Those bells were lucky. @bitch2.0 did FM synthesis and hoped for the best, using Audacity to look at the waveform and do spectrum analysis to make sure that the bells weren't too bright, but they were still too bright.
The no listen challenge: create a track without ever listening to it prior to publishing.
I thought of a trance melody idea and wrote it down in E minor. Hopefully I stayed in key throughout and didn't miss any notes.

Some mixing and sound design methods used:
Mixed with visual mixer levels, hoping that my prior experience with bass and lead synth levels would pay off.
Used samples and synths that I knew the sounds to.
Because visual mixer levels are slow to release, I had to use some other visual method when timing was crucial. I used timeline bounce to preview the waveform of a section to make sure that there were gaps in the gated lead synth, to determine the end of the reverse cymbal, and to check the length of the 909 open hat.
To check that the filter cutoff frequency of Heisenberg/Pulverisateur was sufficiently low, I used a Slope bandpass filter, set to desired frequency and high resonance, and lowered synth filter until the level appeared to dip.

Let's see how this goes. Could be decent or could be a complete disaster.

Can't believe this is so good...

I'm just going to go slam my head against a wall a few times cause this isn't even remotely fair.
-
So you're telling me that you didn't listen to this? I can't do better when i listen ;.;
-
i was deaf until i finished. i did a lot of playing sounds in my head, though, to find a usable melody.
-
So your tellin me...
that you never listened to this?
-

still better than what i've made.
-
