Whilst in a way you could argue that a range of sub genres shows versatility, you could also say that if one artist has a good grasp on one particular sub genre then they're half way there to having a style, but a style in terms of motifs and sounds is different.

I always use the same pad for my chilled out tracks for example, and delayed keys but it gets a bit repetitive eventually and it's time to branch out eventually.

I think someone's style will show through regardless of genre, and that trying different things gives you inspiration, stops you becoming an ingrown toenail.

Safe mang ! Glad your enjoyed, you was one of the people I wanted to impress! hehehe, but I am started to bring more "action" instead of "space" into my newest productions, the summer feeling is making me wanna make people dance! I can see why a lot of people are not making the spacier stuff these days, just the shear adreline you get when you make some bouncey tune, its unbeatable!

your style will naturally develop over time as long as you do what you want to hear rather than what you think people want to hear.

A number of people on hear who think their music is 'deep' would be shocked to hear it is actually just straight up boring. Same goes for the so called 'dark' tracks! where's the dark atmos??????

Very relative, and even mood based. Some days I can listen to the same 2 bar loop for 8 hours straight, some days I'm annoyed by the lethargic flapping of the humming bird wings outside my windows.

hahahah this! I laugh when people say they've made a deep track and it turns out to be code for dull. deep/dark does not = simple/boring

I wont say any names and tbh I am prob guilty of it myself. I now try to avoid naming what my shit sounds like. Deep is hard to do and it takes quite a bit of work to create a deep atmosphere. Having a few floaty synths with some background noises with loads of reverb is not all that is required! the processing on everything needs to be going in the same direction and fit with the track or it is going to sound 'nearly there'.

Lets not get started on the so called 'dark basslines' people keep naming their md range patches.

Oh let's, that shit cracks me up to no end. I can literally hear their pimples popping and ejecting puss onto their monitors as they type. Sorry for that.

Haha, its all subjective anyways Serox, people seek different things in tracks what fall under their own boundries of "deep" or "dark" not everyones a traditionalist like us anymore, i wouldn't get so elitest and pissy about it..

I cant help it

By people calling things dark and deep it is making the names meaninless:/

Its a bit like 'friends' on facebook. I have all these people on there under friends but I wouldn't even call them friends. Calling someone a friend has lost its meaning.
