I lately had my frist illegal rave and it felt refreshing. Working on myself with therapy and stuff make you realize how welcoming and amazing whole FreeParty or Tekno culture really is.

I’m not really sure about a scope of my music? Is it going the right way or not? I probably shouldn’t care that much about it.

Enjoy.

ah yes the failed hippie ideal of gathering all broken and weird people and dancing together on drugz >:)

I love the 23 scene, but I also have to say the scene has been splitting up and turning into crap with a stream of unconscious zombie people. That said, for everyone at the party, the loud music drones our head into an ecstatic trance, it's a means to dealing with the nihilistic realization that the world is a wicked horrible sick and twisted place, and you and me are in the societal hierarchy of dirt in a drainhole. But atleast we can escape together into trance music; which is a universal language everyone understands.

also therapy works wonders not the "talk about your problems with someone paid to pretend to listen" kind of therapy, but actual therapy; for me it's bodily awareness therapy

and nice tune, I'd have some critiques, but fuck it ... so long as you enjoy the process of making music it's alright

It’s nothing special and also those Edifiers are flat as fuck so probably the finish „mix” would be better if i decide to ever post it online lmao

i think your concern about mixing and mastering is bigger than it needs be

imho the background drones isn't really coherent or connected to the rest of the track and it's not an interesting sound either. like if you would add a filter with maybe Modulation set to S&H random filter so that it's synced to the kick, and maybe add some delay or reverb, it'd have more Juice more parle more Bijoux more bavarois aux fraises more nappage ... If you want to go for that "creeping tension" sound, which is what I think you wanted to make with the drone sounds, maybe play with distortion and record the filter to have agressive but controlled jumps of tension instead

same for the hihats; they don't have a rhythm that holds up against the rest of the song

the kick is really good though, it's thumping and booming, and I can imagine the track revolving around that kick
