Hey you! For a small donation I will make your track as loud and transparent as possible. You will recieve the finished mixdown in full version and everything else comes after that. If you do not like what I've done - you don't send a donation. Easy as that. Hit me up for details via Chat/DM. We will 100% figure something out that suits your needs. Why am I doing this? I am currently practicing resolving issues in strangers mixdowns. As there is time involved on my side I think that this is as fair as it can get. No bullshit guarantee. Turnaround time might be a bit higher than in professiona ..read more

Well hello there everyone, it has been a while but here we are... It has been 9 months since we had the last Techno Production Challenge. I am very sorry for people who wanted it to last a bit longer but unfortunately life got in the way. I became the father of a beautiful little girl and spend all the free time I had spending quality time with my family. As time went by I kept thinking about these challenges and how fun they are. As a participant I loved these challenges to death but as an organizer I hated them so much! It took a lot of work to keep track of everything and the longer we kep ..read more

I hear this sound quite a lot in techno but I have no ideia how to get it, it's this arpeggiated sound that plays throughout this track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJ1gJ6t847I thanks!! submitted by /u/pedro_branco [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

What do you think about the Behringer Neutron? It seems incredible value for such a low price. I can get it used for 200€. I was thinking, after 10+ years in the box, to get some new inspiration and try out some hardware. I think the neutron and korg sq1 could make some great music.... Any opinions on the Behringer? Or any other/similar suggestions? submitted by /u/seelachsfilet [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

What do you think the best way to process hi hats is? Sometimes I use some fine EQ to de-ess them but it turns into a comb FX. Any ways to dirty them but keep them bright? Layering ? submitted by /u/Antique-Gap-3068 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hey I'll be in Tokyo this week and next, looking to connect with anyone based there. Keen to find out where one should go to shop for used hardware synths/mixers and the like. I mainly make dub techno, so definitely looking to hunt for any vintage effects. Also appreciate any recommendations for places that play interesting music too. submitted by /u/submersiblesounds [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Just got feedback from a label I respect and they told me that my tracks could use some more suspense. My question is what are your best tips and tricks for creating suspense? submitted by /u/ikramshinwari [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

How do you find inspiration for creating techno? I often get the thought that today there are too many of us, too much music, too many platforms and everything blurs and disappears in the crowd... submitted by /u/Hubert249 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hey, I'm wondering if there are any producers on here that know of ways I can create sound FX to play on top of parts of build ups that arent as epic as they should be. I've spent years analyzing my favorite mixtapes by some of my favorite DJs (Chus, Ninetoes, Hot Since 82, Dennis Ferrer, etc) and many times they are throwing in accapella samples to make a track that is good but repetitive sound way more dynamic and just better. I've also observed that at times they loop part of the build up and throw in sounds of, in one case, race cars/airplanes going by, but in other cases there are clearl ..read more
