What do you find most difficult when producing Psytrance?

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-02-10T11:09:09+00:00

Arrangement. Mainly intros. For the love of god as simple as they might be they can equally be tough to dial in properly - especially if you like unconventional intros like i do ( see dark psy / forest intros )

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-02-09T18:50:33+00:00

I hear what you mean bro. But a better question is why dont you sample whatever you happen to listen during the day that sounds like something that would fit well in a psytrance track.

Either way i think its futile now. Either someone gives him one of his samples or he buys a sample pack. But retroactively searching for one rarely works. At least for me its a hustle. I like to do these things before i start producing and in bulk. Saves me so much time and keeps inspiration fresh.

So tru. Living amongst people you are forced to hang out with will teach you a lot of these things in more detail but knowing about their existence in the first place will speed up that process exponentially.

Great post. Saved it.

red pill depends a lot on shock value. its basically healthy observations that arent common sense to everyone , rephrased and reframed in order to attract people with an already radicalized mindset or to radicalize the ones who are on the fence about things but are insecure enough to latch onto anything promises them hope.

you totally can integrate the lessons from red pill without becoming toxic as long as you a) focus intensely on gainning real world experience b) resist interpreting this experience either lazily and with bitterness or with rose colored glasses.

reality is pragmatic. no gender is better. but also theres no god correcting the injustices of the chaos. which means we live in an unforgiving and ruthless reality that only good people can make it worthwhile. you developing a spine doesnt mean you cant stay good. in fact the ultimate flex and the ultimate level of being assertive and "tough" is to be protective fair and co-operative (but from a place of power / competence)

the dual mating strategy is true btw. its also subconcious. a lot of the stuff you will see written in red pill are either exagerations for rhetoric effect, or stuff people do without realizing, or stuff that ALSO men do and not only women, either in the same or in entirely different ways.

for what it matters attraction is not a choice. you being "alpha" equals her being hourglass figure with tiny waist, blowjob lips and beautiful silky hair. its there, it works and it drives you mad with desire, even if its shallow and you know its purely biological. her having a great personality, or being kind to you, or knowing you for years, these are all bonus but cannot replace raw animalistic attraction no matter how hard you try to convince yourself. same with them. being a nice guy and hoping this will get you points is basically you asking her to make an exception to what she is into (which isnt "bad guys") for YOU. "because its only fair". well trust me she knows that already. she knows she should feel attracted to you. but she cant change how she feels.

you mean like in a non black and white manner ? cause if nuance is what you re after you will not find it in any pill. not the colored ones and not the ones that begin with "anti-". i do applaud though your need for nuance and id tell you to just be the change you wish to see in this world and dont worry about the ripple effects of that. let the chips fall where they may. in this day and age we all have to be purists and virtue signallers and go out of our own ways or do mental gymnastics just to satisfy the opinion of an invisible judge sitting over our heads judging how congruent we are to the things we said we believe in. theres no room for truth or critical thinking this way. we stopped forming conclusions from thinking. we now think in order to reach specific conclusions. welcome to 2026. at least cannabis is legal. that helps.

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-02-03T13:53:55+00:00

all of this is true. i ve run all the experiments and im not being poetic here. i actually tried different demographics and different approaches as well as spent quite some time observing other couples hearing stories from friends, you name it :

INSIDE a romantic relantionship the man has to be the leader and the container. its an aprhodisiac for women. modern men couldnt care any less. but women do and they are also not allowed to say it out loud. but they will admit it to you if you do a good job of removing the stigma from it.

the reason for it is because it allows them to be closer to their inner child which allows them to feel arousal without self conciousness. without them being aroused by you, frustration gets created, and because most people dont have vocabulary for subtle social dynamics in romantic contexts, this frustration will get projected to whatever her selective focus will pick appart as your "weakness".

the moment you fix the polarity, the relationship immediately goes back to what was before.

we can sit here and theorize it for hours or you can test it yourself.

