I did a new tune... had some mixed reactions.

Im fairly happy with it though some said its a bit confused. I also dont have any monitors yet... saving up and should have some in the summer so bear with me on that one.

Its called "Next" and its on www.myspace.com/missrepresent

Feedback much appreciated. Im thinking of taking some of the sounds or quieting them in the intro  Smiley

Not sounding to bad. A couple of things from me.

Personally I don't like that synth which is kind of detuned and all over the place pitch wise, but that's just IMO.
Maybe a bit more variety in the drums as well?

Other than that all it needs is a bit of a master.

I really like the main riff which pops in at around the 1min mark though.

Keep up the good work.

Edit: And to me yes it does sound a bit confused, maybe try to link it together in some way?

nice tune, sounded a bit muddy in the mid/low end tho (could be the mp3?).  That lead b-line noise is cool, drums are nice too.  A bit more mastering would bring it out nicely IMO.   Smiley

aww thanks guys and gals.

I have no monitors, so all been done in my headphones... currently saving up for some studio monitors!
Its my 6th completed tune, so still learning. Just sooo time consuming, thats taken me about 2 weeks, and working 60 hour weeks at work, with promoting dnb nights and dj-ing at weekends isnt leaving me much time to even scratch my arse.  laugh

Natho, I hear ya about the synth, Im not too sure I like it either, but I play about with stuff and one thing I try to do is finish every tune I start... and I dont like going back in and fiddling with stuff once it kinda sounds listenable because I find I piss about with it way too much and then it sounds completley fucked. And then I cant be arsed to finish it, if that makes sence. IE im not touching it now, I will move on to the next one.

I really appreciate everyone takin the time to listen to it though! There is so many people going "listen to my tune listen to my tunes" all the time... that when you do stop and take 5 mins its real good of ya all!
