ok i cant really comment on the bass cos im listening with ear plugs..

yeh im feeling the breaks, they sound well nice - very dj spooky-esque, i think that the loop ur using is a bit repetetive though, that cymabl and drum roll gets a bit samey, maybe u could extend it a bit? the sound effects r nuts though, it sounds like alot of time and effort went into them.. also i reckon u should work on the begining a bit, get a super fat drop going... but yeh overall it is well good, i noticed the drms change up half way too, sounding nice and broken (lol im listening as i type...)
good stuff chubs

awesome mate. really. love the low-fi sampled drums, they have a trip-hop flavour to them. Dunno if I would call it dubstep though.

really feeling this. nice and raw and loving all the chops on that break...more of a jungle tip production style. i've been thinking about chopping up breaks for some dubstep tunes, but haven't gotten to it yet. feeling juvenile delinquent too.

yeah mate, really cool one. maybe that kick is a bit too hard though im digging it at the same time :P maybe i would layer another kick over it with a more ounchy sound.

Glad you like it :D

Its my first crack at jungle influenced dubstep vibes, theres a new bit up on myspace now called 'Octagon' which is much more electronic sounding. As for the bassdrum, I had a crack at replacing/layering it but that crunchy kick is such a part of the tune I've decided to leave it as is for the mo.

Cheers for the feedback, always welcome

yah, nice work!

i just think the kick is too heavy.
you could put either more sub in it or cut the midrange-frequencies of it - it just takes too much frequency-space as it is now, i think.

the arrangement is wicke' - there's not much going on but always something new in the background/atmosphere - like it!

like those sampled drums!

keep going, i really dig your stuff! ;)

cheers
