@bad boi lee: Nice and hard track, but I don't like the kicks :)
@Psythe: omg, what a track :p i think you can say it's a banger ;) Nice work man
@abZ: Not really dubstep :p but i like the idea and I like the little vocals in the tune.. But maybe add a litte riser to add some more climax? but, nice job

New dubstep track i made.. Just a first version ;)

@jaspervc Word man thanks for the up's. Im diging your track,the kick is more a click than a kick and the bassline needs a little EQ tweaking other than that id say just tear it up with that robo womp more throughout the song and you got yourself dirty track.

Would love to hear it when you finish it... It looks very promising

@jaspervc like someone said before, the bass and drums needs to be eq'ed, but i'm feeling it, lots of potential.
@joemackin nice work! really good for a first track, though the bass still needs some work though, imo. keep it up!
@rightontime27 i'm loving the bass! if you work on the drums and a solid intro this could be pretty good :D

Nice! That caughtinhysteria sample could use some more shimmy though, it gets lost in the middle of the mix on my shitty system, I'd try a bit of reverb and flanger, but that's just me on no sleep.

Diggin' the vibe there! Maybe throw in one or two extra percussive elements to shake things up a bit once every couple of bars, some delay on the clap here and there and some chopped up reverbed parts of the vocal once in a while to bring it together.

@Karanp - Got a good vibe going on here but the beats need a lot of work still (your perc is working nicley tho). The vocals are a bit random though, i'd suggest processing them quite a bit and doing something different with them. Maybe a bit more melody could be introduced but I really liked the trumpet/sax sample you should try working a bit more melody with that if possible. Bassline could do more as well but I guess there still a lot to do so looking forward to hearing it finished.

@abZ - Funky house eh.. not too shabby at all. Didn't think I was going to like it as its not really my thing but the melody is nice n catchy and I'm enjoying the progression too. Can't really suggest much apart from maybe the percussion being a bit quiet. Good use of the vocal but not entirle sure bout the hit it one :lol:

@WAG - Don't really comment on the 'bro' style music but your track sounds very thin/tinny. I'd suggest going back to basics and working on improving the overall quality of most of your samples. Also whats up with that beeping sample, sounds like your just about ready to get that munch out the microwave. Sorry :(

@Jaydot - Someones already commented but I have to repeat... Really??

@Charliefoy - Deep sub and actually quite like the wobble not overabused and works well with the tune. Not sure about the first bleep sample itself but I like the lower notes that get played. I'd suggest layering your snare its quite tinny and the kick seems to hit a bit low hz wise that might interfere with your sub so i'd suggest a low cut on the eq.

Any other feedback for this one?

Think i'm going to wrap this one up and call it a day.

@lp
Cheers dude! yeah i didnt actually use wobbles as such for the main bass
Anyway ill work on the kick and snare, and i might lower the sub a bit, think it tends to over power things a tiny bit

Oh and feedback on yours-Love it! just right i think, nice and chilled. Really fresh sound :)

Causing Hysteria yeah, I wanted to turn it up but there is no acapella, I had to use it straight from the original tune, luckily it is in the same key as my song so it disappears into mine but if I turn it up anymore you start to notice it more. There is a way to jack it up tho I am sure.

@lp maybe it needs percussion to begin with? There isn't really much going on there just getting riddem from all the sounds playing off each other. Or do you mean turn up the snare? When it drops it is kinda empty sounding on purpose because I want to highlight the bassline and set the song up for the build up.

@abz nice elevator vibe but with that twist just makes ya bob your head nice track.
@lp dig the dark churchy intro that evolves in ambience the song carries nicely.
@wabble sick erie Area 51 type intro then the nasty muk of that bass makes ya wanna dry heave great track man.
@charleyfoy Wow for being 15 id say for sure you're gonna be well respected good track man keep it up.
