recursion loop

Indeed, in English vibrato refers only to pitch modulation, I was confused by the Russian word which sounds the same but may mean both pitch modulation and amplitude modulation (tremolo).

It's a vibrato Or may be a trancegate, hard to tell what exactly was used because of the reverb tail. Vibrato is a very fast steady pattern where the sound doesn't dissapear completely but smoothly fades between the loud pieces, trancegate is more abrupt and may have more compelx pattern. A trance gate in purest form is here at 1:57 (sorry for extreme cheese) Oops, I guess I'll now have to explain what is reverb tail

Great sound-design, great production, but melodies are a bit weak. This guy seems to enjoy the production aspect of music the most (he has made the awesome series of tutorials as Soundmagus), but from my perspective his music would benefit from more interesting melodic developments. Of the whole album I liked the closing downtempo track the most.

Yep.

Kick is a bass drum, in most psy/goa tracks you hear it hitting constantly - it defines the beat. Percussion is (broadly) all drums which are not the kick, or sometimes it specifically refers to ethnic/tribal or noisy/metallic/industrial drums

145 bpm full-on with some "goaish" synth lines. Intro is a draft, I think I'll rework or ditch it. Maybe I posted this a bit too early (I thought it is awesome when I bounced the final mixdown, not sure about this today ). Still, if anyone wants to comment, would be great.

While my comment may sound derogatory, I didn't want to depreciate your music. You have top production skills (waay above my amateurish efforts) and good understanding of your genre, that's absolutely obvious. Thing is, that while lot's of people today are caring about the production and about being genre-specific, much less are trying to make their music recognizable. I'm not saying everybody should, music which carefully follows certain genre standards but is well produced and arranged also has it's own vaule, but still, maybe I'm a picky listener, but I probably won't choose this your album over other neogoa albums. That's more an advice (advices from random internet guys surely matter, do they? ) - having such a solid basis you may try to develop more recognizable style. Btw, did you use your Airas on this record? Some of the acid lines sound super tasty

For some reason I thought that Talpa's second album is called "When SOBERNESS becomes a game", and sometimes this scarily accurately describes what is happening here. But it is actually "soMberness", this is not that relevant.

Yeah, got you now Mitochondria would make more sence here, indeed, and they also could fit a proper goa cover http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/660/media/images/82528000/jpg/_82528200_mitoc0156765-mitochondrial_structure,_artwork-spl.jpg

No, mitochondria look different. This is clearly a chromosome, but they look like that only when a cell udnergoes division (mitosis) (I see how much sence this information makes in the thread ) Really nice cover btw. @ Kitrinos. Yeah, I agree that there is annoying overall sameness in lots of prog/full-on as well.

Maybe I should ask the stems from him to make a remix

Yeah, in fact some of his melodies are really not bad.

Just listened to the preview. Well, it is soudns energetic, well produced and mixed, lots of layers and all that. But the thing which has killed uplifting trance now happens to goa - it all sounds the fucking same!!! Yeah, looks like a chromosome during the mitotic metaphase.

Not impressed. I'm Cthulhu

You are really tough guys there in Serbia to drink this regularly. I remember one day in Crna Gora ... well, to be more precise, I don't remember this day at all Even our vodka is more ... dunno ... humane

Mystic Sound hits it big!

Thanks for the info! And also for all those years you've been providing us with good music for free

Btw. it was reposted at a Russian psytrance-related site (psy-music.ru) where people are literally raving about this release. Some of the comments (somehow loose translation as they are mostly written in very informal Russian, but you get the idea): "It is really rare to find such a music. Decent goa/suomi stuff is not released evary day. I especially liked Smoke&Mirror and Ignotrancer as the most goaish ones" (Nivinen Sky) "You can readilly tell that this guy knows his shit about proper music. It is literally the first time Suomisaundi really gives me a kick" (kalkidass) "It's a class of its own, properly mind-boggling" (Andrey) And 10 more comments, all very positive. http://psy-music.ru/news/sab_kuch_milegator_kauas_aikain_taa_2016/2016-05-28-12896-0-1

Great as usual. You have consistent style and very convincing production skills. Having thus said, I'm sure one day you'll make a track, which will be greater than your usual, if you understand what I mean I'm trying to say that I like your music but I have a feeling that you are not using your potential in full.

Thanks! indeed, it took me a while to get it sounding right (and an intermediate version occasionally got released, not sure what I was thinking ) That "goa" synth is Sylenth, iirc I started with some factory preset, adjusted the cutoff and reso so that they would respond to velocity in a certain manner and added glide for some kinda "liquid" feel.

Yeah, I love 00 Fleming, his latest album is pretty much amazing. I started to follow Joof Mantra, they consistenlty release trancey but not very cheesy stuff like that. I also have this Ra's album and like it, one of the rare goa albums which I can listen through in one go and it doesn't bore me. California Sunshine is nice but sounds pretty dated indeed.

I really love it. Stunning melodies and lots of great trippy sounds here and there, insanely beautiful and emotional work. Great, effing great! Mixing-wise maybe the bassline is a bit too prominent but it is hard to tell when the track is not mastered.
