Dark Side of Drum n bass

[DJ Eddy]

Ok this is my first ever try at a metal song (well Heavy metal DnB)
I aint got a clue when it comes to rock or metal i never really listen to it but ive been checking ppls metal and it made me wanna give it a go (but  in my  own way).
Its a bit messy in some places i might make it neater 1 day.
Made using MTVMG 2002.
Plz let us know what u think.

this pretty fucking sick-i love the creepy pads and the almost dubstep like beat-the come ur guitars-they sound pretty fluid and don't really sound like samples-i'm a fan i guess u can tell cause i put 3 of ur tracks on renegades 8-theres so much cool new stuff i prolly need to do 2 or 3 back to back mixes,i'm just kinda been lazy-i'm currently downloading abuncha movies for a grindhouse cinema collection and it's kinda time consuming(also makes my pc so slow i can't do much)u got so much good stuff coming out i'll have to put like 2 of ur tracks on every mix lol-keep experimenting with different genres it's a good move and fun as hell   cheers   casper

[DJ Eddy]

yea ive been mucking around with different styles lately..
Might have to do some hip hop next..
thnx again for the comment m8.
Id be chuffed if put my tracks on ur mixes i love those mixes and its sort of what ive been trying to do since i joined this site.
Cheers....

well don't worry you will be on a lot of mixes to come-u should compile an album m8-i want my next mix to also include some guys i missed last time like not a number,fear 2stop,master dutch,knowlsey,danthrax and others so i gotta keep that in mind-i really try to make a diverse mix rather than just the stuff i am partial to-like house trance and rave/hardcore-so that everyone feels included.i like your jamwave page btw-good songs in a flash player:-D     casper

[DJ Eddy]

Yea i see ur high in the electronic chart, rightly so u got some damn amazing tunes in the flashy =).
I was thinking about doing an album but i might make a few different styles first then do it.
I know what u mean about putting other ppl and styles on your mixes nice to have a range for everyone to listen 2.

Fucking hell man ! My first immediate thought after listening is PENDULUM ! that was awesome , I think should do an album man...completely like THIS :-)

[DJ Eddy]

cheers m8 thats quite a big compliment, im definitly gonna do the album.
glad u like it seeing as dark stuff is ur style and u seem 2 know ur stuff cause ive heard ur songs.

[DreadSpawn]

Holy crap. this is pendulem meets rob zombie!! I am impressed mate, really impressed.

[DJ Eddy]

Thnx m8 means alot coming from u as u seem to roll off the guitar tunes like nothing.

[DreadSpawn]

I just like to use the deepest stuff i can find, then make it constant as possible, if you know what i mean. I try to do it so people think theres no let up from me. I use Sustain D and Sustain C, tune them together, have one on the right side, the other on the left. I then use walking bass and another bass with that and the sounds starts to come together. I don't think you really need my help tho mate coz what you have happening is unique, and i'd just hammer on with that. I think DJ Eddy has his own style and i want more!! lol

[DJ Eddy]

thnx m8 ill have to try the sustain out cheers.
Like i said tho i aint got a clue when it comes to guitar so every little tip helps cheers.
Btw must have Karma 1 from me lol...

[DreadSpawn]

What is karma?

[DJ Eddy]

Its the cheer or boo thing below ur name on the left.

[DreadSpawn]

Aww ok, sick...was i cheered or booed? haha Hey check out the 11th hour my knowlesy there's another tip on there you might like

[DJ Eddy]

booed all the way lol....joke....i think boo takes it down im not sure.
checked it out cheers again.

[DreadSpawn]

Haha cheers mate. i meant BY knowlesy there haha. Hey where abouts you from anyways? I'm an aussie, its about lunch time here too. Another thing i do sometimes is double up on samples, like guitars and drum beats. I find it gives it that extra bit of insanity haha.

[DJ Eddy]

England m8 and its pretty l8 here lol.
i do to and pan a kick drum 50% each way sounds better IMO.
Actully i use about 3 different kick drums and 2 or 3 snares.

[DreadSpawn]

Yeah so do i mate. I love the sound of a snare thats metallic sounding. A lot of my stuff is industrial too. Maybe i should attempt a dance metal song...hmm...

[DJ Eddy]

lol go for it m8......ive got plenty of happy hardcore on here u can check out.
I was think of making a sort of dancy techno Drum n bass song and calling it..Light Side Of Drum n Bass.

[DreadSpawn]

Hey good concept. Make a song, same melody, but one version heavy, dark and gothic, the other soft and happy lol. Yep, Dance metal, i'll make one to go in my next ten uploads. What do people mean by make an album? Like i know i could make an album but i wasn't sure what the concept was.
