Here's something I just started working on yesterday. It's chillout/downtempo with dubstep elements but I don't think it could be classified specifically as dubstep. Id say it's much more chillout than anything else.

Well for a start you could just try turning them down a tad and then cut the very higher end frequencies. A little dab of light reverb with a short decay or a quick, snappy delay would help a lot.

i like the idea of the tune, i think you need to turn the drums up a bit though and maybe move around some kicks to keep everything flowing well!
digging it though, cant wait to hear more progress!

@charliefoy
I'd say the only weakness to that is the kicks. Placement is a bit klunky. Also after 2.15 it gets a bit generic.

Thanks mate! I'll look into my drum layering and compression see what I can do. =D

Alright cheers :) I'll work on it today, probably gonna scrap the other half of the track and get rid of that wobble.
Im mixing on passive's so if anythings off thats why!

Cheers ill work on that :) yeah i might keep the wobble but make it a little more subtle and add some reverb to it. And maybe another pad type synth to fill in the gaps.
Would you suggest using less kicks?

Yeah I always find that kicks should be used to propel the track and keep it going. Maybe change the kick on the 3rd beat to a clap or something. This is more down to personal opinion though.
