I've been away for a while. A lot happened and I didn't have much time left for producing, so neither to give a lot of reviews. sorry for that but I'll do some reviews a soon as possible. This is a preview. I made the drums in FL, mixed them down in cubase, reimported them in fruity loops' slicex, layered them again, and so on and so on... . The synth are a combination of massive and z3ta+. The whole song is composed in FL and as soon as the song is ready, i'll mix it down in cubase. Let me know what you think of it. Tried to make some heavy neurofunk-style drum 'n bass with this one.

There isn't enough depth to it. The bass and kick seem very thin and much too compressed. The scratchy sounds are panned too wide too and they don't gel well. It sounds like they are doing their own thing. The bassline itself tho is fucking wicked and the beat programming is top notch. Seriously good, this is my kind of heavy dnb. I just wish the bass and depth was there! Cos this tune could be massive. If you are interested, I would be willing to have a bash at tweaking the sounds in FL and pumping some more beef into it. I use FL7 btw. Hit me up with a PM if you're up for it. __ MySpace | Soundcloud | Drumnbass.be | Facebook "It is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring."

Not much to comment about this tune, it is simply good. __ Check my soundcloud (exclusive tracks on there) 03-10-2008 21:33 cynik Cp6uja Registration Date: 15-03-2005 Posts: 5,646 Helpfulness rating:  drums would benefit of a more resonant snare layer, something metallic imo, as it is sounds cool, it just needs something to make it punch more otherwise very cool sounds throughout, bassline rocks! I can hear these are early stages since not a lot of change happens and imo it should altogether its got mad potential, keep working it for sure! __ https://soundcloud.com/tsai-vidro-voves 05-10-2008 13:31 Astrocyte Chef 'n' Bass Registration Date: 24-09-2008 Posts: 738 Helpfulness rating:  I'd agree with cynik on the snares, just a little more 'oomph' and it'd be blinding!
