[[Techstep] Sour]

Techstep eh

Techstep would go under dnb section. This doesnt sound like techstep to me thought. Its pretty slow to be techstep. Kemal & Rob Data(Konspiracy). Or The Sect -Tyrant.

TrystanSeven responds:

Oh, I'm not sure, I just thought it wasn't bass-y enough to be dubstep.

[Fredgy - Drum&Bass WIP]

Nice

I like the movement and composition. But there would be a few things I would change. I would make the snare a little bit more snappy. The bass muffles the punchy kick. Maybe eqing may help or sidechaining. Its pretty good.

Fredgy responds:

drum set is in my list of points i want to do yet :p
eqing also and sidechaining is there already, but i need to redo my kick too
that could make it better already
Maybe i'll get some more sidechaining in there, but i need to see how it looks like, after i did all that points ;)
thanks!

ol school hardcore

The mix sounds pretty good to me. I am no expert though. Sounds like a mix of hardcore/dance music. Something you will hear on streets of rage series. Ol school hardcore music is pretty cool I hear some clipping in the attack of the bass.

DJSwat responds:

sweet thanks! and yes the bass line was clipped a little but im in the process of reworking it!

s.w.a.t

[Nexus Velocity]

Hardstyle

I remember the first time I listened to hardstyle I was hooked, then somehow I became a dnb addict later. But this is pretty good stuff. I gave it a 5, but I am sorry that some people probably zero bombed you though. Probably because hardstyle in trance section = wtf lol.

Freeload responds:

There is no Hardstyle section on newgrounds, so i dunno why they're pissed.

[-BG- Clubbin' Seals]

I the sounds

From you previous songs I kind of like this one the best. I can't tell you what genre this is, Its a nice instrumental. I don't know how to help you with this song because it seems kinda solid. Its just a matter of the viewers opinion. Maybe try adding a little extra spice and effects once you master fruity loops which I dont use unfortunately.

B-RadGfromOV responds:

I like it best too. thanks for the 9!

[Frequency Poisoning]

Sick song

I respect your style and cant complain about anything. Actually I wonder if you have any tips on making a sick bass like that. Is this song mastered? I mean this is real dnb and most dnb songs on this site is a joke in comparison.

BeAtBrEaKeR187 responds:

Thanks alot man, yeah i mastered it myself.

tips to making bass sounds like the womps: get 2 oscillators open, detune one by 7 cents and keep the other normal, i think for these i used a square wave and a sawrez wave but i forget, but then add distortion (if the plugin has distortion on it already it's a bonus) and route the LFO to the dist with an upwards saw wave. if you can, get your hands on rob papen subboombass, probably the best thing ive ever bought! you can try it out for free for like 30 days on robpapen.com. anything by rob papen will pretty much do the trick as far as making sounds like this, its just a question of getting to know your way round them!

and as for the comment about this being real dnb and most of the other stuff on here not being.. COMPLETELY agree, most of the stuff in this section sounds like fucking stupid presetty shit, i doubt most in here couldn't even work their way round the 3osc plugin on fruityloops rofl.

take it easy dude message me if u need anymore advice!

[Grey (instrumental)]

I'll try to help ya out,,try

I think the reason it is scored so low is because of the samples/instruments you used. I think the idea and composition is alright, but the instruments isnt banging. I made lots of songs and trashed them after I listened to them a week later because the quality of my drums, samples, instruments just sound boring or weak.

Anyway thats my opinion. I think iam going to make another song now.

B-RadGfromOV responds:

Thanks.

[Rucklo - Two Slices of PI]

I like the intro

I like how you build up the intro. This is alright. I need to start working on transition myself. But I am more focused on trying to sound pro a moment.

Rucklo responds:

it's not exactly built like a standard dnb-tune is built, but pretty close, with a long intro, a break, etc. it should be rather easy to mix in a set at least, which is the reason for the long intro.. thanks for the review!

[{Vic} Liquid Dance Remix]

Pretty good drum n bass

This is what people should kind of aim for in drum n bass on newgrounds. Fast paced dangerous movement, or laid back jazzy ambient is nice too.
The intro threw me off a little.
YOU MUST GIVE ME DA KICK SAMPLE.

ZOMGBIE responds:

Once again, the intro throwing people off. If this keeps up I'm removing it :P. Thanks for the compliments though. DnB was never my strong suit so it's good to know I'm improving.
