I think my main issue now is actually working Reason and getting it to do what i would like it to do, as i am completely clueless as to what to use within the program to create the correct sounds for what i am looking to achieve. For example what would i use to develop a synth (that isnt a wobble) and match it up to a drum pattern.
I find videos helpful as they give me a rough idea as to what order i should go about things in, but there seems to be NO tutorials whatsoever that are aimed at people wanting to create 140 bpm music other than the 'dirty dubstep wobble' type.
I want to create deep and heavy sounds, with a heavy and dark sub and interesting synth. Where can i find any sort of tutorial on music production similar to this?
I know there are some amazing producers on this forum, if anyone could do any sort of tutorial i would be unbelievably greatful. It would help me no end and im sure there are many others who feel the same way,
Thanks so much for all the help so far everyone, Respect!
Learn about synthesis rather than how to make a certain sound.
Learn what each control/slider/button on the synth does so you can make any sound you want.

Like i said Sub baseline will go with any... drum beat you make.
Additionally, learn the basics of a synth in your case. Here:

For the synth's which sounds similar to Ruckspin, or just most of Ranking Recording crew, you would normally just start with a DnB reese, and change it around, add high pass's detune, maybe unison, to get rid of that dirty type sound, then finally reverb! Which normally is the key. Youtube "Reason 4 DnB Reese... lots of tut's
Big up, thanks for these. Just about the bass though, im confused as to how to add the sound to the sequencer in a way which lines it up with the beats. for example, sub to drop on the snare etc
Nice one on the synth info though, cheers
Go onto the sequencer, get the pencil tool, draw a 8 bar line with that tools on the bass channel.

if u mean that you want the sub bass to drop off everytime a snare hits or kick drums or what not you need to look into sidechaining and compression that boy in a band tutorial explains it i think theres also a guy you should search on youtube called Hydlide or something he knows his shit too lots of tutorials i think theres a 6 part intro to dubstep... colaborate his tutorials and the boy in the band ones and you should have something
