r/dnbproduction

Hey everyone,

I want to start by saying that I really don't want this to sound like some annoying advertisement. We are just genuinely looking for new cult members to join our circle because we absolutely love music, especially drum and bass, and want to share that passion with more people.

We started a global Drum and Bass Discord server called DNB Cult, and we would love for you to become part of the family. Don't worry, we don't worship ancient deities, our only religion is the 174 BPM baseline.

We really wanted to build a space that feels less like a strict, corporate networking group and more like a warm, supportive family. We have members from all over the world, ranging from seasoned veterans who have been producing for years, to people who just downloaded their first DAW, to absolute superfans who just love the music.

Inside the server, our experienced producers genuinely love helping out. If you are stuck on a mix or need an honest opinion on a work in progress, we have got your back. There is no gatekeeping here, just pure support. We are big on lifting each other up, so we actively hype each other's releases, share promo ideas, and back each other on socials.

You also do not have to be a producer to be here. If you are just a fan, we want you too. You will get access to exclusive, unreleased dubs and demos that you won't hear anywhere else.

On top of that, we recently gave birth to our own record label, Baked Bass Records, which is the younger sibling of Full Phat Records. We started it to give our community's music the platform it deserves. Just to be completely transparent, you do not have to join the Cult to be part of the label. If you just want a home for your music but prefer to stay in the shadows, you can absolutely just send us your demos directly with no strings attached.

If you are looking for a safe, funny, and incredibly positive space to share your love for DnB, the gates are open. We would honestly love to have you.

Sacrifice your demos to our email: bakedbassrecords@hotmail.com

Much love, and see you on the other side.

Every second post on here is "LISTEN TO MY NEW SONG!!!!", flaired as Feedback Request but not actually wanting feedback.

Would be cool to have more focus on posts regarding the actual production of drum and bass, instead of just a constant stream of self promotion, like r/edmproduction.

So I use ableton on my windows desktop with 990s. And then on my macbook air with 770s. Sometimes sony mdr v6s.

And every single time I make a song with the 990s it sounds so crisp and clean while I’m producing but then listening to the song on any other speakers or headphones it sounds so bad, muddy, and overall underwhelming.

Then on the macbook with 770s or sony mdr v6s. They’re all great and sound exactly how I want them to sound.

I have a feeling the 990s are just so dang crisp that everything else sounds bad or the high end bump plus open back gives it the illusion of a good mix?

I think the obvious solution is to just use the 990s casually and stick with the other headphones.

Thoughts?

Anyone have idea ideas on how to replicate the heavy non-tinny chunky amens used in Marvellous Cains productions, as well as Splash’s Babylon? I use Ableton and I’ve been trying but I can’t get that same smooth organic analog tone. I’m sure by now there are ways to replicate.

Any help appreciated! Thx.

Not really from this space although I love to produce all types of bass music, is my style unbearable or abrasive in any way? My newest track is just something quick I came up with but ive literally only started making 170-175 bpm this last week.
