Re: reccomend some headphones for listening to dubstep?

Not sure if you can get these in the US but Stagg do some awesome headphones for the price imo.
All i have right now for production is my laptop, fl studio, a few vst's and my Stagg headphones. (until wages come through next week) ;)
They respond very well to bass, clean mids and a nice crisp high ...

My timeless classic would have to be this beauty.

Re: WIPs/unfinished tunes for feedback * no finished tunes *

@ e-mission - lovely sub melody, maybe switch things up a bit more in places as it seems repetitive at times (short attention span) :oops:
other than that, yeah, that is a nice bouncy summer track!

Grids are essentially a good part of the learning curve in music production, like stabilisers are to a bike.
