I don't like the first half that much, did this in like 2 days, ideas for improvements would be nice :D

eh i don't like it very much, work on making those sounds alot less harsh and learn way more about the DAW you're using for mastering techniques etc
One of the most important things in dubstep is a hard hitting snare, and if my calculations are correct,
your song contained zero snares!
This is cool bro.
Give yourself a shitty haircut and you'll be the next Skrillex

now that I think of it I don't xD I'll try to fit some in and maybe give the drums a better sound

I tried to make it really harsh :p

Yeah but the thing is, you'll almost need to do the drums again - try a half-step pattern as opposed to the '4 to the floor' trance-y one

This is not really harsh in a good way
What the fuck is with your drum track? You understand that making a song completely out of kicks will decrease listenability by 100%, don't you?
[QUOTE=Croix;32016136]This is not really harsh in a good way[/QUOTE]
then I'm guessing you're talking about the synth? it's really obnoxious in some audio set-ups I've tried toning it down, but I'll fix it

it's still a work in progress, I like the structure so far I just want to get ideas for improvements and changing the drums is already on the list

Cool

You don't know that, it's just his first dubstep attempt. And I think even if it was his first song, he'd still think to include at least some snare.

Maybe he just plum forgot?

actually the only other electronic song I've made was a bass raping hardstyle POS
Oh, you listen to hardstyle. This explains everything.

You are an ass
The crits about the snare were valid, sure. But now you are just going at his tastes in music.
Have you listened to hardstyle? It rarely has snare drum. I'm just saying that it explains why he didn't think to include snare.

Lmao, I see. Sorry then.
Text sucks
I hate hardstyle, but that's not what I meant by that.
It was just a misunderstanding. it's chill
This isn't a bad start at all! However, you kept using the same synths over and over. Change up the syths, effects, or just change the overall shape of the sounds. Mix that shit up!
How about attempting some real music.

hahaha oh man you are so ~edgy~!
No need to be a dick since he's obviously very new to this.
The bass it to rushed, if you understand me?
How did you make this?

[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubstep"]last time i checked, dubstep was real music[/URL]
wow I looked more into Hardstyle and Dubstep Halfstep drums and realized I pretty much made Hardstyle with a dubstep bass xD I feel stupid I might drop this song because I don't want to have to remake the bass and the drums
The kick was way too much like hardcore,
the wub wasn't melodic enough,
there were too many harsh sounds with no real blending,
it was OK at best.
