FINISHED TRACKS FOR FEEDBACK-- JULY 2010

[Sharmaji]

Sadly we lost about a week's worth of posts, but well-done to everyone sharing. Now toss up some summer heat!

As always, please leave at least 3 instances of feedback--and continue to comment on peoples' work-- before you post a tune.

[Imperial]

big things are planned for this month!
big up all the supporters

Soundcloud

be sure to follow me for new mixes, drumstep tunes nd various shit along the way

[ilv1]

@Enza - The drum samples could have been better...
@Imperial - Sounds nice... But drums need more power!

This is my first drumstep track and my second ever track... Feedback is necessary!

Soundcloud

[reignstep]

Usual shit again, ppl not dropping any comments get all the comments, people doing some effort to feedback other tunes are getting ignored... sigh

@ilv1: not bad , abit loud and you got a catchy melody , but it lacks alot of subs.

@imperial: i didn't really like it, this shouldn't be in the finished tunes thread. Drums need way more power, you need a sub, a decent drop and you need less lame wobbles.

@ENZA: look at soundcloud

[ilv1]

@Reignz - I didn't really know what to say... The track is pretty good, i like the sounds but maybe the distortion is a bit too everywhere... The electric sound or whatever.... And gets a bit tiring... I like the "Now... Where were we?" Sample... it fits awesomely into the song...

[ENZA]

@ilv1 good ideas needa bring them hi hat levels up maybe some equing and needs a stronger bass if there is any? but see potential for the track good werk for bein ur second prod.

Me and Realise are working hard on an EP containing some tracks that blend elements of Grime, especially the deeper 'album' type stuff with organic instruments used, and Dubstep together. This is an introduction also of Realise himself, although me and him have been working together since the Land before Time, we've not had the chance to work on something official in a long while!

The EP is currently untitled but is already signed up to BDDM Recordings as catalogue BDDM002. If you want to keep updated on the progression and release of this EP please become a follower of my facebook page!

Not really sure what genre this would fall into...but thought I would put it up anyway. I'm still learning about production and would be very keen to have any feedback please.

MGS themed dubstep

@mrwoof
i like the groove of the tune. hats are a bit quiet, but it kinda gives it a minimalistic sound(not a bad thing). Good job on the buildups! Nice whomps too.

Was late gettin this one onto last thread, so, reposting it here.

Now toss up some summer heat!

wheres your summer tunes everybody????

new song in time for the summer from A-List & Impey titled 'feel so good'... we will more than likely be giving out 320's of this one. if anyones interested drop me a message (feedback for the rest underneath our track)

Soundcloud

@ reignz - intro is fucking epiccccc man! feeling some of the synth sounds youve used in the main part, not all them though, maybe abit too many in there for my liking,, but they all fit together well thats for sure! maybe the snare/clap could be abit harder hitting aswell, but again, thats just my personal preference.
other than that, i love it man, really good production skills!

@ ENZA - nice use of the vocal sample there man, fits really well. as for the song itself, all the sounds work really well with eachother... the only criticism i could find was the drop doesnt really do it for me, i mean i know its not a song thats like IN YOUR FACE if you get me, so it doesnt exactly need a banging drop, but thought it couldve done with maybe a little build up? im not sure haha.

@ Imperial - im really not sure about the lead sounds man, not really my cup of tea. but i can see other people liking it. i do however like the intro, and the breakdown. The drums could also use abit more VAVAVOOOOOM, or power in other words.

Wirez - MAN, i love it... you could easily cut it as a grime producer man. sick stuff... and as for Realise, hes decent, if hes just starting out (cant remember if you said that) then he has a big future in the grime industry... 1:50 (around that) onwards is SICK man.. good work.. i can pick no fault

[pain]

@ imperial: Digging the ethnic vibes in the beginning of the track. Like the nasty liquid bass too. .41-.54 is my favorite part with (don't know how to accurately describe it) the 4 bass notes being used almost has like a chorusy effect. Only thing I would say is the sample at the end is real low.

@ wirez: I'm pretty new to Grimestep but I'm feeling this track. Love the deep bass. Looking forward to checking out more from you. Good flow too on the rapper.

@ mrwoof: I think this is my fav track of these 3. Like S0VEREIGNTY said above awesome groove. It's almost like chill or laid back dub. I'm definitely bookmarking this one.

This track is my first dub type track ever, Would love some feedback so I can continue to improve my game.

@Pain... the tune represents some really well though ideas, and you seem to have your synth work coming along very well man... The rhythm has alot of groove too.. my biggest critiue is that mixdown though man! The tune is squashed under a compressor/limiter and it shows... take anything you ahve on the master off, turn all your faders down to 25% volume, and then adjust again, trust me, itll be a banger once you do.

Like I said, musically, its well though out, but you have to get that mixdown right or itll never show... trust me, reduce your levels and work as quietly as you can, turn your speakers up too make up for it. Then, after you mix everything down so its as CLEAR sounding when you turn your speakers up as a professional tune is when you lower its volume to match yours, then save your tune, and turn its gain up... everything will be a world cleaner sounding!

Either way, keep up the good work man, like I said, musically, its really solid, you gotta work on your engineering though!



Oh n @ whyrez feeling this new bit, me wants teh instrumental though haha.

[mrwoof]

@SOVEREIGNTY: nice theatrical intro, interesting pulse and snare rhythms, more of a fan post 1.03 but perhaps a bit too much of the same filtering in this section, ideally try and give it some variety

@pain: good intro but not sure on the snare sound, perhaps snare stick/rim just to give it more of that chilled dub feel? arps are good, but i think a bit too much of the same synth sound which isn't being counterbalanced up until 2.00...like the breakdown around the 3min mark.

hope that helps...and thanks for your feedback on my track guys...much appreciated

To be honest I think you ruined a potentially lovely sample with some crap noise sounds

You're a very naturally talented amateur in which case then, in my opinion! Big up mate
