"UNITY" song scored for The Sounds of Blackness

This is my third remix of this song, I got the lyrics accapella , used sonar included samples for drum beats (mashed up about five) and played keys, strings and bass.  This song was supposed to be the dub step remix and there is a "wobble bass" at :40 so technically, this is the dub step remix of this song.  It's a work in progress so input appreciated!

    Hey Shawn - the track is very nice and the mix is pristine etc but you've got to get a little crazy if you're going to call it dubstep. See 1:35 on this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXO-jKksQkM

    I don't know much about dub step, but overall, this sounds good on my system.  The beats and the vocal are well produced and performed.  Others will have to step in here and comment on the genre, but this is on the way to being a good song.

    All the best,
    Lynn

    Thanks guys! I'm thinking it's the 1 dubstep mix, I'm having a great time working on this. For the first time I used The Pentatgon Vocorder---NICE!

    The wobble bass was from MASSIVE. I'm still waiting to hear what The Sounds of Blackness & their producer think, it's not dubstep but I do like it!



    Thanks Again,

    Shawn

    this is great, Shawn, like all your stuff. mix is tight and slick. i see why you want to call it dub-step; i would put it in the genre too as the larger-than-life encompassing bass qualifies it along with the samplings 

    really love how you treated the vox samples and how it outros out with them.  breaks at :34 and 1:43 are sweet.

    dig it!!!

    Just got word from the producer...the song isn't aggresive dance enough so I will have another shot!
