Hi I made this in FL studio. Its my first track.
I know it might not be ideal, but I have sampled items in my kitchen and used them instead of vocals.

All feedback is appreciated, cheers. :W:

Skip to 0:55 if you dont want the intro
Ive made a poll aswell, to rate it from 1-5. (5 is highest)

Yo bro, Not bad eh. My first point would be the drums.
They're too... natural? I dunno how to put it, but they need to be a fair bit louder,
and I suggest choosing a more synthetic snare, for the more brosteppy sorta sound you're going for.

Also, when that bass comes in at about 55s in, it dominates the frequencies used by your kick drum, drowning it out. Some EQ-ing and a spectrum analyzer are in order! haha
Also, try to variate the LFO sync more on you wobbles, try for 8th's, 12th's and 16ths, as the bass in dubstep is also a rhythmic element, as much as a music one.

I mean, like, your synth use is fine, it's your percussion letting you down here, you need to work on your drums.

Hey, better than my first track :D

the cake was wrapped in cling film, so it makes a clicky sound. I used it in one of the patterns layered onto the drums.

Cheers for the comments above
