How much more to Skrillex's level? - unfa - 11-24-2014



I'm pushing my synthesis and mixing skills forward, this is not related to Xonotic, but I just wanted to say "voilĂ !".

What do you think?

Will UKF music play my stuff? Should I send this to some labels? No? Stop freaking out? Yes? Huh?

Not bad, but I like your album tracks much more!

Thanks Smile
Yeah, this is less melodic and complicated compared to the album "Static" - rather straightforward and more depending on complexity of the tones, than the complexity of melodies. However I like the drumline, it has some tasty licks in it.

Wonder if I can mix this drumsteppy style with the awesome polyphony of baroque?

For a lack of a better word, but it needs to be more "dirty", e.g. it has too many "clean" midi like sounds in it that remind my of electronic music from the 1990ties.

Overall not bad though.

Thanks, poVoq.

How about this one?

Is it dirty enough? That was on of my goals. How does this sound?

Sounds good but needs more bass! Big Grin

EDIT: Also I think it could be slightly slower and louder kick and snare (and a constant loud open high hat in background) would make it sound more heavy

That actually doesn't sound generic at all, I'm no fan of dubstep but I like the sound of that track.


RE: How much more to Skrillex's level? - unfa - 12-20-2014

@machine!:

Yeah, that pretty fast for dubstep but I found the good ol' 140 BPM to feel very slow to me Big Grin It's more drumstep tempo I guess.

@Smilecythe:

I'm pleased to hear this Smile
