Please check out my new track 'Gothik' and post your comments here!!!

Trying to create a darkside track here got it sounding kinda old skool at the moment and maybe like to keep it that way. some may say the bass is a bit repetative but most tracks in this style do tend to be, so thats not too much of an issue to me since ive managed to keep the drums varied. anyways lemme know what u all think
take it ez

Forget liquid, jump up and darkside drum n bass is the way forward!

aa ...first of all ...its too quiet...i had to turn up me headphones a lot to hear anything...but that aside...interesting...not much change and melodies in there...since im a melodies fan, this left me a little cold...think it needs some serious tweakin to sound more roomy...sorry mate for being so blunt ...some extra stabs here n there....drumz programming ain't bad but the sound Q needs some work...uu and that bass sample (the prrr one) not feelin it...needs some body

Overall tweak it a little and ul have sth good Smile

Don’t like the sound of you bassline, sounds pretty dry and uninspiring. Drums sound good so far, though in combination with your noisy bassline their sound isn’t too good.

If you don’t want to change up the melody of your bassline then at least change the bell synth one or simply add some notes to it after a while.

I think your tracks have some potential that you’ve never exhausted because of the lack of variation, bad choice of sounds or a too calm mater volume it.

Keep it up!

its like your bass frequencies are filtered or your mids, or its just to hard compressed
the drums on your earlier tracks where much fuller dude
dont dig this one
its less melodic, and production is little distorted of highs

easy, love the drums bruv! real high energy stuff, sound real fast and mean like! do have to agree with the others about the eqing of it all and stuff, is a bit high endy and a bit cluttered but sort that out and u got some good shizzle.

yeh i c what u mean about it being repetitive - thats all cool with me but i rekon u shouldnt start the bass at the start of the tune. try loading up some atmos samples or have a bloke saying some random nonsence i.e. "there once was a man from..." or somink like that. yeh then build up the drums, have a sweepy noise for the build and a drum roll and then boooom, bass drop. yeehh.

anyways, its got potential - work on it a bit more and repost

Agree with Scaranja I'm afraid. This one has got potential but I'm not feelin it at the mo. It's a little too dry and the EQing is needing a lot of attention. There's too many highs and mids and not enough low mids and lows. Plus, the melodies are probably too basic and straight forward to sustain much interest. Sorry mate, it's still got potential tho.

The ghosts & snares sound a bit overcompressed. The whole thing lacks stereo. The creative part of this track is really good, the technical part needs improvement.

eazy mate, instant darkness from the start - hard stuff Bigup

bass when it drops is cool - gain nasty stuff that i'm feeling

I see that there IS variation on this track, but it appears to be too subtle (ie you're only varying one element eg an fx hit), think if you vary several parts at once eg every 8 or 16 bars vary the bass, drum AND stick an fx sample in there it would feel more prominent and keep the tune more interesting

agree with the others (yeah jus call me a broken record) EQ needs adjusting as too much on the hi end

Apart from that, I think that this track has definately got potential, get the structure sorted out a bit more, have more of a build up - that way the main drop is appreciated much much more
