I hear Ministry and even some early Nine Inch nails here in places. But overall, Its its own thing. Certainly isnt alot like it, at least not mainstream. Ill make my way through your work slowly but surely. It has definitely made an impression on me. The breakdown + drop was awesome. Love this one. - Aaron

Aaron, how ya doin'?
It' interesting that you hear Ministry and NIN. I had no intentions of giving this an industrial sound. But, now that I go back and listen to it again, I can hear it too. I guess it's inevitable that my influences are going to show up whether I mean to or not. Not so much NIN, I wasn't ever really a fan of Reznor, but Ministry...for sure. One of my all time favorites.
I'm honored that my work has had an impact on you. That's always good to hear.
While you're working your way through my work, just be ready for a wide variety of sounds. All of which tending to lean on the darker side, but a total wide spectrum of...we'll call them Genres.
Anyhow, I'm glad you're diggin' it, man. That means a lot.

Take care.
Aaron (also!)

Valve this is a great d&b track my mate who introduced me to producing is strictly d&b and would never drift away, but this has a dubstep feel too, the outro was real clever, well done bro

Thanks, man. Funny thing is, I'm a heavy maetal guy, myself. I do love DnB, though. Not a huge fan of dubstep, but I dig it well enough. I've made a few tracks of each, though. This one was kind of a half-joke tune, but then I started liking it and decided to do something with it.

I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for listening, and taking the time to comment.

Take care.

Sirefox, gracias. Me alegro que hayas disfrutado de la pista. Tengo algunos años de experiencia, pero no diría que soy un profesional. Solo hago melodías para un pasatiempo. Sin embargo, ¡lo tomo como un gran cumplido! ¡Así que gracias!
Que tengas buena y cuídate.
Gracias de nuevo,

Gah I love some dnb! Oh man that drop tho. The second half of the song is pretty sick too. It's absolutely nuts. Very nice yo. I like it.

Thanks, man.

If you dig DnB,You should check out my track "Labrynth Of The Absurd pt.II (Pain Has A Face)"

It's a nice dark little piece.

Thanks for taking the time to listen, and comment.

Aaron,

Pretty freaky stuff here bro. The bass lines in here are all Killer. The effects, transitions, breakdowns, tempo changes are very well done and the carnival bit is a perfect twisted element. Another extremely well produced and very fun track.

I got separated from my parents at a circus when I was little and luckily my mom saw me as I was wandering behind the Freakshow tent ! I could have ended up a carny or traumatized for life !

Damn, dude! That could easily scar a kid for life. Sometimes those carnies freak me out now, and I'm a grown ##### steel worker!

Thanks for listening, man. Always appreciate your input.

I'm smiling man, and when I do it's because something is just crazy good. But this, this is wicked good, so good you can't see my face, only my glistening teeth if that makes any sense lol..The title is a clever fit to the track. One of the most creative approach to dubstep, not just any dubstep, it's ValveDriverStep. Stellar production mate, you got 4 thumbs up from me ( that's including my thumb toes also lol). Thank you for sharing brother. Faved.

I can't say that I've ever received four thumb up from one person before. What an indelible first!

Maybe we should petition Mr. Looperman to add a genre to the list: ValveDriverStep. lol.

Thank you for the tri-fecta. A Listen, comment and fav. It's greatly appreciated!

Take care.

Cool, crazy track. Wish the carnival teaser in the intro was a hair longer. Great job making dubstep-esque sounds that I can listen to without destroying my ears or speakers, well mixed. I like all the changes.
ValveDriver
ValveDriver replied 21st Aug 2020 - 6 years ago
Thank you.
Orginally, there was another section before all of this that had more Barrel Organ in it. It was very carnival-like, but it didn't really fit with where I ended up going, and it would have made the whole thing too long. Typically, I'm alright with long songs, but when it's this fast paced and aggressive, even with the breakdown, it still becomes more of an aural assault.

Thanks for taking the time to listen and to comment. Much appreciated.

Description : A dark, melodic trap instrumental with a hypnotic bounce and a smooth, atmospheric feel. The production blends haunting melodies, deep 808s, crisp drums, and subtle textures that give the beat a cinematic edge. At **148 BPM**, it moves with a fast but controlled energy, leaving plenty of room for confident flows, catchy hooks, and melodic vocals.

Perfect for artists looking for a **dark trap, melodic rap, street rap, or moody R&B-inspired sound** with a modern feel.

Description : Hi everyone, I'm presenting you my new beat, where I tried to capture the raw emotions of recent events in my personal life. It's a unique fusion of a dark trap vibe, dirty analog textures, and solid boom-bap drum patterns, topped with a few distinct samples. One of them is a vintage movie quote from 'Psycho' (1960), and the other is a haunting female vocal loop from Looperman, which serves as the main chorus. Hope you feel the vibe.
TONE: F#M
TEMPO: 100 BPM

Description : Nothing to put here. I will let the music speak itself, in the way I always do.
When words can't be spoken, and mean nothing, music speaks louder then a clap of thunder.
Anyway, I have my choir concert on Tuesday! And I found out my parents will not attend because they think I don't deserve their attendance. So I'm gonna make sure they regret that, YKWIM :). Watch me get lettered to Concert Choir, they'll hate MY GUTS if I do. lol. SCOREBOARD!
