Please check out my new track 'Broken Beats (revisited)' and post your comments here!!!
This track was made in 2 days, and 3 hours I took for EQing and compression.
Tried to make a tune similar to Aphrodite's King of the Beat, but I'm not that good. Also tried to enter some my stuff, especially those snare repeats/slides and the slow rhytm at the middle part of the song.
Used also some scratchin' and mixing on my Technics turntable.
Tune made in FruityLoops, with some VSTi plugins, and 3x osc.
The bass is made by cutting a sample of a bass guitar, and then compressing it, reEQing it, and rendering it in a loop which builds the bass line of the tune.
The kick is a simple, bass kick, layered with a another kick with High Frequency Boost, and low freq's cutoff, to make the kick more punchy.
The snare is a sample, EQed and with reverb on it.
The hihats don't have any reverb, but only EQ and compression.
I think it is a good tune for learning how to make a dnb track, but not so good at getting high points.
But, let me know what you think! 'Cause your oppinion is what will give me a chance to improve myself.
This track has been deleted on the producer's request

nice eq ing for the drums methinks
when you go to the first culmination, it just goes up fastens up but after that is the same thing (put something new in there after the buildup)
yes very good eq ('cept the little squeling beep, it kinda don't fit i think)
i would put a notch more Rev.
and i don't like the bass, it kinda needs more life to it (not the rithm but the sound itself.
RESPECT 4 DA scratchin', im glad youre workin on that,
oh yeah and i like it really the slow down.
yeah the bass itself doesent fit to the song.
make it deeper, lower freq. and maybe another song,
maybe take a normal kick, lower the first part of it and insert a nice little Rev.
this is purely my opinion but i think that you should try doing something of your own, not try to make it similar to others. in the process of learning how to copy something maybe you'll loose your creativity . 
concentrate on both if you can.
i too have technics turntable.... its on a picture
(ps don't switch the drums from one side to the other so fully, dampen it allitle, not the whole drum sound on the left speaker.)
this one is much better in the production perspective.

waw twisted bass line. the only thing that really is bodering me is the sound and the use ofthe snare. use more gosths and other snares for example the fills U use with the snaresound 'the ratling' is too much of the good for easy listening.
you should do more with the turntables concept s good and sounds great.
alltugh he is one of the pioneers I never like Aphrodite that much except for the song 'Dubmoods' yeah. this ones the max. ice way of working but you need more twistedness. more youre own feel. the idea above for the sub is a good idea too.
3/5
cheers

Bassline is kinda funny, but it's quite good for a jump up tune (which Aphrodite makes). I can hear his influence but his music is made better. Your track has some good idears but it's too empty and repetetive.
2/5
