Please check out my new track 'Imperial Sound Force' and post your comments here!

This is my first attempt in making a dnb song. Sadly I can't say what style it is but I was influenced by some old songs like falcon- sjimmy shake and evol intent. lol, it sounds nothing like those guys. This is a wip and I know this track needs help so bitter criticism is welcomed.

Not bad for a first try.
Nothing I can pinpoint as "wrong" except the large amount of reverb, cut it down a bit.
Tune really starts to rock near the end.

Keep trying, you won't be on top from the first atempt, but you are on your way up!

maybe try and put some pads underneath the intro
would make it sound more aliveBig Grin
like your bass, already has that typical reese soundSmile bit to much reverb maybe.
drums are nice, kick could have more boosted freqs. around 80-100 though to give it a bit more punch/bass.
mixing sounds alright to me.
for your first dnb track you've done a great jobBig Grin

needs a lil some more elements in though like a nice synth etc.

I can't help but think I am missing a main theme in this song. Some say that the snare is crap. Should I switch it. I feel like its empty.

Your selection of sounds is wicked. Needs work on the drums, and it needs some low bass. Good effort keep it up.

All sounds seem to be in a proper place. Technically speaking, there are minor adjustments you might do, but not so important to mention in relation to EQing. Generally, the mixing process (as it is one of the most important elements) is well done.

To be honest I was mostly inspired by early 2000 songs because I didnt know where to get dnb songs. So I went to a torrent and got like 200 random songs that were made at that time. But I appreciate your comments. Musically every one I talked to said the songs sucks so I am not sure if I am gonna finish it. Although it was really a sound experiment.

wicked 1st attempt,like the way it comes in some of the levels sound off, and the drums need beefing up and variation other then this nice little roller,keep working it also bring some more sounds into the track maybe subtle synth sounds. peace
