lol

[K2017 - Aurora [Echoes Release]]

very nice dude

[Immortal (New Version)]

oof there's a lot of things that could be better here -

~First, at the start, the downlifter seem a bit harsh on the ears. Go into an equalizer and cut out that frequency, or try a new sample altogether.

~The Transitions are very loud and abrupt, especially in 1:22 & 2:59 You should be able to expect them whenever you go to the drop or breakdown.

~The sounds in the drop sounds kinda generic and muddy, and the sub should be louder.

~There is no Sidechain. In order to have a cleaner mix, you should add sidechain to avoid the low bass frequency clashing with the fundamentals of the kick and snare.

HOWEVER
~ I like the overall feel and rhythm of the track, especially in the first drop. (Kinda sounds like your fighting a boss or something along those lines.)

OVERALL
~ Overall it's a nice track, but I feel the way it's mixed, it kind of ruins it. I'll be glad to listen to it again if you do ever come around remastering this track. Hopefully, this helped you in some way, cheers!

Benji-G responds:

Ty for the feedback. And yes ik, I am a terrible mixer. Tbh I don't mix the sounds too much because I am too bad at it. I need more experience to be able to mix sounds and make good dubstep. Besides, I don't have any good dubstep plugins, so I mostly used Harmor for this lol. And I don't even have the full version of Harmor.
But yeah, again, ty for the feedback, I learn from my mistakes.

[2 WIP song previews]

These two songs are really great. However, the mixing on both of these isn't...

~That being said, the Kick & Snare could be better improved by making them stand out more in the mix.

~please, make the sidechain stronger.

~Furthermore the track sound really quiet. If you could maybe saturate the basses a bit more and add two more layers on the supersaws, then I could really see these track coming to life.

~The bass in the 1st drop seems a bit muddy, maybe EQ a bit out in the 200HZ-230HZ region.

~And as an extra tip, when you are trying to make a strong impact such as (00:14) (00:28) (01:02) (01:17), Let the audience know that there is going to be something strong and impactful happening by having a short riser that is almost, but not quite, as loud as the drop/next part.

Hopefully, you can incorporate these tips into your track. Always remember, the more practice you put in, the better you will become.

[Destruction [Drumstep] - Killer-FX]

Absolutely fire dude!
