So guess i'm too late for this one. But that's a good thing, now I can go out and enjoy the sun in stead of finishing my mediocre track Just started out learning Ableton anyway, so i'm not even close to the quality of some of the tracks posted..

I'll be sure to vote when i have listened them all. And maybe try again for the next one.
jwz! stem op uwe medelanders!
haha, geen idee welke jouw/jullie track is. Zal ik dan maar op de meest kazige stemmen

Am doing the listening now

Feedbacks I wrote down while listening thru (sorry theres quite a bit!) - no offence intended whatsoever:

Dark Elixir -
loving the atmosphere on this track its well dark and spacious. Spesh liked the ambience in the intro. Not sure about the bass tho, but its hefty

Liking the minimal vibes innit.

Controbuz -
Glitched up jerky bizness - the bubbly blippy noise is maybe a bit loud? Not personally my cuppa tea, manned it to 2 mins then the erraticness (sp?) of the mid bass made me turn it down... (no offence meant!), but good effort!

Hills -
That was the longest build up!! Again I'm not a lover of "teh mid range wobblez",but its making my sub go for it!

Melodik -
Dude!! That bass is awesome! Proper jungley styles!! I wish I could make bass like that ha! Like the random cut up sitar bits. And the like I guess you could say UK Funky vibes you got on the drums and percs. The cowbell/conga/booop perc sorta noise (I dunno what it is!) in the drums, could maybe have dropped out entirely outta the drum pattern at some point, or maybe been filtered or had a delay chucked on it to vary it up. But overall I like it! Was interesting!

Naroja -
Like the drum pattern a lot - very skippy. Not loving the wobblez tho...sorry love. Short and sweet tho!!

Miretz -
Another dark and spacious intro! I like the bassy kicky shakery business ...pads sound lush too.

Mr. C -
Nice atmosphere, sounds all warm. The bass seems a bit quiet might be my speakers tho....or Virb. I think the clappy bizness is a bit loud tho...as are vocals...but thats just my opinion!! Like the bongos near the end!! And that squishy noise.

Vertex -
Nice drum patterns!! Like the way its varied enough to not get repetitive and sound like a repeated loop - big ups on that. Sub bass is lovely!! Well nice production on this. Second drop's the one innit. Not sure about the duck type bass noise tho...I keep thinking about ducks now...but overall sick production. Like how that arp noise is getting well intenser as it goes on!! Good ideas!

Kaizoku -
Thats a right gabba kick. I wrote down "GABBA" in big letters next to this...for some reason! Like the idea. It does sound like some kinda slowed down bassline bizness tho! Like the filter thing on the mid bass....when it goes up. Bass sits well together. Blagged as to how you made this outta them samples tho ahha! To be fair am with most peoples!! Growing on me as it's playing this one. Bouncy but evil!! I still think its slowed down bassline tho!

Huzki -
Good production...but I prefer the darker more ambient style of tings personally. But sounded well put together.

Boomstix -
Drums sound really tight, and go well with the sub bass. I didn't like the higher bass noise tho sorry!

Wrexile -
Lovely drums. Nice and crispy on the top end. Well nice groove to it all. Around 2 mins sounds lush with all the filters on the pads and stuff. Nice production dude. Bass is all round and warm. Very nice!

Reverend -
Dude it sounds like the background for a SAW film...evil! I'm fully confused by this beat. I can barely hear the drums. Good work on the evil vibes tho.

Listened to em all, realised halfway thru they must've changed the song length rule to 4 mins

My head now hurts. Gonna have to think who to vote for...cheers to whoever has already given me one vote!!! Wooo!

Well done to everyone, nice ideas coming out.

Oh and I voted for Vertex - "Whole Thing" eventually innit. Sick tune.

Cheers for the vote and thanks for the feedback.

It's my first go at a dubstep tune, and it took me a lot longer than expected, but I learned loads while making it.

The drums did take quite a while, I often spend ages on the smallest bits but I like stuff where where no 2 bars are the same. I know what you mean about the duck type sounds tho, I was trying to get a reece type sound, but it wasn't easy with the limited samples, and I was planning on tweaking the LFO to make it sound a little more wobbly and aggressive, but I ran out of time and had to get something in before the deadline.

I did carry on working on it as I never seem to consider a tune finished, I only made a few changes but I thought I may as well put the new version of it on myspace, at least I've got a tune on there now!

It's not hugely different if you liked v1 then v2 is worth a listen.
