sick, it feels so good to be back home again. And no plans to leave again for months and months! Heaven.

There's no place like home!
Great bassline & nice trance gates! Had my foot tapping 🩵

And that piano makes it a bit special... Reminds me of some of the old Reactivate albums .. check out Reactivate 10

What a treasure trove! I’ve been relying mostly on the “Platipus Archive” releases to get my 90s trance fix. Feels so good to broaden my horizons. Thanks for the recommendation!

i don't know if it's the clock, but it definitely grooves hard. Agree with Bearcage about the bassline, and the off-beat sub hits give it an extra train propulsion. Love the fakeout riser around 2:40, and the full transition later ends up sounding so smooth because of it. Pretty, clean, and bouncing

That bassline is tight.

The 707 is such a cool box.

You get a really authentic vobe to your trance stuff.

Yup, very nice acid bassline. Love the gated pad and how it all blends in together.

I hear what you mean but it doesn’t bug! Sweet bassline.
