Just finished my first dubstep/electro track ever, so feedback is needed and always appreciated! Hoping this can go into an EP I'm working on :D

Great track! I love the mix, it's super clean and clear! You're composition is on point as well. I really do love the leads/synth's you came up with! May I ask what plugin(s) you use to create those? Also what are you doing to get those leads to come out so smooth in the mixing and mastering? They're so clean and punchy and can really hear each punch of the arp or layers you're doing. I really digging this track and looking forward to hear more!

If there was one thing I would like to hear change in the track is at :16 and 1:36 where the piano/string melody starts after about 16 bars it does get a bit repetitive. I would suggest to use those keys and chords to build more into your riser. It would create more tension and really bring something into you're drop!

Excellent job!

Hey thanks man!! And really thanks for the feedback, if there's one thing I'm working on it's my builds and getting away from being too repetitive, so I'll work on that a bit more.

As for the synths, everything you can hear is made from serum alone, and I created most of of the leads/basses. Just one or two of those I used a preset and changed it a bit.

And the quality of the mix is by far my biggest fear but I'm glad this one came out nice and clear! I recently bought some Yamaha hs8 monitors and they put my mixes on a different level than before.

I'm glad you liked it!

EDIT: I used sylenth for some additional boosts to my leads and basses but that's it
