So this is kind of the intro song which is dubstep in 6/4 beat, and then it transitions into a 4/4 beat song thats still very much inprogress. However, the idea here is to have the EP be kind of a continous mix That as seamlessly as possibly transitions and carries over some elements from the previous song so that the EP has a very specific flavour to it.

Anyway check out the preview!

I LOVE how you are using different time signatures. I've been dreaming of the day when dstep artists experimented with time sigs. Maybe I just haven't found the right songs.

I liked the drop, keep it up
Life's good :D

I really like the textures you are using, I'm really interested in seeing a more somber/heavy side of your dubstep, I don't know what you're planning to do with this track but it could change its mood a little towards the end. At least it would work for me. Keep up the good work.

Its a decent effort, can't say anything really stood out for me though.

Who are your influences?

Thanks for the comments guys!

Took yours and some other positive comments i've gotten recently and made a wordcloud of it, really fun and motivating to look at for me.

I'd say the direction the EP will take about when this part ends is into a more progressive house music kind of style.

And i haven't really thought about what my influences are, i mean. My music isnt 100% new thinking, but i'd like to think that its somewhat of my own style.

And the artists i love to listen to in general are the big more "flavourful" EDM producers, Justice, Daft Punk, Nero, Skrillex. Knife party and Deadmau5 to name a few. But i wouldnt say that i listen to them and try to emulate them, rather try to compare quality, length and trying to identify why people love them so much.

What i've come to realize is that most people need something to "hold on to". With Justice its that renewed old school soundstyle with excellent composing. With Deadmau5 and Daft Punk its all about the soundscape and they're really masters at using it.

So i want to extract the knowledge from them, or something, when i listen to them. And i guess you could call that an influence.

Thanks, much love man!

This video is the fastest growing video i've had on youtube. And if you compare it to my other dubstep track i got on there from 4 months ago i feel i've come a long way.

It also means that its "worth it" to post my music to my youtube, so ill be doing that more often now. Before i was thinking i'd mainly have my youtube channel as a producing tutorial channel. But all you "guyses" response to this track made me realize im closer to my goals then i originally thought.

Im just a bit sad that my internship as an IT consultant is so time consuming and energy draining. But its comments like these (and enjoying some good time slacking off) that makes me keep on trucking.

Sounds great. Nice job.

I would love if it wasn't so "clean". Hard to describe, but I wish it could be a tad more grimy / messy.. Kavinsky style.
Have you tried messing with some distortion (apart from the wub wubs )?

Keep it up though. We all have our different opinions, and you're on the right track.

Haha, the critizism i had before on the wip on this song was that the bass was too distorted(its got like 3 distortion effects on it right now). But if you mean like more messy grimy like the old school dubstep thats kinda not what i like, and if you mean just plainly more "violent" then im gonna say youre gonna have to wait for track 3 of this EP :D Keep in mind this is just the intro.
