not yet, jus deciding wt to do with it, got a sick remix of it from trolley snatcha too so will come out at some point

Howdy, I've literally just heard of your stuff today, loving it, there's some noice dirty stuff in there. Great to hear of another (presumably) low-budget, reason dubstep producer, I'm just getting into it and it can be tough.

It's true what you say that good workflow/inspiration can come from nowhere, setting aside time for a big sesh sometimes falls on it's arse.

I've got a couple questions, any answers much appreciated.

How much mastering do you do yourself to a finished track, I find it hard to get much punch from an rns export, all straight out of reason?

Do you have the mix in mind as you write a track? I've spent ages worrying that powerful sound / decent mix, trying not to crowd the bass and it getting in the way of creativity. (fucking nerdy question I know)

You said you get loads of demos/mixes in? What do you do as a young wannabe to get your stuff heard, just send it to any random emails of producers you can find?

AAAAAAAAAAHHH, just listening to Ghost Town this second. Thought I'd throw that in. Niiice

Do you produce any other music, still do dnb maybe? DnB is where I started with reason, but really love progressive stuff, is there a space for progressive dnb/dubstep and do you think it's all becoming a bit too formulaic? Or is that just the mainstream, and does it make a difference to how you write?

Apologies for the rambling, and triple 'spek for doing these Qs.

really feeling your stuff mate. Lovin' the really steppy drums and basslines...

when is 'careful how you use it' touching down? if ever?

i use logic studio to make beats, would u reccomend useing reason or any other production software?

only mastering i usually do is use the wave hammer in soundforge to get the levels all smooth, and sometimes put a mastering suite on the main output of the mixer to give some overall eq boost

i dont really have the overall mix in mind when i start a track, i usually go with what comes out and see what i think it needs to make it sound more "complete" but then again trying to over fill my tunes is sometimes my biggest downfall so i wouldnt listen to me on that one hahaha

to get ur stuff heard id jus say be on a level and be yourself, show that you are a person and not just a robot knocking out tunes, i know it sounds funny but i get a lot of messages from ppl just saying "listen to this, give feedback" and i dunno, it sort of takes the humanity out of it. have a joke!

and i used to have a love of dnb, but sorta grew dissillusioned with it when i realised that especially in the dancefloor/jump up side of things you have to stick to the formulas or no1 will play your stuff, dubstep jus opened the doors and let me be myself, do silly things and have a laugh cos at the end of the day thats what life is all about for me

depends, do you want to use reason or other production software? do u feel comfortable with logic? it comes down to not what tools you use but the end result, and also the enjoyment you have in the process. dont feel forced to do something in ways other than that which you feel at ease, as you wont feel satisfied in the process of production

Big up Stenchman!

Is that a weed grinder on your desk in your studio photo?

How did start making tunes with suspect?

Do you enjoy making tunes by yourself more or with suspect/other artists?

we been mates for years since before either of us started producing so we got into it together really, i probably prefer makin tunes with other ppl cos its good to bounce ideas off them, but i know that i am an absolute tnuc to work with so dont really like to inflict that on people and most of the time do stuff by myself

Stenchman wrote:i am an absolute tnuc to work with

I don't agree! You just need pushing around!

once we get past the argument of whos making tea goes quite smoothly i think. Oh and best bit is when he draws up a tune without listening and says lets see if this works cause 99% of the time it does and makes perfect sense.

no he really is!

hows it going stenchy

was just wondering, alot of people say you could write the worst tune posible, as long as its mixed down to its full potential its signed

would you agree agree that the mixdown is the key ?

cheers

i wouldnt really agree with that, but then again i would say that a shit tune with a wicked mixdown is more likely to get signed than a wicked tune with a shit mixdown
