on Ska Skank by Global Ska Network by SLAPJOHNSON
Except, why is it you aren't on tour with a funky skank band?

This absolutely rocks the house in a real fun way. I feel my arse jiggling a lil.
Very nice slapster.

Jahknow, that's a very Rasta kind of name, so I guess if you dig it, it's got that upbeat reggae feel kind of right. I used to be in a Ska band, and it was great fun. If I was to take this sound on the road I would need a nine piece horn section. Now that would be cool!
Thank you for your time...

Cheers Slap...

on Hold on by Dharo10
wow very cool!!! I feel damp with a dark misty night time fog. Ooof I slipped through the alley on my way to the corner shop. Just missed a cab on my route to the show.

Sooooo pleasant! This just eeeks for a video presentation. Seems so moody and emotional.

Super good track right thar.

Cheers mate, glad you like it. I totally have visual ideas , similar to yours. The track is just one part of an intended concept piece about urban madness. Cheers again,Dhar

on UskudaRa GideRiRken (Rework) by Serkut
good instrumentation, mastering is clean etc.

But try this on this track. Kill that hip hop riddim and go to a steppah riddim or 1 drop riddim. I think the steppah riddim on 3 might make this sound way better, Right now the snare and guitar clash making them compete for space in the mix.

I like the style! keep em upfull.

Dude thems are good sounds in there.

on Blooo by Birdy
I'm digging the metal can snare sound. Bass is decently done as well. It'd sound sweet for the lfo to effect the upsweep of that bass whoooop! think boop woooble wooble.

nice.

on Smokin' Dubs by ob3yy
I've found the first song using my dubstep drum loops! :D cheers to that 1. Gotta say I like that 2nd drop bassline.

Haha! the fat ass bass just kicked in @ 3:30! sweet dude. I love hearing people use up some of these loops in a whole new creative way. Gotta say I wouldn't have been able to do that with it so.... COOL!

Yeah man! Thank you so much for your kickass loops! They really let me create the sound that I crave so much. Don't stop doin what you're doin!

on Fight or Flight by Birdy
control panel/add remove programs/ fruity loops ;)

You lemme know as soon as your done being fruity.

Nice raw sound here though bro. I bet you're missing some wonkers in that bass sine wav aren't you? Good track for an hour of grunt work.

Birdy replied Unknown
missing some wonkers....??
do you think my music would benefit from using ableton then?

on Resonate by Verge
Dude I like this! Good good hittin' DnB tune. How much of this did you sample, or was that your creation?
Verge
Verge replied Unknown
I may or may not have gotten drum samples in this song from this site, but I have so many different drum loops it's hard to keep track of them. :p

Other than that, the rest is all my creation.

Thanks for the listen!

on Frustration by Falter
yeah! I'm a bit of a prick in that I hate using sample anything anymore. I get he most enjoyment outta knowing I programmed all beats and sounds myself.

peronally - I can't get away from Massive synth and a cool lil drum machine called Drumatic. I'm gonna work on some Dnb/jungle loops too post up soon tho. ;) peas!
Falter
Falter replied Unknown
good shit brotha. been lookin into massive over the past couple days, looks pretty sick i'll have to give it a go. lemme know when the loops are up man, always good to get some new material in!

on Frustration by Falter
it's all good bruv. DnB is hard stuff, that's why it's fun!!! With the speed of the tunes running 160-170 bpm there's a ton room for playing around with drum breaks and what not.

What sorta synth you using on this stuff? or drum machine? I love jungle too, so passing on ideers and tips is just the ticket! ;)
Falter
Falter replied Unknown
haha very true man, who doesnt love a bit of a challege eh? just workin with the 3xOsc in FL for the reeces n sub. and usin whatever sample packs i can grab online at the mo. anythin good u can recommend?

jahknow 13th Feb 2009 00:06 - 16 years ago

on Frustration by Falter
Pretty nice start I must say. I'd wanna nast y it up some. The detuned soundsin the bass are ok, but it needs 1 dropped octave bass sound under it, in the 2nd drop maybe.

This sounds weird, but thinning the kick drum out so it has less sustain and higher esonance will give it more rrom in the overall mix. listen to some old school jungle breaks to hear what i mean.

Thing with DnB is creating just thr right amount of space for all the noises to fit in.

pretty nice go man...
Falter
Falter replied Unknown
wicked stuff man. i see what ur sayin with the kick. i know its all pretty damn sloppy at the mo n the sounds dont match too well, but just had to kinda feel my way thru without any guidance. i'll be dropping another stab at it on here soon man. much appreciated.
Thanks bro.
