Just started this, come to a bit of a stop. Any feedback, ideas, things to add/takeaway would be great. Also ideas for a sample? Thanks

Also there is no sub bass for the second half of the song, so ignore that..

Crazy track you got there! Sounds quite interesting, do you have some sortof compression or limiting on the master out? If so i think the track could do without that. All the different parts sound interesting, just maybe a bit cluttered, Id reccomend going at the parts with some eqin and have a go at chaning up the levels! Good start there though

Sounds really great, not really sure how you could improve it? Maybe give the gritty synth a bit of a volume boost, but maybe not. Hard track mate, would go off at a rave.

not tooooo original ,but it has its place... just kinda started having at it... first time in a while ive made a beat...
this is just one sitting, gonna tighten everything up, edit the filter on the one synth in the intro and then add the melody from the intro 24 bars into the drop (maybe 32) and also make the drums change a little more as it goes on. also the intro drums will be tightened too. snares also need to probably be brought up a touch and the kick down a hair.
its a tune to bring you out of wobble into more chilled beats, but still keeping that dubby bassline tension. transition stylee. trying to go pretty minimal while filling the space. made for the room we hold our nights in.
let me know if you are feeling the vibes

Nice rolling track, sounds seriously smooth. Deeeeeeep vibes. The synth could maybe be a bit prominent in the mix but i seem to say that about every track i listen too ha.

Great track man, would love to see where it develops.

nice starts on both of these tracks, haven't really got much to say in terms of feedback but they're sounding good, especially the first one, i'm liking the sample mixing with the sub
here's this track i've been working on

I really like this one, the beat is nice and garagey and i really like the kind of rim shotty snare thing, fits perfectly in my oppinion. My critisism would be that maybe the bass is too heavy? But im not really listening on anything worthy of reviewing bass at the moment. Sounds cool

Drops are definatley the right way round, nice big kick in there but i think the clap is a bit lacking. Maybe layer it up withsomething to help it come through the mix a bit more? Liking the little shuffley things you got going on in the background. They add alot but maybe they could be lower in the mix. Also, really like the chopped up break you got in there, goes really well with the synth on the drop.
Big up man, sick tune.

@Phantom Banger: Loving the 8bitty retro vibes on both of them, two good starts
@W00: Yeah that's a nice deep track, good start there, maybe a little more in terms of percussion, an extra layer of subtle hats or something?
This is my latest WIP, you may have heard it before but I've reedited it:

I'm really liking A Milli, feeling the beats and the sub

The second one has potential too, i think you should try turning the synth down, and giving it some more space.

posted this before, but now i added some sub, and worked on the mix a bit. feedback would be great

i really liked what you had going on in the intro, but once the sub kicked in, i kinda thought it started losing the flow. The subs sounding wayy too loud on my sub woofer, and there's too much repition. I think this has real potential if you could fix that up.

I'll turn the sub down, and try mixing it up a bit. Cheers for the feedback,

nice one on the milli remix!! it defo needs to be mixed down quite a bit, there's a lot of weird stuff going on there, but the melody line and the riddim are rock solid. might suggest using some different drums? the second one keeps glitching out, my connection is wack, so i'll give it more of a listen later.

the breaks are awesome and the shuffle is serious. i would say that the main problem with the mid bassline is that its way too stereo. put it in mono and see how it feels. also, put some subs under it man! make they speakers flex
check this one out though if ya got a minute:
