Not going for a overwhelming feel. Just a little glitchy, midrange, dark, uk style dubstep tracki made and enjoy. but am still striving to get better. Y'alll better let me know how ya feel.

[Crosano]

bump. maybe ?

[fve004]

This was horrible. Sry, mate.

I don't care when people diss on my music. In fact comments like this just make me feel like I'm talking to an asshole. Even if you do not like my music, which is understandable as I am a complete beginner, I would just appreciate it if people would leave some CONSTRUCTIVE feedback with their insults. I understand that it may be "horrible" but there is only one way for me to get better.

You need cymbals and percussion. otherwise it's going to sound really empty.

I mean if you are gonna say something is "horrible" at least give a reason to as why you think so.....Otherwise it comes off as very rude.

Because it seems you just want to put them down instead of helping them to a better track.

Thissss!!!!

I've seen this quite a few times, a lot of energy is put into the midrange, kick and snare (as they're the most obvious things in a mix) and then other things get left out. In order of what you should add here we go:-

Hihats
Cymbals
White noise rises / falls
More incidentals (background beeps / fx etc)

good luck!

Thanks man. i really appreciate this type of feedback. Are these the only things wrong ? Just little tidbits i left out ?

[Willgood]

Drop the "im gunna kill you sample" It's too much but other than that good start its a little to slow though, I don't really think you could groove to it. But keep it up!

Also is this just for the drop? or throughout the entire track ? to me the only part that feels overly bare is the drop.. .but i am no expert ?

The first 3 deffo for the drop. Try it with the intro and see if it works.

Definitely the incidentals for the intro as well.

[Crosano]

Will def look into these ideas thanks for the help.

[Slothmoss]

Yeah i got to agree with these guys, some hi hats and some EQ'ing would do wonders for this track

[Monowan]

I'm no expert in this particular brand of dubstep but I feel like your wobble bass could be a little heavier, did you try adding tube or dimension expander ? I agree with the others about the hats, if you use them right (not too loud, not too quiet) your drums should flow more naturally. The Glados sample are a nice touch but I think you could blend them more into the mix, they kinda stick out as it is.

Ps : I empathize with your sig "Watch my progress. I'm gonna make it." That's what I tell myself all the time lol

[Crosano]

I did not. add those.... can you explain to me what tube/ dimension expanders do, what plugins do you use to get the effeect ?any links or information would be very nice
