Track 7 from my collection of old goa trance tracks made in Impulse Tracker. This one was finished on November 16, 1998. I can't really pinpoint any specific influence for this track (edit: see the pinned comment for an update), so in that sense it sounds very much like myself. The track title translates to "snowfall", and you can thank 17 year old me for the "creative" use of intercaps here. I must have felt very clever when coming up with that title :D
Reminds me so much of subcouds!
Hmm, you might be onto something here. Now I remember I had the Destination Goa 4 compilation back then, it has "Subcouds - On Red" on it (and some other good tracks too). Those may have been at least partially the inspiration here :)
@@pauleye.official yes! on red, and that other one on phantasm 4 i think it was, space angel! also greenflow! DEFinitely some subcouds influence here. very very nice. i think you actually had a great shot on getting on phantasm at the time of 98. would love to hear your story on what happened, cause you got clear talent!
@@AboveEmAllProduction well, the very short story is that I hit a brickwall 25 years ago, and despite numerous tries, I've been unable to make (almost) any music of my own since then :/
@@pauleye.official amen to that. Exactly the same here. Felt like I just died and never could write a full song ever again. 😪
@@pauleye.official well that sucks. Maybe when we are 60 we can start to write music again. Never lose hope! You have excellent talent.
This feels like music for Deckers poring through the Matrix on a shadowrun.
Thanks for all your comments :D (I won't reply to all of them individually though)
Make goa trance awsome again in its harmonies and rhythm.
Thank you for sharing these, I enjoy each upload.
Thanks for listening :)
I love watching impulse tracker, 🎉
Shame to read above that you had trouble making music after this. This showed total promise. Cool hearing Goa from a tracker!
Thanks, and unfortunately that's what happened. Oh well, at least I have this dozen of tracks to share :)
@@pauleye.official I will make sure to give them all a listen. Hopefully you can find a collaborator or something to bring out the creative juices in you, don't give up, man!
@@PsytranceGOUGAS a little bit of something collaborative is brewing, not goa trance in any case (I'll see if something can be done about that, some day). Thanks for listening :)
Unique and excellent. Could fit in background of combat in Deus Ex
You're not the first one to mention that my music reminds them of Deus Ex :)
I'm not sure how I ended up here. But, I'm loving it! Looking forward to the next upload.
Thanks :) I'll be doing uploads on saturdays. 5 tracks still coming up (for now).
The almighty algorithm summoned us.
This sounds amazing.
Thanks :)
невероятная работа
Thanks :)
Great track. Really hope you'll get your mojo back one day... Peace!
Thanks :) I hope to see my mojo return one day too, we'll see.
awesome work
Thanks :)
Interesting
Thanks :)
great beat
Thanks :)
Nice track!
Thanks :)
good work
Thanks :)
Reading the comments, you say you haven't composed music since 1998? Sounds unbelievable. What are you doing all these years, even having discovered such a talent? (I agree that composing doesn't pay even part-time, but it's such a shame)
Not asking in a "omg what r u doing wtf" but legit curious what path of life you chose to make that money?
I'm fairly sure that I didn't think of this as "discovering a talent". I was given a tool, and I was curious to see what I can do with it. I already had a musical background, so in that sense it didn't come right out of nowhere. As for the second question, I've been doing some occasional sound design since 2005, and DJing since 2010 (but I still see both as a hobby or labour of love, and neither pays my bills) and the rest of that answer concerns my private life which, to put it a bit bluntly, is none of anyone's business here :)
@@pauleye.official Thank you for the response. I also agree on the private life, privacy ftw
Anyway, thank you for sharing those 1998 songs :)
And 1999 too ;)
Hello, this track is awesome, listen, can you record a tutorial on how to make music?
Unfortunately no, there's no way I could do a tutorial, neither on tracker music, nor on music in general. As I've mentioned, I have made barely any music of my own in the past 25 years so I have nothing to show. Thanks for listening in any case :)
Thanks for sharing this, not the worst I listened to, however, I find the track a bland and uninspired, a catchy sample here and there ((like the "travelling without moving" from Dune)) or a tune (like in the "Teleport") only makes things better. I'm curious to hear your more recent goa trance tracks, however, your Bandcamp or UA-cam list none.
Thanks for listening, even if you didn't seem to like it that much. And the unfortunate thing is, I don't have any more recent goa trance to offer than this (or much anything else for that matter). Yes, you read that right, I've been unable to make almost any music of my own in the past 25 years and I have no idea why.
The man was 18 years old, and people create music until they are 30, then the brain no longer learns and spends its entire life consuming what it was taught.
@@pauleye.official I thought this was pretty good myself. They don't make goa like this anymore, sadly. Regarding the creative block, when I tried to go "professional", I tried to move away from trackers. It sucked, and my only saving grace was a MIDI tracker called ZTracker. Today, I still use ZTracker to sequence hardware, and I use Renoise to sequence audio samples. Have you thought about going back to trackers? Either use Impulse Tracker or something more modern like Renoise or Open MPT? It might get you back into recreational noise making!
I actually did mess around in Jeskola Buzz from late 1999 onwards, without ever really getting anywhere with it. I've been considering Renoise, or trying to do just something in Impulse Tracker or Schism Tracker for example, but getting into the mindset of "just sit down and try to do at least something, however terrible it might end up like" is easier said than done.
@@pauleye.official To be fair though, Buzz is a beast of an application. (I never could make heads or tails out of it, though I loved the compositions other people came up with for it.) Just grab the Renoise demo and go to town. I bet it'll be a lot less terrible than you think, especially with features like multiple filters per instrument and giant effect chains per polyphonic channel. Only thing that sucks is that the keyboard shortcuts aren't the same as what was in the classic trackers, and even modifying key bindings, you never quite get all the editing features of the old stuff. If that causes problems, definitely go with Open MPT as it's a lot closer to old-school trackers.
