Heya, I've been producing music in my bedroom since my mom introduced me to good electronic music when I was 11. I'm focusing on becoming an expert in my field and to be worthy of releasing my own material soon. Here is a demo I'd like some constructive criticism on. It's unmastered but pretty much mixed, though I had to do it with bose headphones and no good sound system. Thank ye!

This one is unfinished and has been sitting in my hard drive for quite a few months:

Also here is a link to my debut EP I put together. Name your price!

nice job man...you shouldn't only do electronic music if thats what you are doing. You should make and listen to other genres and it will make your tracks sound more unique and interesting...keep at it man, good work. Im 15 and unsigned by the way lol

Thanks man! I'm very open when it comes to music and though I make electronic I have an appreciation for all kinds of music. My iTunes has over 10k songs that ranges from 60's beach sambas to 70's concrete music experiments to 30's big band music, etc. I think having a wide range of influences can better one's work, too.

Well I have to say, for being made with headphones only, this has some nice bass. Just wait until you can afford some monitors or a decent stereo system. Pretty good young man.

Good stuff man

I have been following on SC for a few months now, and have been hearing good things from you man. I forgot you was only 16 (I think you was 15 when I started following). Your work has got a much higher standard, than most of the new guys around here.

This has to be my personal favorite from you;

You and Zerbaman( http://soundcloud.com/zerbaman ) are a few of the youngsters around here that give me some faith in the next generation of dubstepers.

Hope it all goes well for you, and keep working on it (like you can stop once you got the bug lol)

Peace,
3za.

Thanks guys!
@ElectronTechnician, haha I have to compare and balance out how well it sounds between my headphones, earphones, car speakers, and mac speakers. It's a grueling and tedious process.

@3za, Thanks mate! I have some new demos but don't know where to post them since I can't seem to find the feedback thread [did they died?] haha. You can check out http://soundcloud.com/working-demos for works in progress. Many of them are my abandoned children.

This track I finished today:

It did die, but it's back now http://www.dubstepforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=190115

Will check out your wips in the next few days (most likely tomorrow)

Edit: that track you just posted up is wicked!

GOOD TO HEAR IT! then ignore what I said because you got it man...and I really like the flow of your tracks man theyre nice and each one is different from the others

At first I was like "Oh great, another 16 year old who bought a 'dubstep' album by ministry of sound and thinks he's the shit" then I was actually pretty impressed. Props for not sucking and making inventive music. Not so keen on the second track but that's personal taste more than anything and I think the first one is seriously awesome has a really beautiful trip-hop/dubstep blend feel, reminds me of a lot of prefuse 73 in a good way, really well thought out and interesting - I genuinely love it. As for crit, well there's not much I can say, you really have the production down and your structure is solid and musically you're doing all the right things. All I'd say is that I beg of you to make more tunes like the first and not go the 'nasty' wobble route but I'm sure plenty of others will disagree with me and want moar wobblez.

Haha thank you! I have made many more tunes but chose those two, as I thought they'd be suiting for this forum [I don't really make dubstep]. The second tune is more of a satire on the whole badass-pop-synthie-fad-narcissistic-software music genre thats blown up recently. Check out my soundcloud or bandcamp for more tracks :D
PS: Prefuse 73 is awesome.
