Please check out my new track 'Armageddon' and post your comments here!
New track ive just finished, feeling good about it since i feel that i have created my own style here, was just wondering what the dotbe community think of it. SAFE
Track is great. I like the style. I wouldn't necessarily say it's a new style but the production is great. Change in sounds are great. Tension is good. Overall I think it's a wonderful piece of work. I would for sure bump this on my way to work.
Drums sound distorted and muddy, kick has no impact.
Reese is to grindy. Track is pretty repetitive because there's always this main reese and just very few other elements.
Track has potential though.
__ Check my soundcloud (exclusive tracks on there)
Nice vibes - this sure has got potential like BD said. Breaks roll quite nicely,
but kicks and snares need to be louder and the snare could be 'bigger' and punchier.
The drop doesnt have much impact - maybe introduce a new lead when it drops?
Also it does get a bit repetative.. You have the same variations looping all the time.
Second drop - now I'm really hoping to hear a new lead or pad or anything..
ez m8e.
im gona be a tad boring and agree with the others on the beat,
it lacks punch, the lil hi-pass amen is sitting a bit far back and maybe a lil to much hi-pass on it, but the programming on the beat is nice m8.
get a hi end synth in there too bro something to cut through all the dirt.
i quite like the grimey reece tho,i like that spooky pad as well,
a shrill string would work well here too.
just need to bring that amen forward a tad, more omhp to the kicks n snare.
as the guys said potential m8.
look forward to the update m8.

Really nasty style with some old skool vibes. Funky shit. The Dah Dah duhhhhh sound could use more LFO on and it WAY more movement. Really nice hi hat, I know how hard it is to get a hi hat that sits well in the mix. Cool shit tho man. Yeah only thing that I recommend is to change that one sound.
beat sounds sligtly muffled, what kinda processing did u use on it? the whole track lacks clarity i'd focus on tryin to define and separate each element properly so everything has its place in the mix
that said the tune itself has a lot of potential, some nice rhythms going on with the bass and drums, nice stuff
Thanks for the feedback guys, means a lot to me and a lot of good advice here. Im going to leave this track as it is for now as ive already distributed it around the radio stations, dont want two different versions flying around. I WILL however take all of these point into consideration on my next production.
Once again thanks for the feedback and good advice

DJ Friendly, startin with a beat straight away. Although was expectin it to kik in heavier on the kik and snare, theres something lackin in that kik, not much low end depth. Snare needs to be louder and a bit snappier. The track seems a bit restricted by the samples, which are programmed well, but just not enuff layers to arrange to the tracks full potential. Damn good effort tho. Arrangement is a bit predictable.
