How To Bass 124: Hardstyle Kicks

I get what you mean but I donestly don't think you are not in a professional position. A couple of things:

First, if that reese sounded like ass, your comparison would be fine but from a LISTENER perspective, SeamlessR's hardstyle kick sounds really solid to me and no different than any other hardstyle kick I would expect to hear in a hardstyle track. It may not be perfect to hardstyle producer standards but it is far from amateurish.

Second, you are no professional hardstyle producer. I know your tracks and your YT channel. I am even subscribed to it. You are a good tutor but your productions are on an intermediate level. You are no beginner, far from it but you are also far from "professional". If you are a pro, where are your releases? Why don't you have links to your Bandcamp or Beatport pages? Where are your DJ bookings? Why do you not post under your producer name and promote yourself? How come you only have 150 followers on SC and 12.000 on YT? Why does your YT channel mostly consist of tutorials and not finished songs or EPs? Because you are a tutor. You make tutorials and offer lessons. You make preset packs and show people how to make sounds and that's alright. My point it that SeamlessR also does that. longer than you, more succesfull than you and more "professional" than you. He knows a ton about sounddesign because he is making music for more than 10 years and he is ahead of most of us.

Lastly, you comparing yourself to Koan and Noisia from a point of understanding and critiquing genre sound-design is pretty ridiculus. You are not on their level, not even in the hardstyle genre. If fucking Headhunterz or Frontliner shows up and tells everyone that SeamlessR's kick is amateurish, that's a different story.

Sorry if that sounded like a rant, I don't want to be aggressive but you should stick to your trade and keep it low with these kind of comments.
