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.

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,

Ok I am glad I clicked on this one. Awesome gothic groove with a sprinkling of oldstyle sheffield uk elecronica and then the D&B kicks in and smacks the industrial right out of your soul and you also managed to incorporate a dub step feel as well. super creative my friend, I am very impressed with this tune. there is so much good going on in this, hats off to you you should be very proud of this one mate! 2:15 was a nice segue. 3:14 is just pure insanity in a good way! And a nice cheeky circus ending you bastard. You do have a sense of humour ehh? Loved it faved it.

Well, thank you sir! This is some high praise. I appreciate it.

I'm not entirely familiar with the Sheffield scene, so I'm not sure which part reminds you of it. But, if there was an entire movement that my music sounds like, then I must be doing something right, huh?

I do have a sense of humor, and I'm not afraid to use it! Which got me thinking...I should put out an entirely bullshit song that's clearly a joke. Just for the fun of doing it.

Hmm, one of these times.

Thanks again, mister Steve.

Take care.

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.

ValveDriver replied 27th Aug 2020 - 4 years ago
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 !

ValveDriver replied 27th Aug 2020 - 4 years ago
Damn, dude! That could easily scar a kid for life. Sometimes those carnies freak me out now, and I'm a grown ass 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!

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 - 4 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 : About five years ago I made a dubstep track called Labyrinth Of The Absurd. This is part 2. Check out part 1 if you haven't yet. This is a Dark D-n-B. Or whatever.
I used Serum, Massive, Sylenth1. I used no presets, and no prefabricated loops. This is all original content from scratch. The only exception being the vocal samples.

Description : Ambient breaking into dnb I guess. All loops (except for 1 synth by my 7 yo daughter) so I can’t take much credit for this. Free demo loops from Loopmasters and LM loops from:

Description : 170 BPM drum 'n' cell epic. That's drum 'n' bass with lots of my layered, lead cello playing. It's both banging and chilled out, with intricate basslines and soaring, melodic cello parts. Instruments: electric cello, piano, three synth basses, two synth pads. Drums are loads of drum loops supported by a few programmed acoustic drum kits. It's fast and powerful stuff but there are also two deep grooving half tempo sections. No guitar so anything that sounds like it might be is, unsurprisingly, cello. This was fairly hard to make and required a lot of hard work. It's still far from perfect, especially the rather abrupt, unimaginative ending (I couldn't think of anything better). Have a good listen and then consider leaving me some fascinating feedback. Not much drum 'n' cell about so I like to think this is worth checking out...

Description : Hey Gang

A ambient type of DnB track, one to make you think, Second attempt at the DnB genre for this year, again apologise to Drum and Bass artist, guessing again not your normal DnB.Used flute Rhodes Piano, and a few other bits to hopefully get the feeling for the piece I wanted, along with a few break beats/bass lines and FX etc...

Please comment/review and the favour will be returned...

Peace Love Respect...

Description : Pure melodic Liquid Drum & Bass
Language: GERMAN

Currently it's raw, so sorry if it's not up the quality I'm used to producing.

I went from a chill-out track of the Faded remix to this lol.

I got my start in the industry with Liquid DnB, it's a nice thing to go back to every once in a while. Especially remixing such fantastic vocals.

Description : I have two tracks using this acapella. This is the first. I thought I could do a better job with it, so I produced a second (and I think better) track afterwards which I'll probably upload at some point. Would still appreciate any feedback on this though.

Thanks for ArthurBeatss for the acapella.
Thanks also to antoniostratiatello. I used a small section of one their loops.
