This is DnB's equivalent of Death Metal - I loved it! (Do you listen to Death Metal by any chance?) There's some seriously impressive programming going on here and some seriously impressive things you've done with beat breakdowns and fills, particularly at 1.38, 3.36, 4.30 and 4.41.

No complaints really, apart from there being too much echo with the "Darkness" vocal sample and it's repeated too often. Also, perhaps the bass could be turned up a little - the beats overides it a bit loud.

Apart from that, well done bro!!

you dont like death metal?? hmmm.
i would put this style as a child of death metal and gabba techno, with the grandparent been dnb.
excellent programming.
i like the other version better tho.

Wow, this is quite an improvement over the original IMO.

Loving the bass sounds. The bass may be drowning out some other sounds a bit though. Fuckin cool tho.

Great FX and drums.

Maybe the snare could cut through more tho, either another layer, or a slightly pitched up version of the same one layered on what you have.

This is definitely the start of something great. This track will be totally slammin and get signed for sure. nice 1!

Also, I am SO glad you removed that synth. Smile I really hated it.

thanx for the puts

@ harplainsdrifter

yeah man thanx , i thought the snare was a bit muffles away , thats because all the frequencies above + might be compression too


So now i'll just do this: (and try to get it signed Big Grin )

*Lower the stereo of the wide bass a bit

*EQ the frequencies of my basses away to keep my snare loud (snare was eqed very loud at start but all the other sounds muffled it up a bit)

*Some last edits by hand , last eqing , last compression



any ideas how you do final compression ? i just use the standard compressor in fruity Frown dunno if thats ok ?

get soundforge and izotope ozone (pm, aim if you dont)

export the wav without any limiting or compression on the master channel

load the wav in soundforge, and use izotopes multiband compressor, and/or limiter on it. keep the input gain low on the limiter, and try to get as much threshold as you can.

watch out for sub levels before exporting because if theyre too much they tend to fuck up the limiting

I cant get into much detail atm, hit u up later on aim but basically by using this method youre avoiding the fruitys engine for limiting.

Good ideas I think. I'll have to hit you up for Ozone advice; I tend to ruin everything with it by overlimiting/ overcompressing, pretty much overdoing everything.
