Not as obviously random this year (although I do love the Liebekx remix at 140bpm!), the countdown set, nor is it particularly vocal (unless you count those number announcements) but as to whether this is indicative of my ongoing cynicism or some wider trend, I’m not sure. All I do know that was a fair bit of truly awful vocal trance in 2011, but I try not to think about that.
