Over the years (probly about 8 now) I've built up my sample collection from many many different sources. Its logical, and I really like the way it works, because its quite similar to the old MM v2 that I used to use, just alot, lot better. And im going to investigate Reason soon, when i get round to it. Other music production software (DAWs) that are really good are Reason, Reaktor, and Sony Acid Pro (which Rusko uses). Mind you, i wasnt making dubstep then, just screwy messy trippy type songs with various waves that i had. It was basically an arranger and nothing more, and i knew nothing about VSTs and effects or anything. I started off making music a long time ago in Magix Music Maker v2, which was free of a magazine, and was crap. Personally I use Cubase SX3 (Im hoping to get version 5 soon, on a student license, for Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£241) Which i really like. Things like fruity loops and magix music maker are all very well and good, but they dont produce the results and the versitality that the pro's use. #) I think a good thing to start out with is your software. Rather than do a step by step process of making good music, i'll just write out a few pointers, as you cant really say 1) do this 2) do this 3) publish, it doesnt work like that unfortunately! So lets begin. Particular favorites are Caspa ( and Rusko ( These two are what got me into dubstep in the first place, listening to Fabriclive37 (my all time favorite track being Africa, by 'The Others') and since then i've found lots of other artists that i absolutely love (See my profile page, But a few names are Bar9, The Widdler, Reso, Stenchman and Suspect) all of which can be found on myspace. Im not a professional by any means, but as I said, i've had good feedback and i'd like to share my thoughts on the music making process with you all.įirst of all, if you dont know what Dubstep is, go and check it out.

I dont like to boast, at all, but I feel i've made some good dubstep songs recently and judging from the feedback i've had on looperman I think thats quite a far statement.Īnyway, I want to share some of technics and advice with people, as I think it could help out people quite alot.
