well, it could be about owned hardcore
for instance, maybe the song is about gravel? in which case the lyrics could be
"if your hardcore is too wet, wait till it dries to lay it"
but then if the lyrics are about what one is then yeah, probably need to change it
"If you're hardcore and you know it, clap your hands"

Good shit! Love the intro and outro riff (the thing that appears to contain a lot of white noise. It might not though).

it did have a little but i added a little bit more using a white noise fx at about 5% volume (thats all it needed) it does seem to fit with the kick and bass imo

Sounds like it's a little low on (sub) bass, especially in the kicks, making them less powerful than they should be.

There is more than one kick? :P I agree the kick could benefit maybe from a cut around 200-300hz to make it sit better in the mix but that's purely my opinion. I wouldn't have mentioned it if Dante didn't though.

see thats where i kinda fall flat on my face production wise because i don't understand pretty much all of that side of production i've tried to learn (back when hp was still around) but i keep forgetting how to do it (my dyspraxia never lets me remember stuff like this) which is really shit i need to find out more about all this stuff and write it all down for future reference
i miss hardcore producer lol

Dopeman:
To be a little more specific than "sub bass", give the kick a boost around 40-80Hz. Just slap an EQ on that channel and take it up a little bit around that frequency interval. If there isn't much to boost down there on the kick, you can "cheat" with a sine pluck (quick decay) at B1 (~62Hz, since the track seems to be in B) and just play it on top of the kick. Do it right and your kick will be harder, better, stronger.

Probably not, but it's playing more than once ;p

Yet your tunes sound so much better than many other peoples'. You're doing fine.
I know how you feel though, but with what Dante said:
quote: at B1 (~62Hz, since the track seems to be in B)
I don't understand any of that lol. It's like maths to me.
