@Cloak and dagger
Soviette:love the bass in there,real groovy..I like it,but it just seems to miss a little something in the track,maybe some vocals
Users of Magic:I love it!!I've been listening to a lot of dnb and jungle lately,and that hits right in the spot!,Love the drum breaks and the vocal stabs,really tight production.
@DjRaynes
I like the intro,however it is a bit long,i would shorten it up a bit,especially the part before the drums kick in,Also I'm not sure I like the kick sound but that's only me :lol:
@Superginger
I love the piano in the intro,however the part from 0:37 to 0:51 i don't think really fits,and when it drops back and when the vocals kick at 1:09 you show put a huge deep sub and this could be a banger

Here's my track,it's and idea I got while in the train so I made it on nanostudio on my iphone and I wanted to put it in logic and finish after,but I accidentally deleted the files, so I only have the .Wav left..Don't mind the drum sounds,it's some cheap samples that came with nanostudio,I wanted to change them when I came back,but this won't be happening lol :x
Thanks for the feedback guys

I'm running out to a show really quick but I'll post a good chunk of feedback when i get back, for sure!

Bass Sedation wrote:I've been playing drums and studying music for the better part of ten years. I've been browsing the forums for a few months now and have decided to finally post some feedback. I'll post some of my own tracks eventually, but I'm enjoying listening for now. Everything I've heard so far is freakin phenomenal! You guys rock! What I've listened to so far, in no particular order:

@urbannerd62 - "Land on my property" I like the drop at 1:24, I think you could do a little more to emphasize the transition...make it hit harder, ya know? That synth is really cool!

@wirez - "Six in the mornin" Really cool rhythm change in the beginning.

@skaven - I like how you switch between the half time and the 4/4, it would be cool to hear that emphasized a little more

@swansong - "Sirens" Reminds me of something 13 and God might make. A live rap would fit well with this song.

@wilding - Nice drop at 2:43. Great first tune

@vdb productions - "Champion Song" Very cool. Not many suggestions...maybe duplicate the synth and take it up an octave, add some distortion? Filthy!

@streetxlite - "Throat Saw" Like that yoyoyoy...I wouldn't be opposed to some heavier sub bass

@Mixster23 "Ye ye yeah" I could see myself mashing to this at a club! Turn those hats down a lil, put a compressor on top to beef it up and this is a banger

@We Bang - Wow. Just...wow. This is why dubstep rocks...because regular fans can connect with cutting edge artists on an internet forum. awesome.

Overall, great stuff. Look forward to hearing more great beats from you guys
Thanks you for the post.

- Blazinaiden : it's nice, but it doesn't make me go 'wow' . there's still alot of work to the mixdown and i hear some distortion from time to time, maybe it's intended, but imo it doesn't really fit :) Drums were nice but don't stick out enough.

- NRHc : same as for blazinaiden, it's well produced but doesn't give me the 'wow' effect. mix is pretty okay but the sub is just a tad too loud. I'd also add some more atmosphreric elements every 4 or 8 counts. can be anything

- DJRaynes: bass is strong mate, very neat. Didn't quite like the melodies in your tune though, some notes sounded pretty odd to me. also imo there's some flow lacking , there's nothing really supporting your drums and bassline.

- Cloak and Dagger

* Garage tune: yess , that's huge mate. sounding good in the mix and has a nice flow to it. no critics
* Jungle tune : again , good job. the bass could've been just a tad thicker , but rather personal opinion

- Wirez : sounding good as usual mate, vocals are a real add to the background tune :) One thing , is maybe don't switch up the notes of your bass so much. Just let if flow

I finally came around finishing my remix, mixed it down and posting a clip on soundcloud:

Not really my kinda thing, but it sounds well done overall. The midrange sound is a little too harsh and digital-sounding for me...the highs are just a little too grating.

Other than that, I think the drums could be a little more interesting, but perhaps that's not what you were going for. Also, I haven't heard the original, so I don't know to what extent you were trying to keep it true to the source material.

@DJRaynes: feedback left on soundcloud

@ reignz:
Enjoyed the remix, really professional sounding. props to you. :)

@ blazinaidan:
I'm not normally a fan of this broad use of synthielines but I liked it in your tune.
Drums were a bit too weak for my taste though.
But nice track.

