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.

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.

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.
