Hello DSF! I would greatly appreciate any feedback on this. I'm having trouble with the mix and I need some help taking the next step in my production. I will listen to your song and give feedback for feedback on mine. Thanks!

Nice man! I like your synthwork! I reckon try not to overdo the drums too much in the intro, they are nice drums and you wouldn't want to ruin that by throwing 'em all over the place :) also, maybe give the snare a little more low-mid range roughly 200Hz I'd say. After all that, you could TRY giving the sub a little more weight but really it sounds fine from here (no harm in trying though).
You'll have yourself a dope tune bro. Peace :)

Thanks, man! :D I really appreciate it. For giving the sub more weight, what would you suggest? Should I put some chorus on it or detune it? And I get what you're saying about the drums. I'm a drummer and I tend to overplay so I guess that must've leaked in. haha :P
I listened to Face Crack. :6: I'll post in your thread now.

Don't chorus your sub as this will make it a lot weaker. I think the sub is probably fine for the style of dubstep :S

I really like the break down, maybe make the sub decay a bit more instead of being so constant.

Regarding the drums, make sure the kicks and hats are building some swing, so I would say drop some of the kicks in the intro, particularly the ones which are doubled up. I also think you should fiddle with the 3 snares in a row, change the velocity and timing of them to get it a bit more natural.

:W: Thanks antics! Definitely gotta fix up the drum arrangement. That 3 snare phrase is annoying me now lol Definitely overused. I'm currently listening to your song and will shoot you a post in your thread. :)
