first tune i've made in a while, take a listen and leave some feedback please. i'm particularly interested in the what the mixdown is like on your system. i mixed it on my alesis monitors using a pair of dt990s to reference and it sounds fine. but when i play it through my beats headphones, everythi...

i'm just gonna go through and leave feedback on every tune and hope people are kind enough to return the favour. i doubt it though and i don't really care

i like the vibe of this tune, lovely melodies accompanied by some dark aggressive synths. could give the snare some more punch though i feel. drums could do with a bit of variation also to keep things moving. i like the percussions at 1:50 and feel some should have been introduced a couple bars earl...

the hats are a bit too sharp and should either be turned down a bit or eq'ed to take some of the highs out. nice drop and i like the bits where you duck everything out leaving just the snare or a little fill. think the snares lack a bit of lower mid range punch

badlands - i like the groove in the intro. drop perfectly carries that on. good bass and i like the drums. think the snares could hit harder though. i'm not really a big fan of that synth sound that comes in around the 1:30 mark. vault - i thought i wasn't going to like it from listening to the intr...

intro reminds me of joker with those pads. nice powerful drums. i'm not a fan of these types of tracks so that's as much feedback as i can offer

you need to edit the link as it's incorrect.

the wubs don't sound completely in tune with the melodic bells. try maybe having more than one wobble and alternating them to keep things interesting, and also little variations in the drum beat

intro nice although that main synth sounds a tad too loud on my dt990s. would have liked a bit more of a switch up after the drop, maybe some extra layered synth sounds or some heavier drums. you need to work on your mixdown a little as the synth is overpowering everything in the mix

nice dub phizix style rumbling bass. vocal samples are nice. agree with the comments about the drums during the first part. i feel the drums could do with some variations or fills to spice things up a bit and some more percussive elements to fill up the highs wouldn't go amiss i think. i feel someti...

lovely intro mate, really like the pads and that vocal sample. drop was a bit unexpected but the glitchy vibe is growing on me. i like the switch ups at 1:10 but i feel that vocal sample comes a bit sudden and can't help but think the transition could be smoother if parts of the vocal were introduce...

not sure what outputs that numark has but look you'll need one with 2x 1/4 jack outputs for your monitors

here's a new one i've been working on.

let me know your thoughts on the track and also the mixdown

@mtl6 - can't help myself remix - intro is epic. loving that vocal sample. the bass after the drop sounds a bit out of tune. i think a lot of the elements in the drop, particularly the vocal samples are over-compressed and thus the emphasis of the drop is lost slightly. @spectrafunk - i would struct...

ohmicide is my normal go to distortion, but it takes quite a while for me to dial in the effect that i want.

i want a simpler distortion unit for those times when i don't need such a big amount of control over the sound. any suggestions?

bitcrush that bitch, add a bit of hp filtering and distort that bitch

book myself on a two week holiday to thailand, bang bare chicks and ho's, come back feeling better than ever. that's what i did anyway

edit: no ladyboy jokes please, you're not funny or originall, thanks

take a break from producing, do something else to get that inspiration and motivation back. making tunes shouldn't be something you force yourself to do, it should be something you enjoy. a lot of people who are starting out at production seem to think that just because so and so are making x amount...
