Not sure where the dark inspiration came from, but this took me a little out of my comfort zone. Let me know what you think!

Thanks.

...just listen, maybe laugh...

bump!

IO, to be honest, I'm not sure. I'm bet theres a free dim expander VST somewhere out there? I decided to go back and revamp the entire tune after learning some more about mixing down. Got some cleaner sounds out of this one.... it's much, much different, and I like it. http://soundcloud.com/quarenta...

Hey thanks dude! I was considering upping the sidechain to the kick, but it started to change the feel of the tune.

Hey guys! This track has been sitting on the back burner for a little while. I'm pleased for the most part, but I'm still struggling with mastering. If any of you producer buffs would give this a listen and make any suggestions, that would be AWESOME! "Spectrum" http://soundcloud.com/quare...

Hey guys, just finished this remix. Thought I'd share it with you all first. I'd love some feedback! In the very least, just listen? And keep bumpin bumpin bumpin.

My first mix. Trying to start DJing shows here in Alabama... We sure could use the diversity. Too many country cover bands. :H: http://soundcloud.com/quarental/the-end-of-massive-quarental Track listing: 1. Flux Pavilion-Bass Cannon 2. Skrillex-Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites 3. Basshunter-Bass Head...

On THIRD thought, I decided it still wasn't finished. BUT here it is, in all its... glory? I hope you guys enjoy. It's in your face pretty much the entire time... I think this cup of coffee may be the culprit there. Anywho, take a listen! Thanks for all the advice! http://soundcloud.com/quarental/wh...

On second thought, disregard that second version. I like this much better.

Thanks for all the input.

I got the hats to cut. Haven't decided if I even want to hear more snare.. not sure there's room for it.

After a while of mixing, it's hard to hear if it even sounds better than before.

Hey guys, thanks for all the advice. Yeah, the waveform should have been a huge tipoff that the limiter was crushing the sounds. I'll take all your words and try to get a better mix later this afternoon! Very excited.

Thanks again,
Seth

Great foundation and structure! But it seems a little too "obvious", if that makes sense? How about modulating the bass a little more, and lessening the number of notes used... or maybe use some glide to transition between notes. It's a little square. Needs more funk! Great start, though. ...

I've been working on trying to get the drums to cut more to no avail. Any suggestions? I've tried panning the other instruments out to see if widening the sound spectrum would help, but no luck.

How do I get my drums to cut more?

Classical musician (tuba) with a degree in music education turned electronic artist... would be me in a nutshell. Just got stocked up with Live+Massive (plus Stutter Edit!) and haven't put it down. My main interest is dubstep, but my projects so far have been pretty varied. Maybe dubstep intrigues m...

Just trying to raise dubstep awareness in the South (US-Alabama) by producing some, mixing some, and just telling everyone I know to go google it. Anyway, here's a track I just finished (my first ((successful)) track). Any and all feedback is more than welcome and greatly appreciated. Using Live. &q...
