"For the fun of it. Dnb with housepiano?" - lovely dynamics and house piano which could benefit from some melodic strings support - I can definitely listen to this kind of DnB :D
"024 - Lofi" - I think rim sound is a bit too loud for me or you could add some nicely timed reverb to it, it would add warm space to this WIP.
"de-gangsters-op-de-laan" - very soothing and melancholic work. As far your bass line - I think level is OK but I would personally add a bit of low end to it for let it wonder around longer (if you know what I mean) :)
"No bounds (Work in Progress)" - this is definitely product to work on and release. All of those above WIP's are good and should see day light lol but this one in particular should be number one on your priorities list ;)
Cheers,
Darek T/a DariusX

Because why not. Not really looking for feedback, just sharing some WIPs for the fun of it. Cheesy house piano with dnb beat. Love the drums, bassline too. Remainder is fun listen but I feel this should be a hard hitter more than this soft stuff :D
And a WIP in progress with the neighbour (bass guitar way too loud)
And one more which I'm not sure I'll finish. It's an updated version of the one posted 3 months ago or so.

hey I still pop(poop) in here time from time, its a seasonal thing for now.
happy easter, nice clean mixes all around!
something im dabbling with, careful its loud. slight upgrade on my speakers wonder how it translates. |
|

| Hey MSZ, this sounds a lot better than previous mixes! I'D say there is still room for improvement by lowering the bassline volume and probably increasing the kick and low toms volume. Hopefully thay will already do a lot for the whole :) |

hey man, thanks! cant blame the speakers here, just bad/lazy mixing on my part. maybe things to do as you say: remove toms, stabilize bass and lower bass, agreed with those points good ears!
I put a little more work in, still new to the speakers I got only used them a few hours but Im running into some snags.
trouble keeping the sub constant, I tried patching it up as much as I could maybe resampling with some engine could help me im running out of ideas. The toms, i've decided to leave them in for now I think they are staying with the project because they're giving the kick a little boost, the kick is the weak point still, reduced the sub a bit but still a/bing its still seems way too powerful even for drum and bass tracks referenced but it is what it is im not mastering engineer and any work I do will sound on a PA system for sure.

| Yeah, maybe take out some of the sub of the bassline so the kick can come through? And lower the volume of the bass further. They overtones of the bass seem to sit nicely into the mix. Different/more sidechaining might be an option too. if you can get the kick to come through nicely with the bassline (perhaps just solo those 2) then this mix will drastically improve. |

Something a bit more chilling and nostalgic and I'm also wondering how this bass is seating in this WIP.

Bassline seems perhaps a bit too deep. Enjoyable piece. I like the chilled vibe. I like how you didn't go all out with instruments this time too. Sometimes it can be a bit much :D. Good one this!
Are any of your snippets still pushed to platforms later on? This one I could see part of my liked songs on Spotify :). I just don't know where to look/find you. |

Sounds good man, appreciate your quick response and agree with your bass suggestion, I wasn't set myself on this particular sound but I have few different ones which, in my opinion, would sound a bit tighter. As far as my releases, you can find all of those links to Beatport, Traxsource, Spotify and few others on my Soundcloud page.
