Hello, I had been feeling guilty about not producing any tracks in a while when I came across these two breaks artists '48k' and 'too dusty' which inspired my to have a go at the genre.
I didn't put quite as much time into the post tweaking as I would have liked, but I would appreciate any criticism, especially that pertaining to improving the clarity/quality. Thanks in advance for any input!

i like it.
there is just some over harshness on the high end, really fatigues the ear fast, the hats in particular, but nice work within this genre!

I dig the bass. Nice collection of sounds and arrangement. In the beginning I feel that some of those larger hits (sounds like they have a big reverb on em) take over the mix too much/might just be a bit long (might be partly my speakers too...).

I agree with faxinadu.
The track itself sounds pretty cool, but high frequencies are too screechy.
Cheers!

I think the people has spoken (on your comentaries).I like that very much.Very nice arrangement.Very groovy stuff.
On the arrangement : On the breaks there could be more chance to use pads and stuff like that,make it more the "soul" type on the breaks.
About the high noises,well i dunno,Ive heard worse in dubstep clubs (with a mother f DJ shouting bullshit on top of the LFO leads that came from hell)..I really hate high pitched sounds myself,but i dunno,i don't hear much different then your brostep tracks which pound it constantly.
Personaly I would love hear more psy type on breaks,more dubstepy type LFO work during the "main scene" (well,if you already do that kind of stuff,some wobble wobble wobwobwob can't hurt),and more variety also in sounds.But I find it not bad as it is.
From all the things I lost,that sandwitch cost me most :)

Hey Nice Music there bro ,not something i follow much..but its gotta wicked vibe comming out of it . Great Mood , nice charactor, very cool , playful and notorious kind i would say haha here is a lot of intellengence in the structure and arrangement . hits the right spot on your brains , makes you dance for shure . ohh yes , and i love that melody , how minimal it is and still plays a very important role.
the part at 2.15 to 2.18 , twisted groooooove .. if just you cud loop that part a few more times itll turn it very dancable and trancey . also if u manage to merge in 1.o2 (maybe just the sounds )with this(2.16) section it will make it sound very poetic... but thats just personal prefrance , really dig the arrangement in that section ,as a listener would like to grooove on it a lil more . as of now its just perfect(musically) .
you already have a lotta sounds that replicates the dubstep wobbles . avoid them more or it would just sound like the usuall stuff ..as of now what i like innit , is the uniqueness and the mood aswell .
i think the highs are very appropriate for this kind of genere , has that dirty factor going . i like the fx on it . however you can take it off if a lotta people point that out . its also personal prefrance .
maybe some of those square pusher kind break with those complicated snare rolls and stuff , just at some parts ( workin like a build up ) will fit in perfect .
all in all , nice music dude , ,just a lil more finishing job and you have a killer track there.
hope i managed to put my point across without cauding confusion haha
Keep going mate , hoping to hear more stuff .
Cheers

THIS IS TOTALLY UP MY ALLY!

whoa, sorry there. got a little excited.
this is a good tune mate. i would have liked to hear some more clarity on the cymbals/percussion (did you pitch the hats down in a sampler?) but you build a great groove anyways.
love the stabby sounds a kind of clubby vibe of it. fits right in with the best of my glitch-hop collection.

Thanks a bunch guys. I agree about the high end, the hats and glitch percs could use tad less dist (i lost all my mixer track states after a blue-screen once the song was nearly done and kinda rushed through to get them back how they were so some of the levels are kindof fucked).
As for filling some areas with pads, totally, perhaps a voice sample/perc (just it was getting a little congested already).
The last segment could have been looped twice as long, which is what i would normally have done. Just felt it made more pronouncement shorter.
Still needs sidechaining, and tons of tweaking/ finishing touches. Probably better to just start a fresh track at this point.
