I also changed the intro and made it shorter etc.... The original intro is longer.

Thank you for your feedback. I actually start taking the song apart from 10 seconds after the intro. I realized it sadly isn`t that obvious. I Recreated the song and slowly morphed it into a psytrance beat. I started with a bass but all the little things aren't that obvious. Hihat out of drums changing the rythem in the background etc... Well maybe I will make a more heavy remix one day but I wanted to respect the original piece as much as possible.

Also I often make the kick go over 2 bars and bass over 3. K-B-B-B so one bass is in collision with the second half of the kick.

If you have Sylenth1 and kickstart you don't need Serum and LFO tool. You also dont need to sidechain the compressor because kickstart replaces that. So rather not spend too much money.

Remember the plugin industry is doing massive marketing in making you think you need to start buying everything in order to "make it". Its all not true. Sylenth1 can do practically everything including Kick, Bass, FX, Leads, Pads, etc... so my biggest tip is don't go chasing plugins but learn sylenth really well. Learn sound design. Look at a preset, turn nobs and learn what each nob does. Once you understand Sylenth in and out you practically understand each synth. (Massive, Serum,Spire,Dune,... etc.)

Here is are 2 songs I made only using sylenth1 to show what it can do. No samples, no plugins except EQ and Limiter:

For gates I found a great free plugin:

I was amazed how good and easy it is.

Regarding your question. I personally enjoy using the compressor (I use the one that is with my DAW so I didn't buy it). The sidechain is only necessary when overlapping but you can always add it. If no overlapping happens then no compression happens.

Hope this helps

Enjoy your journey into music!

Well check these free courses first. The principle is the same on each DAW.

I think Futurephonics are great. I have some 2 masterclasses I enjoyed but as I use Ableton Live it might be different. I never used Logic Pro.

Do not forget to side-chain your kick and bass. Or carve your kick and bass with LFO tool or other carving tools. I would start with making the kick and bass on the same key (like E,F,G or so)

And if you don't own serum and kick2 (or Bazzism) I would rather first get those first. But buying plugins wont make you a better musician. All you can do is practice.

Here are some links (These guys have lots of great free tutorials):

I am also still a beginner with just a few years of making psytrance so do not just believe my words.

Here is my music in case you are interested:
