The over all sound quality seems good to me. Kudos for that. The problem, in my opinion, is that it lacks tension. There's no build up or release. It sits on the same groove the whole time, there's no "drama". It's like funky house with mid range "wobble", and I don't particularly care for funky house. I guess my only suggestion would be to introduce a different groove and sit on it for a little bit. It just feels like I'm hearing the same thing over and over. Maybe add a "drop" or two. I don't really like the 4-on-the-floor kick in these songs either. I don't make dubstep so take this for what it's worth. I think you gots skillz, and I applaud you on doing what you do. Keep it up. I know no one ever replies on these other than to say "sounds like gay american shite" or whatever, but I got a free second haha. Good luck!

PS I'm specifically referring to Dinno Manz, and Oh Yeahhhhhh!!

Dude, you're killin' me! Sorry I didn't make it past those first two songs last time. Your shit is the tits. Gotta hate The Black Eyed Peas, but I love that *drumstep style. I don't know if you meant it this way, but it seems more like you're **takin' the piss out of them rather than making a remix, and that is awesome. I really like that you keep the styles varied in your tracks, I don't feel like you're recycling your own drums or synth sounds. I would guess that a lot of regular posters on here would hate your music, but not because it's bad, because it's grimey. I can get down with all that shit! Keep it up!

*by drumstep I mean dnb/dubstep (I'm unclear of the current definition of that word haha)
**I'm american but when im on this forum i like to use phrases that ppl from the UK use, even if i'm not sure if it's the right context

nice one bro :) good to hear some propa feedback on here!!!
and just so you know, Drumstep is half time drum & bass... drum and bass style drums but double the bars so the bassline is fast.
can be achieved by making tunes at dubstep tempo n cramming a drum n bass drum line in there... which i do
or doing halftime at drum and bass tempo...
its wierd but yeahh...

Cheers man! :)
