Nu Rave | Breakbeat | Electro (Assistance/Moving Forward)

Music Production Music Tech Discussion

Hi All,

I have posted this in search of a guru or production master that might be able to fill the gaps i’m having throughout the production process.

As seen on my soundcloud, i am creating Nu Rave Electro (Mostly 130bpm) with Bassline leads/heavy melody with some varied Beat rythmns.

I believe my main faults are:-

Structure (Some label state that because it breaks conventional (Verse/Chorus/Verse/Rhiff/Chorus,Extro) structure, that it won’t sell).

In terms of how this goes live, it tends to bang the floor pretty hard, but i was curious if anyone had some guides on how to add more variation or even how to evolve the bass sounds more?

Perhaps i’m looking in the wrong area, but i feel like i want to make some sharp 1-2second sounds, probably pad that just scream at the end of each 3rd Bass, as our tendency is to make 5Bar bars, 2 Variant loops.

ANYWAY!

Anyone got an idea? would love the assistance, and happy to share whatever i know should anyone be interested in giving me a hand.

My production kit:-

DAW (Ableton, latest version)

MacPro (Decked out)

4Channel Sound Card

Axion 49 Key (Keyboard/Midi)

APC40 (More using for live gigs)

Launchpad (Using for level checks/as a monitor mainly)

Monitors (Couple A2s)

Primarily Synth VST (Albino 3)

I think you need more parts to your tracks… most of them are just playing the loop for 5 mins with a few things on top.



have a listen to a few big breaks tracks or even the prodigy/chems to see how often breaks and changes happen.



The How to sound like the prodigy tutorial would give you a lot of ideas especially on creating more powerful drums and interesting dirty synths