My track is still in my sig.
Feedback on soundcloud is very much appreciated. ;)

@reignz really liked the orignal and i think you've done this one justice, proper nice drop, i think there mite be too many breaks in it, but other than that, sick man well done

@DJRaynes nice track, kinda sounds like old skool hip hop/dubstep bare nice, and powerful bass :D

@Cloak and Dagger proper nice garage tune mate, bare ambient, sounds are nicee, sick man

@whyrez: Definitely will go down proper in the clubs. I'd spin it if I were djing. Vocals sound great. The synths aren't my fav, but the main percussion in the middle of track along with the deep bass keep it rolling along real well.

@Elliottm: heavy. Awesome sample choice with home alone. Brings back memories. Got to love the classic air horn sound too. Awesome track that I could imagine being dropped in the middle of a set. Simple but straight to the point.

@reignz: Loving the electric saw sounding bass. Interesting add of the amen loop at the end for a change of pace. Really has a chill/slow vibe to it for the most part even though the bass is so heavy. Good luck in the contest.

Here is my new track. It's a hiphop track I made for a friend with an obvious dub influence.

@ Cloak and Dagger - Gartage tune is nice, Good bassline, Drums could stand out a bit more

@Wirez - Really like this, sounds like something that would've been on an old hospital comp which is def a good thing! Progresses well. Not massively sure about the vocals at points.

@ Superginger - Well written tune.

@ Elliottm - Nice, nice, nice. Everythings in the right place. Drum are sweet spesh the rides. Build-ups all good and nice drop synths. Good mix.

Im not sure about this tune tbh but dont wanna ditch it... Any feedback would be sweet - im thinking i need to work on the hook more..

@pete mines: Production is sounding tight and tune is sounding phat, nuff sed. I was a big fan of your old tunes city view and i cant remember the name of the other one, but absolutely rinsed them. Prefered that style, but your production is always phat. Everything just works together brilliantly. Another piece of me is simple yet brilliant. Absolutely love the vocal, is that an original? And the tylaz fast or slow is pretty sick, Some of the noises are wicked, however the mix is sounding a bit muddy at times.

@ Whyrez - as everyon ehas agreed this is a wicked track. Loving the all the sounds. At 1.30 i feel the bass could have a bit more punch to it, and the vocal could blend a little better, but its a minor problem. Overall proper sick.

@ Superginger : Piano edits are cool. I think maybe you should have just timestretched teh samples before you started to make it 140 coz it feels like it drags a little. Love the bass when its in the background, bit harsh and detuned for me wen it jumps out in the midrange. Nice remix though overall.

@Johnny-zee: Like this, proper dubby feel. THe wobble could be variated in sound tone a bit more to make it more interesting. Drums sounding nice, everything sitting in a good place.

@Sun -ce: Memories - the intro is nice. When the wobble kicks in it lacks any punch though, needs something to give it a bit more impact. Could just be to do witth the drop though, as that needs some work to build up tension. Or it might just be that the track seems to lack dynamcis in general, perhaps overcompressed but im no expert.

@non-Xero: its a good tune, lioke the drum work although, it sounds like you timestretched the whole break to 140 befoer cutting it up and im not a big fan of the timestretch feel of the individual hits the whole way through, would eb good as an element to introduce every now and again. Pad sounds are beautiful. Bass is nice.

@tn-man: Love the ideas and feel to this one. The whole track throbs. It keeps me interested, and some of the edits are sick. Although some are maybe a little too bold, n im not suer if they work, but thats the style. Its a sick track oveall.

@cloakn dagger: jungle tunes bashy. Pad is classic, love stabs at the end, everything fits together nicely. I really have nothing bad to say about this track. However, the garage track is even better. The slidy bass noise is beauty. The atmosphere of the whole tune is great. Only crit i've got is it could have maybe one more interesting element just to drop in the background at some points to keep it souding varied. The mix is great though, sounding Tight.

@NRHc - halfbaked: Tunes got some wicked ideas, i like the pad sound and the toms work nicely. I actually dont mind the drum sounds! However the arrangement could be improved, and it does sound a bit muddy at times, which can work for a short period, but a track thats so chilled and spacy, needs more, well, space!

@reignz: Phat, chopped vocal in intro sounds good, amen drums are a nice touch, especially when used with a filter sweep. Baslines are massive, nothing bad to say, just not my cup of tea.

@ Street-creeps - Polytrix - The drums need to cut through the mix more, maybe make space for the kick and snare at least. At 0.48, your lead dominates too much. I love the bassline and in fact all the elements musically.

Here is mine, all feedback and criticisim muchly appreciated. Ta.

Also this one if you got another couple of minutes! thanks.

@ RUBICONGUAVA: Nice subtle touch on this one, plenty of room in the track, and the mix is tight. very well produced.. THANKS for sharing.

