first off i must say i do not like clownstep
but i do keep on diggin ur synths ; cuz u can hear u know what u do with em
yipikayaaay motherfucker : funny Big Grin

overall i can listen to this track for ur bassline is really catchy ; but it's not something i'd go spinnin at a gig ; just beeing honest Wink

haha yeah cool intro ethex... Big Grin

the drums are nice and have a fast paced feel to it i fuckin love the vocal before the drop

there seems to be a difference of opinion on what clownstep is, imo in the UK we distinguish clownstep by the arrangement of the drums and kick drums to be more precise, jus coz a track has some wobble sounds init it doesnt make it clownstep, not in the least bit imo.

the drums in this are nothin like a clowstep tune imo.

anyway its a wicked little track, the wobble sounds could be louder in places
1:24, love the sound that comes in here, maybe expand on that vocal sample here??

and i think the breaks culd be louder or more punchy...

really nice tune as i've said before i dont like 'anthem dnb' i like to hear grooves and sounds crafted out of odd sounds, thats what dnb should sound like imo..

this is an excellent example of that

good work E, nice one bruv

haha mate

i know what ya saying but there's a catch in this choon.

"love the idea man. the intro had me hooked. wikkid. they sound like phat bass sounds u left out to whither n shrivel in the sun into some warped twisted synth remnant.... i LOVE IT.

lol, this track is awesome man. feels on the edge of two random. i was just about to type that its the kinda thing i wouldn't play out, but then i thought how wikkid it wud be to catch people out with this one.

i like it a lot man. i wanna say its not dancy enough but it definately has a dancy groove.

thanks for posting this man, this track really perked me up. totally not what i was expecting. BIGups!!

i think u shud switch the kit up some more after the first drop. maybe add a break or two for the end of the 8/16's?

sorry bro, not much advice in terms of production. that speech sample is fucking quality. well done bro!"

well imo, the elements in tis track are what sould be in most dnb especially the way its crafted, there is too much dnb with boring synths that are trance-like that gives a clean digital sound to tunes,its damn hard to make your synths sound original and that have depth and oriniginality, jus check cynik's tunes as a refernce point, he knows about using synths correctly imo, its like

'ok its a different sub-genre but where were you in '97- have you heard tunes from back in the day??'

weird - no, as for somethin ppl dont hear everyday, unfortunetly i completly agree... Frown

LOOOOVIN´THIS! It has a touch of clown-step, but it´s not silly IMO.

It´s a good thing that you dare to experiment and look for an own sound. I would definately spin this.

The little break around 1:15" is cool, but you really ruin the restart IMO (the drums come in far too late).
A bit of extra variation on the drums and the mids wouldn´t hurt either. Otherwise great track. Want more of those.

Dude, I can only comment what I´ve heard, so unless you finish it soon, I can only judge the preview Tongue

All I´m saying is: I would love it if you´d change that in the final version.

Hmmmmm, not really feeling this one dude, don't feel any energy, cause of the soft drums man, where's the kick??? And the snare is really cheesy ...

It's cool what you did to the bass and all, but the rest is lame ... you made better tunes ...

Cool, I dig that kick now dude. Track sounds well done all over. Don´t like the climax-anticlimax at the end of the breakdown though, you could do so many other things with that.

What program are you on?
