Practicing a bit with some drum rhythms at 130 ... I'm having a really good time at these speeds. I still have to polish this track a bit, especially the melody. But I would like to ask you for some feedback before giving the final touches.
i like this! i think a 303 line could go well with the melody, which should be repeated longer imo, also you could add some low pitch tom to make the bass part more moving :) i would also try to apply a bit of waveshaper to the low frequency drums :)
Like it man! Only crit is the drums really, they all need to be mixed in together, levelled and processed a bit more to make them sound a bit more cohesive. Also, the drum patterns themselves are cool individually, but overall and together, they seem a bit random with no clear direction. But ive just read the desc so its not major crit if youre just trying stuff out :D
Interesting, ive never really thought about it much either. I guess it comes down to what genre youre making overall. I cant speak for techno/dub/etc cause i dont make it, but in DnB and Dubstep its all about creating a nice groove that the listener can easily follow along to, given that the drums are the rhythmic anchor of a track. There's also a sense of realism to be attained, in the sense that youre effectively your own drummer when it comes to electronic music so it has to sound 'real'
thanks for the feedback mate, i really appreciate it! yeah i was mostly practicing a little on this one, but thats an interesting topic I havent thought much abbout: how to give the beat more direction.. any tips on that regard?
yeah thats kind of what i want to achieve, but I'm really struggling to get where I want with this one :/ i will keep trying tho, thanks a lot for the feedback, as always <3
Nice work dude. Maybe short notes to make the connection between the melodic line. Let me try to be more clear. Suposing your aim is C, maybe a fast climb G>A>B>>>C (1/16 snap, 1/8 triplets also fits awesome). I hope this can gve you some good ideas! Keep on rocking!!!
yeah i will try to do something like that tomorrow, today I've tryed so may different things but nothing sounded quite right. just need to let it rest ig , thanks a lot for the feedback :)
