Sick Drum and Bass

Author Comments

This is a Drum and Bass project which I made in a slightly higher tempo than I usually play around with. This uses a bunch of NDA drum samples, which I cut up and processed, this has decent flow and is a good all round D&B tune. Kind of reminds me of my days listening to the Prodigy and Chase and Status. P,S: just added a Dub section as a mid sixteen to break the song up a bit.

This was made with Massive and Vanguard, in Cubase 5

Maxx I believe here we have what is called a proverbial troll, most probably also a person which doesn't have a clue how to make music either, I checked his profile and his music was rather perfetic, so I wouldn't be worried at all about anything he says, if he is reading this, mate go back under your bridge you came from, suck your thumb and don't disturb anyone else as you sir are just rude, not a nice person and your music is complete and utter dogs balls! (a load of bollocks, if you have problems reading that).

Stu or Maxxpump to you part owns a multi million pound studio and is a very well known musician in Brighton. We regularly work with keith wilson and norman cook (if you don't know who that is look him up, if you still don't know him you haven't a clue about EDM music and you should definitely go back to hide under your rock!)

But on a other note, I found this slightly repetitive, but you have perfectly linked multiple drum and bass styles together (it seems with ease). I hope we can make a remix of this and use it on our next live set, stuart as this really rocks, but needs a bit of work here and there. I will say the dub thing is a bit crap, but I know your not good at that anyway...but do keep on trying anyway!

Yes I realise now I've been trolled, but this guy's comment was definitely overly harsh and I think he's a complete a**hole as he puts it...but at the same time I think your comment is a bit harsh to him also as if you look at how may views I got on the portal, this song really did badly, which was surprising to me as I thought it was a good song! But anyway as I've said before I can do much better and will do much better next time around. Hope you are well and carry on doing your studio stuff you late father would love you for it. My branch of Lomax studios is still doing really well (million pound studio, not quite, bt that AMS Neve and Helios desk was pretty pricey as equipment goes, but do remember your dad funded the whole lot in the studio is as good as the operators, Joey and michael keep the studio aliev and no we haven't seen norman cook for a few years, but at least he recorded a few times here which rocks! Doesn't get much better than that. Keith came in the other day to do drum recording as it goes which was cool.

Wish your dad was still around, such a talented engineer and his work was second to non.

I know you will see this 3stars rating and think, who the hell is this a**hole, but I want to help you further instead of saddening u. This track is not so good melodic-wise and technical-wise.

First off, try to see what elements make a drum and bass track good.
This ofcourse, is different for different kind of dnb genres, I think you tried to achieve
-Neurofunk (Mostly heavy bass, minimalistic melody, mid and highs lots of room for drums) See artists like Noisia and Black Sun Empire. If you want too get a bit of the prodigy vibe back, search for the noisia remix of smash my b*tch up, its very good
-Jumpup DnB (Mostly, simple bass with simple distorted melody, viby flowy mood, drums occasionally play alone for 1/4 of a second) See artists like Macky Gee and Substainless.

These are not the only styles within DnB. Someone who mixes these two kinda up is Mussy.
Try to aim for a pure style first before mixing the styles up, you are still not technically advanced enough (which you will learn eventually) to mix styles up.

Thanks dude only been doing this for twenty years, if you don't like it someone else will...I will say its not my best track by any stretch of the imagination, but chopping it up to be as long as it is was not a particularly easy task (it was under a minute originally!) and I know it sounds like a monkey did it, but you know what! I make trance music and don't particularly make drum and bass often, and if this is the kind of comment I get I won't make any more D&B and just stick to my normal territory! Or just make a really angry Drum and bass track (this track got over a 100 views on the tubes, so I guess this is not the correct audience or platform?)

I thought it sounded good, thanks for being blunt, I do like a constructive comment. Instead of someone saying a couple of words and that is usually along the lines of: "this track is a load of donkey doo" So thankyou in that respect for writing a long and constructive comment and in hopes that I may improve. But I will say I never said I was the prodigy and this track was made in 2007... I'v only just remixed it and do also believe im technically advanced enough that I've had radio air time on frequent occasions with the likes of the BBC and local radio so I do know I'm doing something right, even if its not to your taste!
