I honestly can not find any good dubstep these days. I feel like its the same for all the other people who like Electro House and House even Trance. Its all starting to change. I'm not a big fan of the new sounds and styles. I know genre's will grow overtime, but I like the original starters of all these genres, they were really pleaseant to my ears, now It just all sounds like crap to me. I know that spinning top 100 is business, but my god the top 100 all sounds the same to me!!! I think dance music is becoming mainstream which wouldn't be bad thing but it just sounds so horrible to me. Its like when T-pain and Akon took over "rap and hip hop" with their autotune style. What sucks is I live in Idaho which means the only people that like modern music only like the VERY NEW stuff. Aka the Crappy stuff.
Anyways I decided I want to start producing my own stuff and slow down on the Live DJing events because my selected tracks are essentially not wanted here. I know very little about producing. I've watched tons and tons of videos, and I really wanna start start making my own tracks and spreading them to places where they would be considered cool and unique and not so critisized by ignorant people who think Skrillex started dubstep hahaha.
I know how to work Reason very well from a very long time ago. How ever I have no clue whats good and easy to use now adays. I am a little bit behind on producing technology vs live dj technology.
Basically what I am asking is for tips how to produce(IE. Typical structure patterns for Dubstep), what programs(LFO friendly), and what kind of basic controller I would for a small budget.
Also if anyone is nice a enough to give me a free copy of reason 6 or 5 I will love you for ever haha which I highly doubt, but hey its worth the effort!!!!
P.S Do I need an external sound card to produce music through software? If so would my Traktor Kontrol S4 work? It has a built in sound card...???
If you have any usefull information to help, or any thing along the lines of this post let me know. I am kinda going through a rough time right now with music stuff down here. Any help is appreciated. Sorry if I sound like a looser haha I am really in need.
Thanks.
