Wish Of Death - JaNgLz

Nice production. Real Thick.I like the keys in the intro a lot. The drum samples are spot on, very tight compression too. The bass kind of teases you by not coming in for a long time. I was thinking in my head "Where's the bass" and then it comes... ha ha! I like the wobble it sounds kind of industrial. What Programs do you use? The only things I could say I would like to hear more of are 1)play with the filter modulator rate and filter range a little more. and 2) The index of the synth on the bass sound can be put to very good use. I use reason to create my bass patches, so I do not know what other synth programs would call it. but it makes a pitch shift in the synth as a layer, i guess... I dont really knwo how to describe its effect, but it makes for great dubstep bass when automated in blocks. Other than that this track is sweet. The production is thick and robust, and the melody is very nice. Great job, Janglz!

DnB is my first love as well. kudos`

I use maelstrom to create basses,.... I know that is backwards but hear me out...First of all, its just easier to use once you get to know the machine. I like how easy it is to apply new layers on the fly.

Now on the maelstrom there is a slider in both synth oscillators labeled index. if you automate that slider on your mid range oscillator(or the one that wobbles, if you do it like I do where there is one synth wobbling and another synth designated to super sub freqs). I like to try to automate the index slider in 1/4 or 1/2 blocks, if you will. This gives each phrase of the bass line a little different character, which makes the overall arrangement more progressive.

You can also make it work with wobble effect in modulator A, just make sure you automate the rate on both modulators the same...if that makes sense.

I have been using reason since it came out and I would strongly suggest ditching the subtractor and learning the Maelstrom, I think it is far superior to the subtractor.

And I have played with Thor enough to get a decent wobble, but man that machine is confusing and it kind of breaks me down just looking at it, So I usually talk myself out of getting to know that one. With that being said...It is def the most customizable synth in the suite.

But, just like old jeans, I just cant quit the Maelstrom, We've had too many good times! ha ha.

Anyway, I hope this helps. I cant wait to hear more of your stuff!
