Description : Hey everyone, my first go at producing music, its a little short and pretty simple but let me know what you think.

Dark, Ambient minimal kind of dubstep/ garage thing...

Heavily syncopated drum beats that I programmed myself, a simple bass loop from a dub sample pack, Ambient Pad that i tweaked from Albino 3 and vocal samples from Rob Meulan.

If you have time take a listen and give SoundBoy some feedback.

Hey man

Nice piece for your first track, dont mind the drums as they are, thinking they give it a different sound, which is nice, liking the effects and synths, very good work, vocals are nice and go very well with the piece, adding this one to fav's, great work, Peace and respect matey...Estefano...Have new piece up a tribute to the lost and hurt people at techno festival in Germany, hope you get to check it out, let me know what you think...Cheers....

I like it, found the drums a tad off though. Great shot for a first attempt, my first dubstep, unlike yours, was absolutely pants (take a listen if you want although it's a very different style to you). Practice makes perfect mate, I'm sure you'll be making some great stuff soon.

Sound good ideas in there. Could be mistaken for quite a complex glitch choon.

Bottom line is mate, you'll get as good as you want to get like anyone. Just got to put the time and effort in.

Some interesting ideas here - I like the rez. pads FX and beats making this have quite a cool atmosphere. Needs a bit more work on structure and mastering i.m.o. but with a bit more work you're bound to get yourself heaps of attention. Greetz, --Davey--

Thanks guys, this is all really helpful :)

I was looking for that heavily syncopated drum beat, probably went a bit overboard with it but, been listening to alot of burial lately so i think that influenced me a lot.

Definitely needs work on the structure, I knocked it up quickly and wasn't giving to much thought.

Anyway im gonna keep it at, thanks for the quick responses, more are definitely welcome.

Description : Was gonna do this some time ago, because you guys probably won't check it on my Soundcloud. No issues there.

It's a full album spread into multiple parts. 16 songs in total. All Phonk!

It took over a year to complete, so I hope your enjoy!

Part 2

Meant to release this yesterday, but then my car all of a sudden turned into a ticking time bomb to destruction. So I was crying like a little girl instead of giving you guys some wonderful joy filled music.

Description : My daughter went on vacation alone for the first time-to Bosnia.
She used an ID card that she had previously lost and reported missing; she had found it later and continued using it, unaware that it was flagged in the Interpol system.
In Bosnia, she ended up in jail.

Description : The Long Dark Tea Time....
I used a part from the track by PaperKup - The Cave. His guitars fitted perfectly in there.
The meaning of this ambient track.... just memories, good ones, bad ones... but they are memories no matter what has happened...
