1. No offence but that snare is weaker than a north korean seamstress. layer it with more snares, compress, and reverb.
2. please dont put movie clips. it just makes the track so much cheaper and cheesier.
3. Beef up the wobbles, they sound a bit weak.
4. make sure to have a proper buildup before the drop. i feel like the bass just kind of came out of nowhere.

im not trying to be mean im just being blunt with the feedback :4:

No worries man this is totally the sort of thing I need :)

I am working on the drums right now, as you said they were pretty weak. Reason being they were just rubbish drums already in the program so I found some plugins to give it more of a "pound" :D

As you pretty much summed up everything just needs that extra work to improve and overall improve the track

Well imo, the wobbles don't sound weak, but other synths to go with it and better drumkit sounds would be an extreme bonus.

Thanks man, I just played the track again, I am thinking about changing a bit of the automation rate throughout, it seems a little jumpy now...

I will find some decent synth sounds etc. to use :)

Haha, I assume thats a joke? I don't mind Brostep, well some of it, but I find Skrillex just a bit to much :lol:
