I'm interested, but I've got someone on this song already, so I'll check with the guy I'm collabing with to see if he minds if we make it a 3 way collab, and if he doesn't mind, then sure :D
A couple of things, the bass could do with a bit more... erm...bass lol you could try using a sub bass maybe to fatten it up a little.
And correct me if I'm wrong, but can I hear your kick drum in stereo? Or have you used reverb? I personally wouldn't use either on a kick drum, but that's just me though :)
not experienced huh? lol,... well your certainly on the right track! Nothing to say in the way of criticism. I can hear a pop or two in places but nothing major... I'd stick the bpm up to 170 personally, but that's just me :)
that's an awesome vocal sample you're using, where did u get it?
Yeah. I honestly started out at 170 ( cuz the very few DNB tracks I've made have been on the neurofunk side so I like it around 165-170 but with the samples it just sounded a bit fast for me. The sample by the way is "bright lights" by japan Sue.
yeah this is sweet :) love that bass line. Was that a sample that I hear played throughout or was it a funky old school tape effect plug-in over the strings and bells??
It's definitely different lol... I guess I didn't really know what to expect - and I'm not sure what to think either lol
But being honest, I *don't* really feel this type of melody belongs on a house track - that's not to say this project doesn't have merit, I agree with spiv - this is a fun track and it made me perceive a sort of,... distorted, alternative reality! :)
I hear ya mate. I'm kinda iffy on the whole "house" thing too, but was thinkin that it did give this a different vibe (sort of in the Gigi D'Agostino way). Maybe if this had lyrics like his stuff did it'd be better (match closer). Dunno? Anyways, thanks for the input. Lates!
haha no i know perfectly well what moombahcore is- anything moombah is hot out here AND I LOVE IT AND AM SOOO DOWN TO CREATE IT but ya think the same bpm - no jungle tranquility. moombahcore i just moombahton times dubstep sounds. remove moombahton and insert whatever you consider my song to be- with the same dirty sound as dubstep.quite literally sirens and machine gun wobbles- harder boom and thicker bass just ignore the bpm as moombahcore does. -u get any of my emails?
Yea i know right, its been a while!! Good 2 hear from u again and thanks alot for the review but yea its still needs a lil bit of work on it like i said but thanks again :)
I absolutely adore this kind of DnB - I'm guessing you do too otherwise your track wouldn't of ended up like this lol. The best example artist I can think of that does a similar style is LTJ Bukem.... absolutely immense talent. lived a few streets away from me actually ;)
I would of liked to see a snappier kick drum in a more sort of consistent pattern and there seems to be a bit of an overlap in 1 or 2 places with the hats but aside from that this is friggin awesome :) fav'd
Thanx Toonz. Kind review to say the least and to be compared with someone like LTJ B is praise indeed. This isn't a genre I would normally attempt so please forgive me the odd blip lol. I will take your advice and at some stage attempt a remix and try to use your suggestions. Thanx for listening & reviewing. So much appreciated from someone like your-self that makes such good sounds. Respect my friend
whoa........ There really is never a dull moment in this at all. I'm definitely up there with RotenBeats saying best house track I've heard on this site :) this is very pro...
I thought I'd drop by to see if I can learn anything for the track I'm working on and I can see there's oodles that I haven't been doing that I should definitely be *trying* to emulate.
LOL Toonz I am not worthy ! ! ! Thank you my friend for such a fantastic review and such high praise. As for the best that is for others to say but thanx anyway for such positive vibes. Just to know people have listened and reviewed is enough for me but to recieve something so glowing from someone like your-self whose music I enjoy, listen to and admire is fekin will chuffing to a lil ole dude such as me. Thanx again mate, you have made my day
I wasn't sure what to expect to begin with because I always think of this track http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTzpqnBFDas which is just a classic - but you pulled it off in a cheesy kinda way! :D
I like what you've done with the synths, the arrangement is really cool, nice and clean etc...
For some reason this track reminds me of simcity,............. lol
I can definitely hear this track in that game :) I'm not sure I would call it house though,... I'd probably say electronic personally, based on it's arrangement and instruments used.
That's funny Toonz I'm not a gamer and never played SimCity but I'll ask my daughter lol she'll give it to me straight, brutal kids. I had in mind to label Electronic not being a housenoscenti, really value your review man
There's far too much to producing to give 1 or 2 tips that would make a major difference tbh. But I *do* say this to anyone that does ask...
Listen. I mean *really* listen to other people's work. Take a note of the chord progressions, every time a new instrument or sample is introduced. How that instrument interacts with the rest of the song etc etc. Listen,.... and try to 'copy' what they do.
Watch lots of tutorials for your DAW if you have the patience. Read articles, download books.
I've been doing this for 8 years now, but most of my progress has been made only in the last year because I tried to learn everything the hard way. I got a lot better because I studied.
That's probably the best advice anyone can give you :)
Well, if you're looking to get a producer to turn these vox into dubstep you'll probably find you'll need to completely re-record them. I clocked the Bpm of this @ 108... dubstep's usually at 140bpm.
As to the vocals themselves, not bad :) not bad at all... just a suggestion, why not post some acapella's? You'll get all kinds of producers hitting your stuff up with all kinds of weird and wonderful results :)
ya the bpm is off but i was referring to all the other characteristics of dirty dubstep that aren't in other subgenres- think datsik sounds slowed down- framing odds n ends. thought i'd be able to find someone who could do that here but everyone wants to start from scratch and just use my vocals :( - i'll post some acappella's soon. thanks!
This is going to be a similar review to the last one.
MORE!
Again, I don't hear any bass. No track of this genre is complete without a bass line. Even a simple bass line goes a long way to making a track complete.
Again the melody is really nice, but needs more variation. You won't find any professional tracks that rely solely on one melody played throughout the track.
Again, a lot of potential - but not finished yet lol
thank you! i know i pretty much just started so i need to get the feel of how to change it but not make it feel like a different song comment back with any tips or ideas
You've got some really nice ideas here :) the potential is definitely there - I wouldn't call this finished though... You need to do more
As nice as that arp melody is, there's too much of it. Try adding some variation to the loop so it doesn't become tiresome to the ears, chop it up a little or something. And maybe add another motif too so there's more variation.
This track needs more bass. Particularly when the track drops. I don't think I hear any bass besides during the build up's... (I also think I hear a note or two that clashes with the pad)
I see you're new to the game of producing so nothing's going to be perfect yet. You may want to read some article's/watch some tutorials about Equalizers (EQ). Learning how to do mix down properly is a good skill to have and really bring your tracks to life...
Like I say, this has a lot of potential to be a great track, but it's not finished yet, so keep at it ;)

