Please check out my new track 'Biscuit Tin (second mix)' and post your comments here!!!
Quick song I have just knocked off. Some sounds may be modified, as some are samples from another track of mine 'Feeding Hand' (Yep I will finish it one day!)
Darkish roller this one is. Just started it, so needs more work. Any idea's suggestions appreciated.
Thanks to all you lot who gave my last track a listen, especially for the advice/help on the darker grindy bassline version. I'm giving it a little break to give it a fresh listen/ideas. But it will be back
Nice! This one has quite a few similar elements to the last tune, especially the beats. It's also got that slightly industrial feel, which is good. The only real improvements I can see to this are to adjust some of the levels. The guitar is coming out a little too loud and the beats are a little too quiet I reckon. You deffo need to think about replacing or layering the kick with something bigger sounding. It's a bit flat again cos there's too many high frequencies in it and not enough low-mids. Also, the sub could do with boosting too.
But yeah, a very decent tune. It's got your style all over it. I enjoyed it the whole way through.
Btw, I just deleted your previous version as requested.

nice atmos.
1 of the hihats seems a little too panned to one side.
nice effort with this.
could really use more effort on the mixdown of the beats though mate.
sounds a little bare too. layer some nice breaks in there, maybe just one or two fillers.
also another kick on the kick and snare on the snare.
try some phat reeces to fit in n around the tune too. i think some of them slammiong in and out would sound really good.

Cheer Tomos. Gonna make some more changes to it. Personally, I'm not over happy with the beat. I'm going to have to sort out a decent stereo. I can't always hear what you are describing. I thought I would get complaints about the droning noise being to loud... Glad you enjoyed it anyway, cheers mate.
Seven Gun: Cheers for listening mate. It does sound a little bare. I think the sound needs boosting. I might try creating a reece, but personaly, I get a bit bored with reeces now days. That is why I like the guitar sound, even though its not a guitar and something I created with Malstrom.
atmos is nice and the hats arrangment in intro is good,
beats are a little weak, snare seems to get lost in the mix a little, could use another layer to give it
more snap. kick is a little flat too, doesn't stand out enough.
sub is pretty deep but maybe a little boost around 70hz would bring it out a bit more, would warm the track up.
droney atmos in background works well, helps the structural changes to flow together nicely.
decent track overall, defo original and could be a good tune if the beats are sorted out, kick and snare need to be more in your face and maybe another perucssion line would beef everything up a bit.
good work tho!

Cheers Sephiroth,
I'm going to make the beats harder. Thanks for the advice on the sub. I will check that out.
I might try eqing some other elements aswell. I don't normally do much equalizing with Reason

dark business going on !!!!!!!!! nice parts to it , i think the drop could be better , a bit sudden 4 me , the track needs the bass boost "IMO" as well , not to sure about the funny hats , seem to be a bit off key to me , nice thou !!!!!!!
eazy bruce! intro has got ur trademark dark ambience about it
yeah i recognise some of the samples from feeding hand. like that crazy synth stab. im not being funny but i reckon some vocals of someone screaming or sumthin would fit quite niceley on this track! (just another one of my mad suggestions don't pay any attention).
hows about another synth or 2 to compliment that one you've got going already, maybe switch it up an octave and take the bass up high with it
hope my jibberish makes sense, if not pm me and i'll try n explain in english!
Thanks Clarkfader. I know what you mean aabout the hats. It does need a better drop aswell. Thanks for listening. I would review your current remix track, but I don't want to listen to it at the moment, because I'm gonna do a mix of it shortly
Nice 1
Cheer Ketz. I have thought of putting a vocal in to it. More a whisper than a scream
Saying that, I have been screaming at the track myself. I'm having a bit of troubles with the beats flowing
I did also change the beats to a two step instead, but it sounded a bit sludgy...
Will finish it hopefully soon. I keep getting distracted at the moment. Just been trying to finish my first Reason track and upload to this site. Here is a link of the older version...http://www.drumnbass.be/vote.html?id=2892&d=1
