Hey mate, sounds like ya might wanna work on adjusting the levels in this because it sounds like some of the stuff is on the verge of clipping (mainly on the low end, which is easy on Magix). Sounds like either the bass and/or the kick drum is comin on too strong.
Very apt name though. I can see people stompin it out doin the Melbourne Shuffle to this. Though given its time is it safe to guess that it isn't finished yet? It'd be kinda nice to see how this would progress out. Nice start mate. Later on!

Don't ya just love it when little experiments turn into full blown projects and songs? I think the only thing that's better is when accidents give way to masterful creation.
Anyways, I think my favorite part of this were all the bass sequences going on here. They def had my head bobbin. And I also liked when ya had that xylophone sounding thing come in to match 'em. Cool stuff here. Thanks for sharing mate. Later on!

Okies mate, the lil transition part with the scream sounds like it needs to be worked on a bit (especially the scream itself, it came out a little loud through my head phones). Yeah, this sounds like to different songs thrown into one. And though I find the idea of it interesting I'm thinking that they two different synth sequences clash. Maybe if ya worked on layering them together a bit better. Possibly adding some prolonged fades in and out. Where they'd play together more. And on second thought, I'm gonna suggest that ya just nix the scream altogether. And maybe work on having the end fade out or end suddenly with a drum build up to a big cymbal crash. Thanks for sharing though. Later on!

on mr strong is back in town by emitek

The only part I didn't much care for was the "I just wanna thank you" vocal sample ya had on here. Other than that it was pretty bangin. I especially enjoyed the drums at the beginning and am thinkin that if ya wanted you could very easily make this into a 'Bass-centric' Drum&Bass mix. Like either Miami Bass or Booty Bass (without the hiphop vocals thrown in). Think like a mix between Bass Meckanik and Techmaster PEB (maybe with a sprinkling of Benny Benassi to keep the some of the current synth). Okies, nuff outta me. Thanks for sharing mate. Later on!

Before I comment on the song I'm gonna say that ya might have more luck with getting feedback if your description was a bit better.

I think my favorite part of this song was that one synth sequence ya had that sounded like an alarm. And the drums were absolutely superb. Though ya might wanna ease into that one synth sequence that starts at around 2:30 I'm thinkin (it struck me as being a lil too sudden). Other than that this was pretty solid. Thanks for sharing. Later on!

on Bottoms Of A Willow Tree by DGUMO

Some of the effects on this reminded me of the breathing sound Kraftwerk used in the song Tour de France. And in some ways this makes me think that it's the beat side of Ambient (like if one were to swap synths for drums). And that said, I think this track would be a whole lot cooler if ya threw in some forrest sounds (animal calls, wood creeking, and such). To give it more natural flavor or something. Cool stuff mate. Later on!

Thanx for your review on this song. I always appreciate input from other people. I was shooting for a truly dry sound on this song. Nothing that really "sticks out" so to speak. Kind of like a back wooded children's lullaby.

Excellent usage of the reverse soundin breaks in this mate. I think that was prolly my favorite part of the song. Along with the tribal chant vocal sample and that nutty bass/synth ya had near the end (in fact, they sorta reminded me of some bass loops I recently added). Two things bum me out about this. The first is that it isn't avail for download (sad face) and the other is that one vocal sample that sounded like it came from a movie (with site rules and all that). Course, I'm thinkin you could still have a pretty bangin track without that sample. Later on!

on Come Down Selector by MiracleManTracks

I thought the vocals were pretty cool, save for the high pitched 'oy' one. Hmm, maybe if ya had it say 'hey' instead it might pair with the lower pitched 'oy' better. I dunno, just random thoughts here. And the drums were fabulous. Nicely done there. I'm thinkin this track would be killer if ya added some bass to go with the drums. Something like a long drawn out growl mixed with the periodic throbbing wub-wub ones, ya know. Cool stuff mate. Later on!

Pretty dirty stuff right here. I was really diggin the classic vocal samples ya used on here (the funky laugh one). And the dark knock of the one bass sequence ya had. I also enjoyed how it had slight dub undertones in it. It's just a shame that this isn't avail for download (sad face). Oh well, I can still fav it. Thanks for sharing mate. Later on!

Hey mate, ya might wanna watch yer levels because some of this sounded like it was on the verge of clipping. So if ya go to mess with this again I'd recommend dropping down the volume on some of the channels.
Besides that I thought that this was a pretty sweet mix. I think my favorite part of the song (besides the vocal sample) was the sitar-like synth ya used on here. Cool stuff, just work on trying to polish it up a bit with the mastering. Later on!

on True Sin Feat. EVRiM by DjSomnium

Okies, the part starting @ around 0:57 and lasting to 1:16 (give or take) was the only part of the song that I didn't much care for. I dig the concept, but am thinkin that ya might wanna throw on some effects to that part. Something to give it an extra sense of dimension, because at the mo' it kinda reminds me of a skipping record.
That said, I really loved what ya did to her vox too and for some odd reason it reminded me a little bit of Britney Spears (the way she sounds on her perfume commercials). And the groove of this is def funky fresh. The stuff ya used with the bass was boss. Though given it's length is it safe to assume that it isn't finisheed yet? Keep bangin it out mate. Later on!

