Please check out my new track 'Bucket Step (dubstep)' and post your comments here!

Dubstep track I have just laid down... I really need general feedback on the main sounds, Ive heard them so much I'm desensitized. And structure!! Yeah, and it totally needs to be filled out, but I hope its actually moving somewhere. Thanks!

I'd say its definitely getting somewhere, maybe just vary the bass notes, they're a bit monotonous, move em up n down to match the trumpet on key notes.. not all but there are some where a better match could work. Trumpet sound makes me smile, it sounds like the notes are proper being squeezed out, really like it. I'm sposed to be working now but fuck it, I'm just gonna chill.

really nice dubby vibe. i like this 1. the only thing id say is that i recognise that snare dunno if its been used alot in tracks i heard or its available in alot of sample packs or something,so u probs need to layer sum more sounds ontop or find another sample. sub bass is wikid. needs fillin out like u say but i think the main sounds are alright.

I think your mix has to much high end, especially the drums.

Not sure about the delay on the toms, doesn’t really make them sound better and as your lead has a delay on it that was a bit too much. Maybe make some velocity edits to make them sound more authentic… or create a roll or two that plays every 16 bar.

Also work on variation (the section where you changed the drums didn’t work too well transition wise) and give you bass more texture.

Your melody is not bad.

Love the dubby vibes in this. I'm pretty tired as I'm listening to this and it fits the vibe perfectly. There's a few issues with the sound quality that you might want to have a look at:

Tone down the highs in the snare, and bump up the lows a bit.

The hi hats seem to have a bit of low-end on them. It sounds weird. You might wanna EQ that out. Also, take out some of the highs.

The guitar has too many highs too.

Bass is good but I'd add some stereo panning to widen it a bit.

Are you using some kind of compression on this? It sounds a bit strange. Actually, I'm guessing that is causing a lot of the problems in the mix, such as too many highs and the lows in the hi hats.

Nice tune tho.

really like the reggae-dubby feel to this, had my head bobbing....high end seems a little too overpowering...hats are really fizzy and the synth is very high-pitched.....bass is nice and deep...track could do with a little more variation too, gets a little repititive after a while.....timmi mentioned he recognised the snare sound...think i do to...producer leaks - alchemist pack...alchemist snare 7/10?....nice track overall....needs a bit more variation, less high-end and a little more low-end, pump the kick a bit....

Lead sounds very hiphop and doesn't fit the rest of the tune too well imo. Vocal could be a tad louder in the intro.
Some sounds seem to have quite short reverbs which makes the whole thing sound a bit artificial.
Needs more variation.

ahh dub step again, seems to be alot creeping in on here now.
this one however, is pretty cool. i like the squeaky intro, and its pretty much instantly into it, which is cool. i like the lazy skanking fell, i could burn one down to this
kind of expected to here some heavy reverb on cymbals and snare for that authentic feel, but oh, there it is ! nice one!
i really like this, buzzing pulse bassline and yeh, i really like the melody line too. as for the structure yeah, a litle filling out would really help but i think its a pretty decnt effort and like the pick up at the end too
