[zerbaman]

Zebra, how'd you get your shit so loud? And is that sample from Alicia by Mala?

*zeRBa.

I do the initial project mixdown to around -5db.
I then "Master". Just band compression, and if more room can be taken, regular compression comes in.

And yeah, it is

nice, because what i plan pretty much stands and falls with good drum hits.
and yup, i got a pretty neat idea indeed. it's risky though, i'm fairly sure most dubstep people won't 'get it' if you can say so. but this isn't about winning (which doesn't mean i'm not gonna try to slaughter you all in this competition ). let me just say this much: all the production techniques i learnt through dubstep and drum n bass applied to a genre i haven't been in touch with since my childhood. it's gonna be awesome

also making a style i actually have no technical clue of is way more likely to yield results that are fresh and recognizable as opposed to just another one of the 1000000000 existing deep house/electro/dubstep/trance/gabba/whatever tunes.

[oprs]

its never about winning, its about maturing. always.

and i hope you blow us all away, i love new tunes.

[ChadDub]

I actually have no ideas at all, I'm just gona wing it, probably be done the composition in like 6-8 hours and then mixdown in another 1-2 hours. I have really no experience in writing full tracks yet, but I'mma try.

[ephyks]

I'll give it a shot. Need to keep my producing skills flexible.

[ephyks]

Oy, so wait. The time starts on Thursday, then ends on Saturday? Or starts now and deadline is Thursday? So vague?!?

[ChadDub]

IT SAYS THE STARTING TIME IN THE OP...

[oprs]

lol if you cant decipher times, maybe you shouldn't be trying to make tunes.

Contest starts tommorow at 12pm est time.
get your daws ready

if you happen to be a late comer, fuck it get something made and enter it, half way through the deadline ill sort the drop box and get everything ready.

[wub]

Contest starts tommorow at 12pm est time.

See, there is a problem with using words like 'tomorrow' in this sort of statement. As per my view of the forum, this message was posted Thu Jul 21, 2011 3:35 am, so 'tomorrow' in this instance would be Friday. However, the OP says "clock starts at 5pm bst, which is 12pm est. on Thursday. two days from now".

I'm sure you can appreciate where the confusion is coming from.

[nowaysj]

I'd like to participate in this. I may be able to. Still can't figure out when this is starting/stopping?

[ChadDub]

Thursday, July 21, 2011.

[nowaysj]

So this has started already?
