current WIP, made in Renoise.

A quick arrangement, still deciding what direction it should go in (more organic-sounding or more trippy/ soundscape-ish)

Hey :)

Somehow when it comes to producing dubstep music i feel pretty confident about the intro, but when it comes to the drop / bass part, i have no clue about how to make it fit to the intro. Please leave me some feedback on how to make a sick drop! any thoughts and links to tutorials / music theory are very welcome :)

Cheers

Response to Works In Progress Advice Thread! 2012-04-26 22:51:27


I'd like to hear from someone with some reasonable sense about what kind of instrument I should lead this with.
It's actually making me feel a little angry that I can't complete it at present.

Anyone for feedback, I'd be glad to have it.

Here's a piece I am working on, it's "program music" for the first two chapers of a book set in early Ancient Rome. I plan to get at least three chapters done, with perhaps a maximum of 5 chapters (5 movements).

I am *very* new to purely electronic music making and so would love to get some advice/comments about a track I'm working on.

I'm not even able to actually classify its genre. I picked "progressive trance" in the SoundCloud list, but if you think this sounds more like something else (wouldn't surprise me), please speak up :-)

http://soundcloud.com/realnc/i-wish-it-would-rain

It's unfinished at this point; somewhat over 3 minutes and ends abruptly. I hope to get it to about 6 minutes.

Response to Works In Progress Advice Thread! 2012-06-11 20:26:20


Hey guys,
So I've been having some trouble with mixing/mastering/production where I think it might sound alright, but have little to no formal experience with it to justify that thought. I came out with a new track and was wondering if I could get some advice on how to get it sounding good from anyone who knows their shit better than I do (i.e. anyone).

Thanks!

Response to Works In Progress Advice Thread! 2012-06-20 07:06:04


Finalizing but advice is always welcome.

The idea is a crazy videogame soundish mix that could have come out of an arcade cabinet.
The project itself is the audio for a speeddrawing painting that a friend is doing with a VG Theme.

The soundcloud one is the full 10+ minutes version.

I've spent what seems like an eternity on this song, but since it's still lyrically and musically (mainly the outro) incomplete, I figure it belongs on here. And, hey, maybe SOMEONE will review it. Will return the favor + 1. And I'm following the guidelines by reviewing someone else's WIP (now) even if no one even listens to mine.

guitar rig fucking rocks my socks

You wanted feedback on the drums? I would use the crash more liberally since this is on the fringe of thrash metal, and no headbanging is really complete without a crash symbol to go along with it. I also thought the hi hats were a bit random. I dunno, it just seemed a tad spurratic. That being said, the rest of the drums were quite good. I liked the pattern of kicks and snares. Some of the tom fills left more to be desired...but I have absolutely no room to speak there o.0

Guitar playing was nice, especially when it was doubled up with lead and rhythm. Guitar rig is a plugin for iPhone's right? I think I saw one at Radio Shack the other day. Nice work

Need help on how to continue/finish this remix I'm working on.

Flo-Rida - Whistle (Assios Handsup Remix)

The part at 0:56. Should I keep that whisteling there, or swap it for a synth with the same melody? ALL feedback is appreciated. Thanks in advance! :)

Also, I'd like feedback on this. If the review system doesn't work, tell me and I'll publish it sometime.

This is really my comfort area. I want to expand on this but in the past this sort of thing got a crummy reception

I am trying to make like infomercial music or background music. I am seeking advice and guidance to get this thing into that category. It is not mastered yet, I am seeking advice as to where I can go with it what you would try to do with it. etc..

Hi guys!

Anyone experienced in making downtempo styled tracks? If so, this is a plea for help! Not sure what I can incorporate into the rest of the track. Any ideas?

Much appreciated!
