Please check out my new track 'Wasteland' and post your comments here!!!
wusup everyone! this is a track i made a few months ago - kinda finished it in a hurry so i reckon could do with some work. used a few bass samples for this one, as well as chopping up and programming a few beats. the scratching on the intro was done in one take so its not perfect either. would just be nice to see what u all think of it. starts off with a heavy hip hop beat (hardcore samples) for the intro then the dnb drops with the bassline. safe
This track has been deleted on the producer's request
after the hip hop beats you use the weird mixture of drums to make soem cool beats, but it still feels broken and like it's still the intro, it goes on so long. and stays there, even with a nice bass int ehb ackgroudna dnc ool pads, after using that odd mixture of drums for a bit, stick a drum break for a bit untilt eh drop, if this track has a drop.
oh wait 3:15... no that's the end of the song.
so you made a track without a drop. :/

I agree with halph, although it was a very nice track to listen to... it didnt have any energy other than the bass
throw a drop or two in it, make it longer, keep a steady break... chop it up for edits, and use that scratching a lil more imo
interesting track

That synth melody is great. In fact I'm really liking all the melodies in this one. It's very melodic and dreamy. I couldn't really get into the beats tho. They chop and change too much and the choice of beat sounds is wrong imo. If this was my track, I'd think about installing some constant heavier beats so give it extra fatness, perhaps inject a few breaks too. The structure needs work. A conventional dancefloor structure would work excellent in this tune.
Good stuff, I enjoyed.

doesent gel enough 4 me , gets alot better at the 2 minute mark thou , nice parts to the track , i dont think the scratching goes too well , i love scratching , i do it myself , but it has too be right "IMO" , matbe put some more delay and reverb on it to make it sound like its part of the track , instead of like the dj is doing it , it would be better without it , most of it soundz nice , i think the mixdown needs some work , abit more energy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks for the comments guys - yeah i know it needs more structure to it (and a drop lol) i guess this was more of an experimental track for me as i dont normally use that many different beats in one track. i focused more on the melodies on this one - not too sure if i can be asked to rework it!
been working on a few other tracks recently takin me aaages to finish (got a sorta jazzy blues-y dnb tune with some guitar riffs i recorded with a mate and then a dark anti-war protest tune with loadsa war speech samples etc lol)
noce intro, good intro track i think, scratching needs more of a pattern rather than a freestyle sesh, good intro to the HEAVY beats, vibe rolls along nicely, i think it needs more of a flow man, tune is a little cut up, at 3min 14 you have a nice flow, thats what should hold the tune and work around that, never the less its otiginal, powerfull, and crisp.
thanks.

nice intro, the pad works well through out the tune, you also use the congas well in the tune, and i think the snare works with the tune, i think the whole tune has an indian kinda feel. very different from your average dnb, its good to listen to some new ideas n styles. bass is nice too, not over done, keeps in with the fairly simplistic feeling tune. this wouldnt be the kind of tune i would listen generally but i didnt find myself getting bored at all, my head was bopping along so cant be bad at all. nice tune
hey all - well I'm glad a lot of you feel this one on a musical level! the tricky thing for me nowadays is being original but still trying to obide by DnB production rules - got to get the balance right! cheers again for the comments - much appreciated!
scratching is nice in parts, but is out of time in others. there is far too mutch of it as well it sounds more like some one else scratching over it and not part of the track. create a four to 8 bar loop that is bang on and then replicate it possably choping it up to create stutter effects. it is true doesnt have a drop, which generaly quite integral to a dnb tune. without one it sounds more like music for a film. there are a lot of good ideas though so it could definately be a good track, with a few alterations.
