I make drum & bass which I upload on www.soundcloud.com/1 shibumi. I don't submit (often) to NG anymore, but feel free to use whatever I have posted here. But you should know that I've gotten a lot better!

The Audio Portal DnB section is shit. A large, smelly, pile of shit with a few gems hidden in it. But mostly shit.

I request that it be obliterated, then restarted with a MUCH higher standard.

You don't know how many songs I've just had to vote 2 or lower on, and how many reviews I've left explaining that "this song isn't drum & bass" and how to make real drum & bass.

Honestly, this does bother me that much. Poor nubs like I used to be are gonna go to the audio portal and try to learn dnb there, and get sucked into whatever shit they got goin' on over there... honestly, I think the drum & bass section now is like one of the worst parts of the audio portal. It's in horrible shape.

Rawr.

UPDATE: I'm even more pissed because whenever I try to point people in the direction of real DnB, they respond like "actually this is D&B" (when it's not) or "I don't see why I should do this or this." People here have no fucking idea what real DnB is.

UPDATE AGAIN. I just went through the whole DnB Top 50 5ing and 0ing songs to make sure GOOD ONES are on top... they should make me a mod for the DnB section :D I'd delete everything and tell good artists to upload stuff. I'd delete everything I came across that wasn't DnB.

UPDATE AGAIN. I'm re-reading this and i sound pretty harsh lol.


Comments

I feel the same way. Most of the other genres here have plenty great stuff, but there's only a few good dnb songs.

shit fuck fuck shitfds

i know right? we should re-start the dnb section. and kick out all the people who think they're making real dnb.

See, I love it when you actually say smart things as opposed to IRL when you make me feel bad.

I do agree with that though. NG must be the best at everything, without exception. And that includes DnB.

newgrounds dnb is and always will be shit lol

I agree...
Unfortunately this shit is made from people who lack at an alarming degree of professionalism, perfection, and - I guess - talent. It makes me shiver thinking about it... And it's smothered all over potentially fantastic audio artists.

yay more people who agree

idk, it might not be that they lack talent, because with practice you can achieve that... it's just that they do lack professionalism and care it seems. i doubt most people who submit dnb to newgrounds listen to pro dnb.

What do you call "real" DnB... I think my ears are still doin good and I am not retarded so I can point out what DnB is and what not :/ I DO ZEH DNB TOO!!! WANNA LISTEN FELLAS?! (actually nothing of what I have uploaded, it sucks ass, dont listen)

i can't define real dnb... i just know that most of what is being submitted is not real dnb. most of it seems thrown together and un-mixed and what not... there is no care for production anymore.

LOOOOOOL!

yes?

OMG I KNOW ITS SOO HARD TO FIND A DECENT SONG IN THERE
THE ONES AT THE TOP HAVE ONLY BEEN VOTED ON BY LIKE 3 PEOPLE

i just tend to stick with the best artists like nemesis theory, stan sb, axe fx, waterflame, zero bass, nal1200, paragon x9 and boney man(nah just kiddin i hate ur stuff)(nah just kiddin again ur stuffs pretty good(can u even do brackets inside brackets?))

yes you can put parentheses in parentheses, and you should check out Para (Koriigahn) or Shelter (Cornandbeans) if you think those guys are good.

btw paragonx9 isn't that good, and my name is now ackute lol.

Yeah... I agree with ya.

we should collab, i feel like collabing

I agree, but I try :P. At least you enjoy some of my works. Thanks man :)

I was about to respond like "who the eff are you" but then I remembered Stubborn Synapse lol.

That song was great man, keep more coming! It's people like you who can help fix the DnB section!
