Hey guys I made these two songs and haven't been on this forum in a while so I figured I'd post something by sharing some stuff I recently made.  The first one I posted, Midnight Racer, has done a lot better than my newer one that I posted which kinda sucks because I like my new one a lot better but I guess that's how it goes sometimes.

Inspired from Griz, let me know what you think

Here is a track I have been working on for a while now, but there is one thing that is keeping me from finishing the song:

I cannot figure out what to do for the drop.

I have tried countless things, and I just cannot work out what to do.  If you guys have any suggestions I would be more than willing to try them, and post what I accomplish for each suggestion as long as it makes sense in the song (no big room house or trap though).

This is a sound that is actually very easy to make, but many people seem to struggle making it.  The Flume sound that I'm talking about is at 3:20 in Some Minds

Method 1:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Make some white noise, and cut off all frequencies below ~350 Hz (change this depending on how much noise you want).  Then make a basic sine wave and put it on a low note so that it makes a sub bass.  Then put a bitcrusher on the sub bass, and downsample the sound a bit.  Then cut off all of the audible low frequencies, so you are just left with the high pitched noise.  The sub bass is only there as a carrier for the high pitched downsample noise (there is probably a better way to do this).

Layer these two sounds together and you have the first way to make the Flume sound.

Method 2:

For the second method I used a Fruity Free Filter, and some white noise.  First get the white noise and put a filter on it.  Make this a high pass filter, and turn up the Q (or equivalent knob) very high, but not quite at the max.  Next bring the Frequency of the high pass filter up to around 8000-16000, the only difference here is the pitch that you want.

Personally I prefer the first method more, as you can adjust the individual white noise and the high pitched noise separately.  If you have any better ways to do this, I would love to know.
