Turn the lights down, turn the dial to the max and sit back.

Mate, not even Loefah himself likes that track! The snare is just too loud and harsh to my ears. The bass is on point but the snare just ruins it.

He doesn't like anything he makes from what I hear

Compared to modern Dubstep that snare is alright I think.

i like the snare in that tune.

@JFK

what about the snare in this tune very similar

The tunes are a bit tiresome after a while when not heard out or when you're playing them out though.

Just my 2cents.

Midnight + System = win

DMZ has vibe and feeling over production values and sonic perfection (even though they sound perfect to me). The simplicity gets to the point and evokes the feeling without millions one automation lanes and overly complex programming and that is what makes is timeless 'music' as opposed to trendy 'dubstep' . My Opinion.

See, that snare to me sounds like its based on a wood block so it doesnt have that horrible, harsh, metallic sound that the one in the Loefah tune does. Also it doesnt seem to be as high in the mix as the Loefah one so its not as over powering.

Rude boy!

Very good way of doing it. I think working like this gives it such a good feel! Reminds me of oldskool music made on hardware where it was all about the track first, not the production.

The grammar in my last post was awful, meh, point understood.

Yeh its cool.

I think my post prob makes no sense tho lol. I know what I want to say in my head but I am hanging today.

I like how people can make music on a computer and make it sound 'live'. Leaving the little mistakes and just going for it and seeing what happens. I love it. I am really not into all this over produced stuff.

HA, but you spend so much time worrying about the quality of your production.

I have spent sometime on it but its the flow and structure that is holding me back. I get bored too fast with the same loop and think it sounds too repetitive so have too many changes it ruins the flow. Or I don't make enough and it sounds boring lol

you should really get someone to collab with who can check u when ever u start messing integral parts of loops

That's it right there. Sticky that. That's the rub.

Getting the balance right is hard. You want to keep the groove going thru the track but you want to switch it up in places or it gets boring. Doing it at the right points and making the right kind of changes is tricky.

To say the least.
