Management, Labels, and the Like...

After now producing every single day, anywhere from 3-7 hours for the last 2 years, I finally feel that the music I'm producing is reaching a level that could justify me actually trying to get it going somewhere. Obviously, like most everybody, I've tried emailing countless numbers of labels and blo...

Re: 1st official Dubstep show on US terrestrial/commercial r

Hell Yeah Neba! I listened to Wobble Wednesday every night I was home (in Marin) for the summer before coming back to LA for school this year. I'd be fuckin honored if I could get a mix on there with you guys, is there a specific email address that you suggest I send material to? Bigups from a fello...

Re: Best/Cheapest way to soundproof the tits out of a room?

You asked for cheapest, I gave you cheapest. No idea how much guitar centre would charge. I should have clarified... while being a broke ass college student does lean me towards a cheaper solution, producing is something that I really do take seriously and if I need to spend some money to be able t...

Mattresses against the windows & walls. hmm... i definitely have means to obtain free mattress, and I definitely wouldn't want to use them for sleeping if you know what I mean. haha thanks for the suggestion. What about egg cartons? or that shit you can buy at guitar center (or similar store)? ...

Savage - Swing (Kid Ranger Remix)

Hey everyone, It's been a long while since I've posted here. I've now been producing for about two years and just released my first remix under my new alias of "Kid Ranger". Take a listen, tell me what you think. If you like it, feel free to take a download. http://soundcloud.com/whoiskdrn...

Best/Cheapest way to soundproof the tits out of a room?

Hello all, I am very shortly moving into an apartment in LA when I go back for school. Luckily I have my own room, which will become much more of a studio than anything else. This being said, I've come to realize that maybe not all my neighbors will love me slapping dubstep as loud as I can at 3 in ...

Mastering?

Hey guys, I have a big favor to ask. I have a track that I really want to get mastered, as it is on hold to get a featured spot on a very popular dubstep blog along with an interview for their "up and coming producers" column. This could be a huge break for me and I don't want to master th...

Moombah-House track (EP Teaser Leak)

Hey guys, I haven't posted on the forum in a while, although I used to be quite a frequent member. I stopped producing for a while because I was focusing on DJ'ing gigs around my college town to make some extra money, but I'm back to producing, trying to finish up an EP in hopes that it seals the de...

Re: Colorful emotional brostep

Thoroughly impressed. The only thing I really have to say I would change about this song is some of the synths you used for the drop, which sound somewhat cliche/cheesy/overused. If you replaced those with more professional/original sounds I think this would be perfect. I really appreciate how you u...

Hmm... That's a lot to process. Looks like I have some work to do :D Also, what daw + vst's do you use? I started with Reason 5, and then switched over to Ableton Live Suite 8, with Komplete (which is Massive, FM8, Kontakt, etc etc all by Native Instruments) 7, Native Instruments Razor, and a coupl...

Thank you so much. Long, detailed feedback like that helps so, so much. Anyway, I checked out the track in your sig. Really good mix, I know almost nothing about mixing, so I'm pretty envious of the clean sound. What daw + vst's do you use? No problem man, thats what im here for. I actually just wr...

Re: Been gone a long time... [Free 320 and WIP]

It's not my style of dubstep, nor my kind of vocal, but it's pretty well produced. I can offer a couple of suggestions: Like one of the comments on soundcloud says, add a bit of modulation in the heavy bits. Those sustained notes aren't particularly interesting, especially in comparison the really ...

I haven't been on this forum for like 2 months, so when I saw this as one of the first posts up there I was super excited to check it out.

Hey Everyone, I don't know if any of you remember me, but I used to frequent this forum about 3 times a day for a couple months when I was starting to learn how to produce. The more I would post, the more I realized that absolutely no one would ever reply to my posts... I got sick of asking for help...

Re: Rexkt - Chronicle of Darkness [opinions] feedback return

Definitely like the feel of it man. Did you cut the intro short, or is that how you plan on it starting? If so, I would give it a bit longer of an intro, to me it feels a bit rushed. As far as the "drop"/main part of the track goes, I think it sounds fucking dirty, and with some touching u...