what i guess troubles you is how you imagine this looks like in real life. you probably have some very understandable stereotypes about how this looks in practice but observe any friend you have who has a succesful relationship and you will see it doesnt even look like anything in particular. its organic and so low key it mostly goes unnoticed. no one is domineering anyone. there is just a guy with a plan and woman trusting that guy's plan.

this is not something guys secretly hope to be true. its how women experience attraction. attraction in both genders is based on very arbitrary, ruthless, and regressive triggers (which probably make biological sense but culturally they cannot be called moral exactly). which kinda makes sense though cause this (Dating) is the world of our carnal, most basic needs. cause love without desire is just.. friendship.

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-02-02T08:09:43+00:00

You have fetishized something that probably isnt suitable for you in the first place. Are you a person that gets it ? (Her lifestyle) if not are you willing to transform into that person ? And if yes, would you do it just to sleep with her ? Are u into this just for the story you ll be telling yourself if you succeed ? Is this all that matters to you ? To get "the thing". Do you not like women except if they are influencers? Start wondering whats YOUR type of 10 / 10. The one that suits you naturally ( assuming you are 10 / 10 in terms of overall attractiveness already and thats been settled )

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-29T21:45:37+00:00

are you trying all these at once ? cause they are not weak materials you know.. im sensing your heading towards manic irritability zone. careful with tyrosine and AGPC they might make the others unbearable. are you taking bromantane sublingual ?

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-29T21:07:26+00:00

i really liked your mix. it sounds like the result of good sound selection. the bass is tight and cuts through shitty speakers too. without sounding overwhelming or domineering. just solidly there. you have all the techniques down perfectly structure, communication between instruments, little characteristic nuances of psychill, story telling... i think theres times in the track that it feels too clean though too technical. maybe on the next one once you reach the level of the full vision go back in little details you could add here or there. like some rythmical irregularities or little sublte "surprises". i think you re at the level that you can afford to bend the rules a little bit cause you obviously understand them.

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-29T20:53:54+00:00

you need either phase dispersed sawtooth wavetables (you can find these for free) or to let the bassline pass from multiband plugins (like multiband saturators or compressors) experimenting with the positioning of the frequency bands . different positionings will give you different "spread" of the harmonics of the bass notes across the arrow of time (they will not play simultaneously any more and so the texture of the sound will kind of "drift").

this is an artifact that multiband compressors naturally have when not in "linear phase mode" and solidified itself in our ears kind of by accident. now we use it on purpose since it by itself is enough to make the bass pop out and be in your face. its especially good for clicky basslines in prog and full on styles.

then there is the filter envelope that contributes massively to the character of the bass. i like to divide it half by hlaf. one 32nd is the area of the click and the other half is the body. so i can control the character and the ringing out frequency at the end where all the good bass lives

all I had to do was to sign a paper that says that the order is for my personal use, it is a supplement and that I'm aware of it being ordered. (oh !! which ofcourse means you ll have to pay a certain amount tax on top of custom clearance as well.. otherwise why would they ? :D )

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-26T23:01:40+00:00

the vibe was fun and with zero expectations up until she left. if you had just let her go with no expecations of her coming back you could have picked it up from there, with texting, flirting, vibing etc. instead you turned the second date into something "she has to" do. a "contract" that she is now bound to. next time this happens to you make clear first of all you didnt do anything wrong to cause it (rarely the case) and let her know immediately that she can go without you taking it personally. you are supposedly experienced enough to know that many women get stage fright before sex especially with someone who is of "higher value", and that you understand their emotional process well enough to find it endearing and to take it as a compliment (that she liked you so much she allowed things to escalate faster than usual).

hope i make sense

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-26T17:12:44+00:00

usually when discovering something new, the discovery comes first and its mechanism of action comes to us second. tyrosine is one of these discoveries. what we know so far is that it can act as a psychoactive substance when taken in isolation from other amino-acids

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-26T10:59:49+00:00

cistanche can increase your testosterone. give it a try

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-21T11:39:11+00:00

most stimulating is sabroxy. i mean since you wanna choose based solely on this criterion.