@ PETE MILES: The hi end on that snare pierces my ear drums man, got some really nice elements going on in this one. i like how you have put a bit of dnb in there! great work overall.. big ups

@ bRRRz: LOVING THE BONGOS (TRIBAL FEEL) Haha man made me grin with that baaa sample CRAZY. Nice work mate.

@ ELKAT: Great snare going off in the bottom track, some nice synth work too. nice mix overall mate keep it up.

My newest track up for download on soundcloud, its the top one in my signature.

@Juju Man- Really like the little panpipey thing, it really adds to the vibes and the bass is pretty sweet too- all in all pretty damn good

@leviticus- Thought the second one was great, the little jazzy fills and breaks made it

@rhek- Liking the hip-hop feel of the intro but i'm not so sure on the drop, it seems really jarring- i was looking for a more purple style progression, maybe make a new intro for it and a new track out of the current one?

this is me, complete ish

@Rubiconguava I am lovin the drums man. The hats you have programmed are top notch. overall this track is very very clean.
Production is very good. I'm not sure how i feel about the asian flute sample, but it seems to fit the track well. I'm also really diggin the bassline you pop in and out here and there. I would have liked to hear a little more bass. I really liked when u picked up and added double time snares but i wish you would have ran with that idea a little more.
Excellent track overall tho bro. No complaints.

@RubiconGuava Your second track the O No No, i am SOOOOO diggin the ambience and the pads. Sooooo clean. Again you excel in clean drums and exquisite High end synths. Syncopated drum patterns are on point. Reminiscent of garage music without all the harsh choppiness. Tho i like that aspect of garage as well. This track seems very dubbed out and almost hypnotic. Personally i like my shit a little more bassy and i have the notion that if this was to be played at a club in some type of DJ mix it would be either Danced to more slowly or used as a build up track to something heavier with more persuasion to move your feet. Definitely a pre drop track. CANNOT get over how clean your mix is tho man and your vocal effects are perfect. Transitions are seamless as well.

@Juju Man First off the pads and flutes you chose are very Reminiscent of 80s action and martial arts movies. thats not a bad thing if u grew up in the 80s and are in love with them like i am. Maybe kids these days wouldnt appreciate them as much as i do! The Kick drum is nice and heavy like i like them. Not a big fan of the guiro like thing just b4 the drop. But then you brought in that bassline and I was like YEEESSSSS... It made me instantly wonder why there are so many of us on here who are THIS talented and were all struggling to get signed. Your Choice of oscillators and The way you automated the Sync is superb. The needle drop you occasionally use is clean as fuck. Wheres the vocal samples? i kinda always thought that was key to dubstep. Very full pads tho. Type of shit that would make you cream ur pants if u were on X. Not like iknow anything about that im just sayin :lol: I cant find anything i woulda done different sept for maybe ur shakers are a little loud (on my system at least) and ill leave this one by saying the Bassline is fucking great.

@hutyluty The Intro is a bit shrill. It has a dark harmonic dissonance that I'm not sure if i entirely hate but theres most definitely something i don't like about it. I love ur choice of snare. kinda like a door slamming in an evil corridor somewhere in dreamland. Sounds like you smoked a Doob and went to town with the automation. Upon further listening i really enjoy some of that Beautiful harmonic resonance you have created after your pads play for a while and layer over themselves. Again on this track i find myself wondering where the actual dance-ability is. definitely on some chill and trip out type shit but nothing i would play in my car or move my ass to in the club. And the end is scary movie shit all the way. Fuck yes got me thinkin about Freddy Kruger. That was tight. More bass is my prescription but i dont think u could add it without cluttering up the mix.

@DJRaynes I am a Huge fan of this warm Organ-ish synth you layed down and the melody you provided goes well with it. Then you added another layer and i liked it more. Good job. The drums are pretty tight. The snares and the hats combined are doin their job. Woulda liked the kick a tad more bumpin but whatev, it is what it is. Perhaps the kick interfered with that heavy sustained bassline you threw in? Sounds like you applied a distortion effect to a few oscillators with a sine underneath. Did you seperate the sine into its own bus withOUT distortion? I can actually see ppl movin their feet to this one regardless of the slow vibe. I would have enjoyed a little more energy in this track. honestly it makes me feel like im still in a dream. I would play this one in my car tho for sure. specially if it had some good rhymes on top. Yea most definitely has potential to be a hit HipHop track with the right vocalist keepin things uptempo feel me? I know u were goin for Dubstep tho, and So i hate to say that about the rhyming if u werent really goin for Hiphop but...

Heres My latest creation Go easy on me fellas...
