Well doing it only on headphones since 2008... go listen and decide if it can sound professional or not. It's all up to you how hard you work
And try to rest ears every hour for 10-15 mins -

Are the samples sampled by yourself originally, or are they redistributed from elsewhere? If so, you should not rename them to yourself, and you should mention the source. That's just good practice. But a nice gesture anyway, appreciated!
Some of them were original Roland which are pitched, stretched, EQed, compressed... but most of them are by myself

So here is one video from my first album promotion tour in Brazil few weeks ago, more than 4000 people going crazy!
Sorry for bad sound. Trackname: Imba - Cosmos In Her Eyes -
Dear Goa-heads,I present you first sample pack made by me, all drums and percs already tested on various dancefloors around the world, some of them for almost a decade... and it's for FREE!Original samples from legendary Roland's machines such as: JD 800, JD 990, Juno 106 (Typhoon), JV 80, JV 1080, MC 09, MC 303, R-8, R-5, SC-88, SH-09, SH-101, System-100, TR-505, TR-606, TR-707, TR-808, TR-909... heavily processed. Some of them made with modern tools so they can fit to more modern styles of Psychedelic Trance genre.These drums are taken from all mine released and unreleased tracks. In pack you can find samples from mine lately released album 'Imba - First Encounter' at Suntrip Records.254 samples in total in 16 bit WAV:- 64 Kicks- 60 Open Hats- 58 Snares- 56 Closed Hats- 13 Claps- 1 Bongo, Clave & Ride Cymbal-

They already have 1 full lengh out but I REALLY want a new full length from Khetzal (it's been over 10 yrs already wtf!!) and Artifact303. Both have been doing comp appearances, and Artifact303 at least had several new songs in 2015, but I'd really love a new full length from each of them
Just played with Artifact303 last weekend in Brazil and good news album is half way to go!
I heard 5 new tracks and they are killer. Much deeper and newer sounds, great crossover from Goa and modern psytrance. Really looking forward to this one

wow. that video looks like the videos i'm only used to seeing from belgium (including the excitement of the people). i'm amazed that you can fill such a large venue with people in a city of 250000 people with goa trance. over here you need to book astrix to get an audience of that size (and then people won't be dancing like that
). respect to the serbian scene; i'm jealous It was totally unexpected to have so much crowd but story and project was amazing. Goasia live after 10 years + First Encounter promotion... we had people from France, Germany, Turkey and whole Balkan. A supergood party!

For production/listening at home i use Sennheiser HD 380 Pro but they are huge... Sennheiser HD 205 i use for gigs and listening music while travelling. HD 205 have 'extra bass' which is good when you are in loud places like trains, buses, streets...

What I often dislike about goa is that there are many screechy ear-piercing tones coming from high resonances, here it is carefully controlled.
Same here! That's why i spent 2-3 months of mixing per track, i wanted to get max from what i have at this moment. Future releases to be even more cleaner... EP is in progress
Thanks a lot, glad you enjoyed!

Happy to read 'negative' critics too and i exactly know what you think!
But i already stated that i was focused towards modern sound. I didn't want to recycle old sound so i choosed something 'new', something you don't have much in Goa these days - clean production. Just like Morphic Resonance leaves his signature trough darkish and crazy sounds, Crossing Mind trough melancholic melodies, mine signature is 'my production'. But when you compare bass or melodies to rest of Goa trance is not much different, it's just more EQed, compressed and sidechined - modern
As you noted i need music theory and yes i have 0, everything i make i make by ear and i was never attracted to study it while im 'addicted' to mixing. To be honest i had total freedom while making it and i am super happy because that. I expressed myself at present time and there is nothing better than that - full freedom and no rules or limitations for your creations. Every single little sound and noise was by my wish. And that's my vision of Goa trance these day.
These days i got so many msgs, hourly and most of them are about modern sound. People are happy that they have 'compromise' between old and new sound. And yes, dancefloor exploding non stop and i was shocked to see that, i didn't expected such thing.
I am trully happy because all of this but i am really sorry you are disapointed. As they say, you can't satisfy everyone
Hopefuly you will enjoy some future releases, there will be few more old sounding tracks. Thank you for feedback! -

MWNN was commercial back in 90s comparing to other Goa - his style was described as 'Clubby Goa Trance'... TV, radio shows, charts, lots of intention towards him but was he bad? I don't think so.
Astrix is modern example of todays commercial but superb music. I am not into progressive but his new album is masterpiece in many ways!

Wasn't it supposed to be released on 9th.?
It was but we had some troubles... factory didn't shipped in time so it's a bit delayed:
'The official release was set to December 9th, but we had some logistic issues, hence the release will be available on digital platforms next Monday and on the shelves from the middle of next week.' from Suntrip website
We promissed people release at 9th so we uploaded tracks, rest wasnt in our power :/

It's a 'Future Prog' as they call it... kick and bass mostly, Schmeisser-like sounds lol
They really follow trends and stick to them, gated vocals, shamans, oriental styles combined with kick bass is what people want so they deliver it. Why to make underground psytrance or goa and get couple hundreds euros per gig only, flight with Ryan Air when you can have 5k per gig and first class or charter flights? It's very simple actually. It's simply business. Good money and everything that comes with it.
Scene today is more like mafia or corporations or is it same? You have some huge known agenciens and some that stay in shadow with loads of money and investements. They made one 'good' track and became 'face of psytrance' over night just like that? Psytrance is business
This is the 'future' lol

Imba's Goa Trance Drums Kit - FREE DOWNLOAD!
in Music Making and Production/Industry
Posted
As i wrote some of them are original samples but I never use original, there is always heavy processing. Nothing is illegal here, I did not take a single cent.
It's meant to help young producers and producers with less experience to achive better sound. This is my contribution to scene and colleagues.
Not that i have to explain to you or anyone anything but I did just now. But before attacking someone next time get informed first.
I spent years to make them and weeks going trough 50+ projects and doing exports so i can put them in one nice package and you call this a lie? Thanks and bye!
