New Ep Demo. Dark Dubsteppy Song

Uploaded by Kid Icaris on April 29th 2009, 12:25 PM

my songs gradually seem to be using lets pure chiptune. ive been experimenting with filters and effects turn sawtooths and squares into my wobbles. this is just a rough unfinished version of my new track. im pretty happy with it at the moment just need to edit a few bits and give it a ending. hope you like.

  • Hurrigame Boy : the beginning of this song is so good, but then i dunno, the wubs kind of seem comical with there dotted rhythms and stuff, keep the rest of the song like the intro and i will have sex with it.

  • dickbreasts : i thought you pulled this sort of bassline straight out of your rectum because i've never heard a dubstep bassline with this much melodic content and variation, but now i realize it's more of a garage sound, which is a great thing.

  • Kid Icaris : yeah i use a lot of bit crushers and effects on the bass. EQ'ing normally does the job pretty good. on the actual vst filter i turn the res down a touch because it makes the wobble clearer and less high pitched but the effects give it a crispyness. just mess around with effects and youll be able to find the sound :)

  • Forever The Win : This is pretty immaculate. There's a big dubstep scene in Baltimore now too. :) Went up there last month and saw RUSKO. That man is a god of the bass. Sounds like you've got the compression and mastering down now, no clipping :) I know it's probably difficult to explain but how exactly do you get that really resonant wobble? Is the res sweeping with the cut in the lfo or in a seperate filter on top of or below the lfo or what? ...Or is it like a bitcrush somewhere? I just can't figure it out. btw i finished my LSDubstepJ track and upped it so you should check it out ;)

  • hooblah : would there be a place for somebody to listen to some of your non-lofi dubstep stuff?
    on April 30th 2009, 09:09 AM
  • Michael : F-ing amazing once again, I really like your music, hope the EP will be out soon.
    on April 30th 2009, 09:04 AM
  • Kid Icaris : i know its not pure 8 bit. but im taking the basics of 8bit such as the square, sawtooth and triangle waves and im changing them. making them sound different it doesnt sound 8 bit because it sounds differnt but the bass is purely made from filtered square and sawtooths. just because it doesnt sound like normal lsdj chiptune doesnt mean its not made with chips. you can use software to transofrm 8bit sounds into something completely different but no one else seems to ever do it. and the e.p should be done during mid may i hope :)

    on April 29th 2009, 09:28 PM
  • weave of k. : cool stuff man. i'm not sure if this fits in the 8-bit genre tho... ya know?
    on April 29th 2009, 07:49 PM
  • KingRat : i agree with focus punch, sounds alot like something squarepusher would make. Super neat-o!
    on April 29th 2009, 04:06 PM
  • Kid Icaris : haha owh yes. and i could have another mountain dew tht u gave me! there needs to be another brighton gig / gathering but better arrangeddd!

  • Hurrigame Boy : sam if i could i would rewind to the time we had chips near brighton pier and have this song on my phone so i could freak the fuck out just for you. you absolute legend.

    on April 29th 2009, 01:25 PM
  • ant1 : I really like this, it's a good track. But no offense, I just don't think this is relevant enough - this isn't 32-bit dubstep collective... I'm looking forward to your EP anyways though :P
    on April 29th 2009, 01:23 PM
  • Focus Punch! : some sounds remind me a little of squarepusher. i'd leave it as it is. its sweet
    on April 29th 2009, 01:12 PM
  • nerdsome : Very sick. I'm a huge dubstep fan so I'm loving this! I wish I could figure out how to get sounds like that from LSDJ.
