Agree with DjD, very good for a 13 year old. Accapella fits the beat nicely too, just need to beef up the drums a bit. Maybe try layering some of the hits with other samples, like 2 or 3 kicks layered over each other, same with the snare, but use all different samples. Doesn't work if you put copies of the same samples over each other. Also put a limiter on your output/master track. Then it won't distort when you layer your drums up, most dance producers have a limiter on there master track as standard.

Keep it up fam.

ParteeDJ replied Unknown

Yeah I agree that it needed a little bit more variety and better percussion samples than the default FL Studio samples. I also wasn't really good at equalization at the time, so the kick wasn't as powerful (But I've improved with EQ'ing since then) I also removed a default limiter from the master track because the bass was, I guess "Choking" the other sounds out. Thanks for the review and i'll take the advice that you have given me. =-)

on Pendulum by KnownAsn1

cool track man, like the pitch bent synth that comes in that's a nice touch. It's good to test yourself and make a "piece" rather than a beat sometimes. Nice stuff.

I take it your a fan of out school Outkast stuff? Reminds me of some really old school O.K stuff. No track in particular, but it's got that vibe. Big beat.

Nice track fam, if it were mine I'd probably replace the guitar sound with something else. It's got some good ideas in there tho man, keep them coming.

on RAINBOW MUNCHER - MIX ON HEADPHONES by aktolman

Big track man, synth work is legit. Filthy in the best possible way. I've only tried a track like this once myself, and I know how difficult it is, but you got it down nicely. Keep them coming man. Sounds like you like your oldschool hardcore. Nice.

aktolman replied Unknown

cheers for the review mate!

Nice track, well produced man. Keep them coming. Could write to this one easy.

vrano replied Unknown

thank you for your critics. Its a new experience for me to make music with samples. In ancient times, in the eightees, I played bass and guitar in in punk and psychedelic hardcore local bands in munich, but now I get older, and I am to lazy to organize a band. Its easier to make it with the PC.
Have a good time

on When the Sun Goes Down by LsDUB

Sick track man, could you get me in touch with the producer? I'd be up for spitting to that track too, well selected and realised. Big tings.

Is that you on the hook too? Or is that the guy that made the beat? NIce track and bars either way fam.

LsDUB replied Unknown

Thanks alot. The Producer is Pale Soul of Headlock Muzak. He's currently working on my album and that track might or might not be on it. The beat is exclusively mine though so you'll need to purchase a different one from him, but thank you for the comment. Good Looks.

Nice track man, very uplifting and lively with some good synth work in there. Fresh.

BluntsAndBeats replied Unknown

thanks for takin time to check it out. i kept tryin to add some kind of scratching in there but they never sounded that great. all I could get was like a reverse effect on my drums(kinda sounds close to scratchin) towards the end. back to more tutorials! hm yeah that was kind of a random tangent but just thought of some of your tracks! haha anyways thanks again et!

on The Soul by Subtil

Cool track man, how much of it is loops from here? Regardless, they're well selected and tastefully put together. I make and know hip hop and this is a good beat. Just needs some EQ on the samples in the background, they sound a little flat at times. Keep them coming man, check me out sometime.

Subtil replied Unknown

yeh in the melo are some parts that needs to be equalized well,thankÃ‚Â´s for the tip and thankÃ‚Â´s for support to =) can you send me your email to make some connection ? peace

on Falling Behind by dMaybeatz

Like it man, drums and piano sound sick. Drums are a bit special, that kick is nice. Boom!

on Gear Shift by Beatkutz

Interesting track fam, maybe double up the kick and get a fat sounding snare or clap in there too. Bit of percussion with a delay could be nice too. Like it man, keep them coming.

EDIT: Not sure mate, you should try all sorts of different ones and see what sound the best. As for doubling the drums, that works on most hip hop and dance tracks, pretty much always sounds better, but you have to mix one of the two snares or kicks lower than the other. I take it you're already putting a limiter on your master channel too? Pretty much all dance producers do. Good luck mate.

Beatkutz replied Unknown

thank you for listening ET. Always great to hear your input :) What kind of percussion were you thinking of? I will, buying a Yamaha KX8 88-key now! Hoping that will help me take my beats to the next level. Learn some basic music theory as well, there's so incredibly much to learn! :D

Where did you get the drum sample man? That's a phat DnB break, would you send me that?

Guitars are nice in this too, sounds good when it all gets going. Looking forward to a finished vocaled version. Keep them coming man.

the drum samp is actually from this site which is why I uploaded it as a sort of thank you if you search for drumloops D&B 170 bpm you'll find it

on Jigglebutt by Karnivll

Naughty. Cool track man, need to work on the EQ and compression etc a little, all the elements are a little flat right now. Need to bring the drums out a little, crisp and beef them up a bit with some EQ. Maybe whack a big distortion on the bass too, just something to make it stand out. Got some good elements in there man, keep them coming.

Karnivll replied Unknown

Aight, I'll give it a whirl. I played it VLC and it wasn't flat there (eq was off). But yeah I'll play around with it a lil more. Thanks for listening and the advice.