I'm not the best when it comes to DnB (at all) and I've only ever made one track in this genre but I'd be willing to give it a try :)
I have a DnB track here which is a couple of years old now and I've learned a lot since then: https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/90912

Sorry I didn't check it out sooner I don't really pay attention the loops after I upload 'em.
Loving the drop, the beats are awesome, some really good variations on the bee line...the grimey string aint bad I guess. lol
woulda thought this woulda got more DL's and reviews than it has done so far. This is good stuff mate!

Really cool track.... nasty.
The real let down though is the mix,.... it's soooo muddy. It sounds like I'm listening to it with pillows over my phones.

108bpm is perfect for that then :)
if I knew anything about producing dirty dubstep I'd be happy to help... as it is, i don't lol
on Overdrive by Paradoxal
The melodies are killer and it's nice to see something that doesn't just loop over and over (kind of how my work does lol)
I don't know what 'pro' industrial sounds like - but if it isn't up to this standard I'll be disappointed. Absolutely amazing.

It's been a while, so I thought I'd stop by and see how your music's progressing and I'm liking what I'm hearing!
Some really nice melodies going on here and I can definitely feel the jungle vibe you got going on :)
Good track structure and use of percussion like always,... it clean sounding too which is a plus...
Still lacking in bass though,... and a couple of extra synths layers would have really pushed up this production. But all in all good job my friend :)
