This is what i've been working on lately, i feel its much better than other things i've posted here in the past, please feel free to leave constructive feedback, and please don't say it needs more random noises/gunshot sounds or porn stars moaning. Thank you! ;-)

lol, thx bro. I'll look into that, should I put in the fart noises in random edits around the track or loosely based around the percussion?

Cool man, I think the lead line is totally catchy. However, it's way, way louder than the drums. I think if you temper the overtones in the lead line and turn it down everything will sit really well and the drums will sound HUGE. I really want the drums to just slap me in the face with this tune :o

i like the vibe of this track, nice and dark, i can imagine this being a good soundscape in a movie
What could make this better would be some glitch drums, crazier kicks and stuff

That sounds like a great idea, however, how would you go about "tempering" the over tones, i ask because I don't know if you mean just turn it down straight out or apply some particular process that is specifically made for "tempering overtones" ...sry i haven't figured out all the jargon yet.
I have applied some side chaining because of the volume difference to try and make them pop out more, if you could get a bit more into detail about what you mean I would surely try it without hesitation, thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Nice track bro, unfortunately I cannot really get into changing the drums drastically with this one because i built this from the top down starting with the musical elements, and I just wont have room for 3 or 4 more bass kicks without the side chaining significantly warping my lead/bass line in wierd ways. However i will take your advice and look at adding some glitches in the transisitions (like some CD studder type FX or something) to make the transitions cooler.

This is like a dubstep version of Come to daddy by Aphex Twin. Very nice sounds especially the tearing bass. Atmosphere works really well too. Maybe some vocal sample would work? But definitely no gunshots or porn stars moaning. :D

Totally, the side chaining works well. By tempering I was only suggesting you might eq down those high frequencies a little bit (or not, it's to your taste not mine), but that will definitely help the snare hit shine a bit more IMO.

Ahhh ok got it, yea ok I'll experiment with some more EQ'ing, altho i did notch the kick and snare out of the bass. I'll see what I can do. Thank you!

I like the vibe this track has, but it really seems more like a good hip hop beat, doesnt really come across as dubstep to me, but still a nice track
