I like the synths you used, and the melody.
But the drums aren't proper dubstep attire if you know what I mean. d:
That kick needs to be heavier, and punchy.
Instead of using actual drums use high processed snares and thick claps.
It seems all too random right now, work on your organization more.
though I rate this a 3 out of 5 I'll rate it an actual 5 anyways. (:

HumanDrumMachine responds:

It is meant to be a song to chill to, that's why I didn't use punchy hard drums. I put a lot of effort in making the drums (and all other sounds) so they'd sound like I wanted. It's impressionistic

Some pointers.
now just hear me out, I'm not hating on your song. i'm giving feedback.
I think the kick needs to be punchier, the hats and claps shouldn't be so sharp, and to tune their volume down.
You should throw in some thick snares.
I know it's only 55 seconds, but you should make it longer and add a nice bassline.
There's thousands of different basses, so I can't really tell you what to use.
Obviously it needs a drop. d:
Try some sweeps for a buildup, and a melody somewhere.
It's just a little too bland right now.
But you're on the right track! (:

Skaterolly responds:

All is gracefully accepted, thanks i will have a look into what you have said.

Yeh i woke up at 6 am and was like lets do this, well i fail at snares always have always will :P.
I have a longer version done of it but its still a w.i.p and i dont like posting fulls on here more for soundcloud :).

Half a star because I LOVE repeating wobble patterns and drums for 2 minutes.
The drums were extremely lacking for there were hardly any variations and no snares.
There was absolutely no progression, and very repetitive.
There was no variation or changes enough to keep a listener in tune with the song.
It sounded like you looped the same 8 bars for 2 minutes.
There was no melody, no atmosphere, and no interesting fluctuations whatsoever.

I bet you didn't even listen to this with an open mind, and just wanted to post hate, because I didn't enjoy your track. I'm not even going to bother refuting what you've said because clearly your an expert at garage band, that you use on your school purposed Mac.

I think the beginning was a little rough because that hat is a little sharp me. d:
But as it progressed it gradually got better. I love the synths in this, what VST do you use for that?
Haha, and it looks like my song and your song are battling for first on most popular.. >:D

durn responds:

Aye, should've started at a lower volume, may yet still! No VSTs were used, just some of the synths in Reason. And I dunno what most popular list you're lookin' at but you definitely bumped me outta top 4, ya jerk! ;) Thanks for the review, Detious.

Damn good.
A couple pointers?
I think the "Yoy" bass has to much grit to it. It sounds like it's been bitcrushed to shit. d:
I think the snare is a little to clappy, and I think it should have a punchier feel.
I'd also like to know how you made that white noise sweep. It's sidechained right?

Isn't the melody of the bassline Flux Pavillion?
And it sounds like something from Massive!
good shit.

Once again, wobbles are absolutely fantastic, but there's a void that needs to be filled back there!
Dude, if you want you could send me an unfinished project or samples and I could remix something!
Because I'm in love with those basses.

Ah! i think your wobbles and basses are amazing! But I have an issue with the organization. It seems kind of random to me. But none the less it's great!

mako94 responds:

Sweet. I give you full permission to remix this song. Please PM if you do so i can put it on youtube.

Really diggin that melody! I love that synth stab.
I do think that the bassline is a little too loud, and the kick isn't punchy enough. Give it more of an UNCE. :D

;D ;D
