tripwire: liking the sound and melodies used in this one!
bassmagnet: i agree with trying to make the sounds mesh together a bit more in your one, but the drop is sounding good!

Soundcloud

Here's mine, I think its pretty finished so looking for some feedback, not sure whether to keep the different speed bassline in until the drop, but quite pleased with it overall as havnt been making beats long! needs a proper mix but any feedback appreciated! thanks

I love - and + feedback.
im really liking this man/ im running on some shitty headfones so idk if u even have a sub :( but if u dont this song could use a real huge sub bassline under what u got. only problem is that all the sounds are nice but they need to meld together or something idk they somehow seem so seperated but maybe thats just me
I see what you mean now with the sounds being separated. What part were you talking about though? I'll get to the sub once I have most of the bassline down :) Thanks for digging anyways brotha.
listening again i personally think just get some better bongo samples?

@Kotingo: Catchy sounds, nice drumwork. the midrange work could possibly have a bit more rawness to it. I don't think im explaining myself very well, but In my opinion a bit of mid-low growlyness wouldnt go amiss.

@trip: The new styled stuff is coming along quite well, not to sure about that 0:30-0:55 bit, twice feels like enough then you just impatient waiting for the drop :P, maybe a slight mixup.

Something a little different I sparked up in the early hours of this morning, reflecting my less than thrilled mood.

as usual. no banger or wobbler from me... still hope for some feedback...
i know. it's just 55 sec. all i want to know is actually: is it interesting enough? can you feel it too? do you have the strong feeling of wanting to hear more?

if yes i'll continue. if no.. i gues si'll continue too :lol:

Generally good, but you need to eq everything with a high pass filter below 120Hz (except for your kick drum and sub). Also eq/filter the kick drum below 70Hz-100hz depending on how it interferes with the sub.

Generally great though, you have some nice synth effects and panorama going on. :)

We Bang wrote:smooth......at first I was like hmmm....then as it came along I dug the smoothness on it. not a bad start. maybe beef up the sub just a tad
maybe you could kill the synth halfway through and just have the wobble and drums playin, the mid tone from the synth through kinda kills that hyped vibe.. just me though

the synths after the drop could maybe do with a bit more volume?

@JJiscooler not bad man but i agree try to get a bit more song composition to it, keep it up tho!
@cleanexecution sounding pretty good, got that dark vibe going on and the drums sound crisp.

didn't really get much feedback before so here's mine, I think its pretty finished, not sure whether to keep the different speed bassline in until the drop, but quite pleased with it overall as havnt been making beats long! needs a proper mix but any feedback appreciated! thanks
