Ok my men interesting idea Pleased Now aboy th freq. about the snare Frown It`s too punchy so if you could reduce the velocity or ... And the track itself is somehow dull and it gets a little borring Frown Some more variations would probably help Tongue The basseline is missing or at least I couldn`t hear it... But i loved the intro and the beat. The beat is very nice and I really liked it Bigup Exelent work with the sawtooth also Big Grin In general the idea is quite good so keep it up Bigup Something tells me that you are creating awesome tracks Big Grin oh yeah.. Exelent work with the bassdrums in the beat very original Pleased

I like this sound in the beggining, tune is cool, the hihats work well: sounds promissing

I dont like the tune nor the instrument that comes in 00:45 I would kick it out. ouch! snare doesnt have punch ,so you compensated with the loudness of it, if I am not mistaken?

this all gets into a mess! with no basskick, hte idea is there, but somehow it seems you need some xperience in sequencing department as for the slowdowns and speedups, not quite feeling that

the tunes interfere all the time with eachother theres simply too much of them at the same time- not much dnb but maybe some other style.

keep tryin

Bigup

Hey cheerz for downloadin guys I apprieciate your points fully. Im dont agree that its not DnB tho.
Yeh the snare is loud and my sound system isn't to great at the mo.
Its kinda experimental, producing somthing really original is hard work. Im gunna change alot of things with this track, the bassline is kinda weak, im guna pump it up.

Cynik - The slow down, thats goin for sure. The snare is far to loud needs crunchin and volume lowering. Thanks for your comments man!

Paki - Thanks man, very positive and your ideas are right. Things are changin!

Please d/l this tune everyone, I need critisism and apprieciate everyones comments individually.

Bassline sound too synthesised. Please try a more natural sound...

Drop: snare is too loud and too much stereo spreaded. Put it a bit more in the center. And the kick... what kick?

Lacking bass and sub. Is there any?

Hats are crisp, but could use some lower frequencies too. Also, they've got an annoying pop.

Melodies aren't very intresting, making the track quite boring.

I couldn't agree with u guys more.
My logic fucked up so I gotta start again, I think thats probably a good thing tho.
I wanna say thanks again for listenin to it, I know it's only experimental, next upload should be sweeter.
By the way, does anyone here use logic?, Ive only jus started on it, love the software, needs time tho!

starts nice with a kinda experimental vibe to it. i like the idea you're going for but you haven't quite pulled it off this time. Do some more work on it, add fx, get your frequencies & levels sorted (lower the snare - its so overpowering), add more to it & take out that bit that comes in at 0.45 coz that really doesn't seem to fit imo. Then repost it & i reckon it will go down a lot better.

The track does have potential but it needs more work.


what version of logic are you using? I use it too & am learning new stuff about it all the time. It can be mad complicated at times though! Tongue

Hey thanks to Surya and Crushfuck, nice one for takin the time to download a tune that really is no weher near completing.
Sadly I gotta start from scratch again (you guys prob thinking thats a very gud thing, heh)

Crushfuck - Im using Logic 7 Express, cant afford Logic pro. Its runnin on my Powerbook G4 (I mainly use it for graphics + Illustration but tunes are a sort of sub hobby im not very good at)
Yeah tho I agree its fuckin hektic, but the possibilities are endless even without a desk.

I think im guna stop lengthening out this thread but il keep checkin it, please still download. Im on a new project now, see it soon.

you need a lfo to mess with the lead synths wavelength(PWM)
the kick is too deep, it shoudl usually be around 70-100 and it's deeper than the bassline i think... which isn't a dnb thing, more like dance. but even than it's still pretty deep.

same as above....

the snares are way too loud. and the hi hats could come back a bit too.....

if you add sum sub it would be an okay tune. I like the fact that it sounds like an old videogame but it is too boring. take your idea and make it about 10x more interesting. That is all.
