ah nice one guys

really enjoying making dubstep at the mo - its brought back some of the experimentation & fun d&b used to have when i first started (i still love d&b but tbh it can be a little bit restrictive these days in terms of structure etc)

Got back from work & started messing with a drum pattern i'd had sat in my projects folder for a while... was clearly in the right mood coz i've pretty much got a final tune sorted.

It's called The Guide & it's on our Myspace - www.myspace.com/sonictraumauk

Would be great to get some feedback if ...

I've been producing d&b for years & currently have a few bits & pieces out on mp3 & vinyl labels under the alias 'Felon'.
