Easy all, i'm not new to the forum, but this is my first post as a producer. This was the first tune I ever made. I hope you all like it, and any type of feedback will be appreciated!

Not bad first song but I am not really the best to give advice as I dont really listen to minimal or deep dubstep.

Any more takers?

some really nice percussion going on, and a a nice methodical rhythm and drive. I think it might benefit from more work on the hi hat making it sound less repetitive - get more different hi hat sounds and blend them with EQ etc rather than just the same hi hat sound for every hit. A great track overall, just doesn't sound quite finished to me.

Nice one man, very helpful comments. I haven't touched this in ages, might go over it, keeping what you said in mind.

One more for those who missed it.

That tom sound comes in panned a bit hard/too high a level. Quite distracting.

If you hit any triplets with a hat, my BIG piece of advice is use a different sample for alternating hits to make it sound a bit more natural. Hats especially can sound really odd.

I like the sub. I also like the synths in the main section. Apart from that tom, the percussion is really cool. I think this track has a lot of cool stuff going on. Nice job.

Even though I'd probably concentrate on more recent projects if I were you, elements from this could be used in a bigger project. It's got some cool stuff going on, but it needs more progression. Drum switchup, melodic changes, new elements, etc. 5.33 is a lot of time to hold attention.

Thanks for the response man, obviously this is pretty much my first production I did ages ago, so I'm not gonna revisit this, and a lot of what you highlighted I would of adjusted since then.

I'm glad you feeling
