181 BPM with a few tempo drops here and there. Automation is your friend :)

Introduced a heavy gabber kick drum here. Wanted to avoid using those midi horns again but IMO they don't sound terrible after a little distortion and EQ. I made the mistake of working off tempo with the sequencer grid so sometimes I got lost in the rhythms trying to find the pulse. Tried going heavier on the bass this time.

^ Used the namesake sample from this documentary on reality. I'm still using my wind chimes, they'll get old quick.

Spacey DnB is awesome!

Quarl responds:

Lol, I didn't really think of it as "spacey" but I love how much power a title can have over the atmosphere of a song :D

was the heavy bass suppose to tell me about the universe if so then now i know... anyway good work with the heavier bass i like it but i would take it to the next level with not just bass but with clarity... for example i always listen to hard rock and metalcore with the right amount of bass and alot of clarity... its something that i play around alot with music...

Quarl responds:

Metalcore? That's new to me. I listen to a lot of grindcore tho.