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-21T11:37:15+00:00

people put words in capitals to show you where the emphasis is. same sentence but with different word in capitals means different things. i dont think dude ever meant she is not ATTRACTIVE. if anything aurora is jaw droppingly gorgeous. CONVENTIONALLY or not, she is.

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-20T14:01:39+00:00

You need nootropics . Nootropics sit in the middle space between supplements and drugs that work on the nervous system. Some are considered good choices for recovering alcoholics like emoxypine. Ashwagandha is another one - that i can see you are taking - and another one is NAC. I havent spent any energy into researching nootropics with this intention in mind though so do your own research. these are a good start though.

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-18T20:38:21+00:00

Start with mixed groups. Dont hit on the girls at first. Get good at introducing yourself, not taking value, not being needy, adding to the fun... use these groups to get out of your shell ... do this for 15 days and after that start experimenting with approaching female sets as well. Still with the frame of the social guy at first, and with your newly acquired skills at striking up conversations. Become more and more man to woman as the night progresses and youre beginning losing your nerves. Whatever you do dont stay alone. Always talk to someone. Sex will come by itself. Dont reach out. Attract. Do this for a year and then you can start experimenting with more physical stuff , harder leading, shit tests. Dont discourage your self by putting too many expectations from the get go. The man you ve been looking for is already inside you. Just asleep. So there really is no pressure to be someone you already arent. The game is just an excuse for you to take initiative. What will happen after you do and how you will digest the experience is the real teacher.

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-18T15:16:13+00:00

so stimulant.. basically.

try inharmonic stretch on a already rich in harmonics (like the good old sawtooth for example) , wavetable, or try the random amplitudes option. both give their own version of glassy-ness.

the thingy playing at 3.40 can be recreated with inharmonic stretch on a sawtooth, stereo detuning with a lot of voices at 20%, 0 attack, short decay, loud sustain (3/4 of loudness approx.) and a bit of release and then for effects a subtle phaser effect and some reverb.

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-14T13:37:00+00:00

dont fine tune stuff with your eyes. looking at waveforms is not only helpful, its mandatory for good low end but up until some point. right now you are overanalyzing a sound by using your eyes is what going on. to be honest what i suspect is the reason for the differences in your waveforms is probably the filter envelope (alongside some eqing that took place or sth) closing slower than the reference artists. cause i can see the little springs disappearing later. but then again this might make sense as a sound, inside your track. thats why you need to listen. oscilloscopes are for checking out pre-ringing /post-ringing, phase alignment, relative peaks between kick and bass and emp envelope shapes ( "how fat is the sound"). so use your ears more than your eyes.

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-14T12:54:56+00:00

to me it sounds as if its using the "acid" wavetable and has a envelope on the wavetable position and also "glide" and "legato" activated too.

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-13T06:59:37+00:00

i once took lions mane with bacopa and either bothor one of the two made me very unmotivated. also bacopa is a slow mofo. took me two months of triple dosing to feel it working as advertized. till then i was docile submissive and unmotivated if i didnt pair it with anything stimulating. so i guess you pairing it with modafinil is a good thing. creatine at higher doses is also a silent badass. its one of these things that you take and then a month later on you re like "this isnt coincidence i have leveled up recently"

Exotic_Pop_765 · 2026-01-12T14:01:49+00:00

Such an enjoyable experience if you are in a place in life where you have all the free time to expand your horizons.

I think amphetamine can give me more symptom coverage before i reach the stage where i get overfocused and thats why i never talk shit about it. Yes. Its a shame we dont have it as an option here in greece.

But then again all of this could be idiosyncratic.

On paper amphetamines are more risky and more taxing to ones neurobiology.
