Original post:
Hi all, I'm new here, the forums been a great help so far!

I started work on my first Dubstep tune today, and I was wondering if I could get some feedback please?

Obviously it's unfinished but I'd like to think it's not *too* bad :)

Thanks in advance!

arrangement is good, but mix is a little thin. i want to hear the bass up front, and more low end to it. personally id like to hear the drums a little steppier too, but that's a preference.

certainly great as a first dubstep track!

Nice drums, snare slams.

Like the original bass sound, but not completely sold on the main bass stabs, although its a nice riff. Like the breakdown.

Good tune.

This is the final version. I don't want to keep sitting on it else I'll never finish it, time to move on to the next tune. Let me know how it goes down bro, and thanks! :D

Sounds like its a dnb track slowed down - I know this is a criticism of a lot of dubstep but it seems very applicable here. Same sounds, same bassline, just lacking the amens. Would probably make quite a moody little roller if you just upped the tempo. Productions really good though.

You and Intoccabile know each other from DOA I take it

Fair play.

DnB was my number one love, but I think it's safe to say Dubstep has taken over now. I learnt a lot from going to FWD>> on Friday, so hopefully that experience will shine through when I start my next tune.

Any feedback is good feedback is my book, thanks! 8)

in that respect we have a lot in common, i think, except that thus far i haven't been blessed with the chance to go FWD>> or DMZ nights :(
..looking forward to hear your next track though!

very big
production is tight as fuck. groove is a bit sluggish tho, could maybe do with some skippier elements (hats) to give a bit of spice.
safe
