No, no good friend. Welcome to the isratranceland.

I've listened your sound man... is good but you have to do some stuff before thinking mastering will solve your problems.

- Learn EQ and mix better. Your percussion is too high in relation to the bass. FX are also too loud and not processed.

- Shorten your percussion envelopes so they sound tighter, cause tight now they sound all over the palace.

- Work on your synth riffs and melodies. Better more dancey patterns. Better and uplifting melodies.

- Work on structure, build ups, drive, etc... control intensity create tension then release.

So as you can see you have lots of work to do before thinking on mastering. Because you know mastering has to be done by mastering engineer on proper studio on an already perfectly well mixed track.

If what you want is loudness just slam a Waves L2 on your master chan...

Sounds like you have nice energy and attitude but you have barely started making beats... cook them more and better before taking them out on a gig.

just my 2cents
hope it helps

yeah mastering is no quick fix. garbage in, garbage out. not saying your stuff is bad, just that a great mix makes a great master.           http://hermetechmastering.com : http://www.discogs.com/artist/Gregg+Janman : http://soundcloud.com/babaluma

pretty much everything he says. mastering wont do wonders. the greatest sounding sounds come out from the source. how you perceive them is another area. a good idea is to import a commercial track, and take it down like 10-15db, so you can compare sonical identities, where your freqs are lacking and so on. dont bother with loudness. leave it to others.
