Well fellow, judging from your comments on the music you've heard, you don't really like psytrance at all. You like some kind of progressive trance. Perhaps progressive psytrance or just "regular tranc" (wth is it called for rly?)
If you really think Texas Faggott would have sold more albums and become more popular if they had used a standard name like Cosmix or Android or Tranceport or Technox or Psychix or Sunrize or Tranc'n'Dance...
You are very stupid.
You've got a story about a little girl who has some great realisation on her 8th birthday and goes out on a quest or something, to meet weird monsters that don't really exist. To me, that seems essentially romantic (using the word's original meaning of course).
Well. Part of being a good producer is having style. That mastering on the Mindsphere album is not well done, nor stylish. It's just plain bad (bad as in: no one considered good would consider it good).
No. It's the mastering. Look at the waveform I posted above. Music doesn't look like that if you don't mess with the mixdown using compression with the intention of making it a brickwall.
Oh, was that Synogen.
I just want to say that the Mindsphere album was completely destroyed by the mastering.
To Synogen: Read more about dynamics and the loudness war. Your mastering of Mindsphere sounds like a mess. That 'standard' of having a flat, brickwalled soundwave is counterproductive to the enjoyment of music. And you haven't maximized it with style either. Maximization can't be done at mastering level if it's supposed to sound good. You have to mix according to that goal. But I don't recommend maximizing either way. It simply sounds like the music is screaming very loudly inside a little box.
