Divide this up into equal squares;
Make it sound like the bottom right-hand corner
Not the top left- hand corner

Pretty hard to explain if it doesn't immediately strike a chord (no pun intended). It's kind of like how they say major chords sound happy and minor chords sound sad. Gives off a certain vibe.

lmao. OP You need to bake and listen to dubstep. That might open up your creative mind.

but in all seriousness the alpaca chord is the most used in dubstep. it gives it that uber filthy grimey wobblyz kind of tone. it goes half step, half step, half step, full step, half step, quarter step, half step. that should pretty much

I still don't understand what the alpaca is all about...