on Her Silver Lining by Repeto
Play 2 now...
Naw, the way ya mixed it I didn't think it was overly repetitive. The part near the end could stand a bit of variation perhaps, but given it's length is it safe to guess that it isn't finished?
Let's see, hmm, I'm thinkin that maybe you could incorporate the intro vocal sample some more on here (like to come up after a break or something). You could even play around with the sample itself, making it do something like- "1... 1,2... 1,2,3...3,4" and stuff like that. Use it in conjunction with added elements in the song too (like the introduction to a new layer of synths and stuff). Lemme know if that helped ya any. Later on!

on Fallen star by Beaupain

I really dug the groove of this, but I'm kinda thinkin that ya needta throw in some more variation on this (or do it sooner) coz it kinda sounded repetitive in parts. Though, like I said, I really dig the groove of this and am thinkin that this is some high quality House music (not too sure I'd call it electro). And in that light I could see someone goin crazy on remixing this incorporating it into a session. Maybe throwing in some breathy female to sing R&B along side it. Thanks for sharing. Later on!

on Frogmarch by Kazm

The beat on this kinda reminds me of the way an old ceiling fan sounds when it's set on high and the spin causes it to vibrate a little. Something I've heard many a summer night while trying to fall asleep. And the piano sequence ya had on here was choice. Had me thinkin of huge grandfather clocks for some odd reason.
Anyways, so this is 'dubstep' huh? Not what I was expecting (when compared to dub), but not bad either. Kinda like the chill side of jungle? Anyways, thanks for sharing. Later on!

Kazm replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Hey man, thanks for the review.

Dubstep is such a varied genre. If you wanna hear the more Dub side of it, check out something like Naked by Shackleton. It's not as electronic.

Cheers again for the review man, your words mean a lot!

Peace.
Kii.

Nice usage of the vocals mate. The effects ya placed on 'em give this a strange etheral vibe. And the beat on this kinda makes me feel like it's trippy, chill time music. The stuff ya play when yer sittin up late at night pullin an all-nighter study session or something. Interesting grooves mate. Later on!

on Carlito's first dubstep by carlito
Play 2 now...
Yeah, I'm kinda just getting into this genre too mate. From what I've heard so far yer pretty dead on with your stuff here. The only thing I can recommend is maybe making it a little longer (by about a minute) and maybe work on ironing out yer levels to make 'em come out playin smoother. Other than that this is a cool start ya got here. Later on!

(update)
Haha, I meant that like 'bulls eye' dead on. And I'm more into the House, Electro, Techno side here. Decided it was time for me to venture out a bit more. Keep groovin what you do mate. Later on!

carlito replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
i'm pretty dead on my stuff here lol. yeah i believe so too. i just find this genre so unique and its still underground here in london. You know i usually do reggaeton so dubstep was a big change. i will try my best next time i try to do dubstep taking your opinions to account.

on The Dictator by Mescalanious
Oh yeah, I completely agree that Bush was a horrible leader. It's nice to hear things like this beacause it astounds me how man wasn't impeached (and stands now, yet to be investigated for anything). On that note, absolutely superb selection and usage of vocal samples on this mate.
Though I would've liked to hear more music production on this. Thanks for sharing mate. Later on!

Nice usage of the old radio receiver on this. I dunno why, but I couldn't make out the Saddam samples in this. Oh well, this was a pretty interesting track, though I dunno if I'd call it Dub. Sounds a bit like old Techno mixed with a buncha vocal samples. Eh, it's no biggie, this was a pretty bangin song. Thanks for sharing mate. Later on!

on unmade bed by apnea
I agree with Splish- nearly 200 plays and only 1 (well, 2 now) reviews. What gives people? Oh well, what can we do, ay?

Maybe it's the overall groove of this song. It feels more like Ambient or Chillout than it does Dub. I mean, sure, there are Dub undertones to it I just think it's vibe is too laid back. Though that isn't a bad thing really. I think it just caters to a different crowd is all. Oh well, interesting mix though. Later on!

I might be wrong here, given that I've just started to pick up on the genre, but this doesn't feel like Dub to me. I think it's the beat the throws it off for me. Though don't get me wrong, this is a pretty movin piece. Yet, given it's short length and sudden end is it safe to guess that it isn't finished? Nice start, keep workin at it mate!

Haha, I'm lovin the title. And in a way it kinda reminds me of that one scene near the end of the movie Dazed and Confused (at the party near lookout tower or whatever it was called).
Anyways, I dig the spaced out groove of this and in a way it also reminds me of the way the dryer sounds when a button or somethin is facing out and slamming against the walls inside (with the beat). Thanks for sharing. Later on!

Haha, 'wadada' is whatcha gotta do in a situation like this. It's a dance kinda like a mix between the Twist and the Melbourne Shuffle (or somethin, shrugs).
Now as for the song, man, some of those beats (or should I say, hits) sounded super familiar. Just can't put my finger on where I've heard 'em before though. And I like the lil reggae-esques ya had in this here and there. Cool mix mate. Later on!
