New to music production, currently learning Ableton. This is my first bass track i've made. Good learning curve. After exporting it the first time it sounded great in the home studio, but when i mixed it into another track Dj'ing it was definitely lacking volume. Spent the evening learning about compression, limiters, saturators and all the rest of it to try and get it a bit more popping and louder. Seems to of worked. Could of sat there for months trying to figure out how it works and get it perfect, but I'm happy to to put it out there, move on and learn more moving into the next project. I made this on Labour weekend camping down the murray riverat you guessed it.... Neils Bend.  

Neils Bend - ROAMr

Orignally from Chirstchurch, New Zealand. Been on the move for 15 years and now settled in Albury in New South Wales. I've Dj'd since I was a young buck, influenced by 90's hiphop, jazz and mostly UK bass music. Decided its time to teach myself music production so I've picked up Ableton Live and a push to go with it. Lots to learn but going at my own pace.  Its never to late to learn something is it ??? haha will soon find out. After years of going by the alias of oBque ive decided its time for name change to reflect more on myself, hence the name Roamr.

<<<< CAMPBELL BIO >>>>
Melbourne/Naarm based DJ and radio host Campbell has long been honing his craft, calling on his UK roots, to entrench himself as a staple of the local bass music scene. As host of PBS 106.7FM program The Blend, which recently celebrated 21 years of broadcasting, the weekly program has become an integral part of the city's rich musical fabric. Inside Campbell showcases a diverse mix of electronic music across the heavier end of the spectrum. 

His love for music and future direction was cemented as a key member of the crew behind the Red Bull Music Academy (RBMA) in Melbourne '06. Soon after he established the Blend Corp. label to distribute the material of renowned artist Wax Tailor (FR), among others. Campbell's connection and contribution to the greater music community saw him join the CDR team, which ran Melbourne producer meetups, and continues through mentoring announcers and DJs at PBS. The Blend has a strong emphasis on supporting new talent, along with the more established, featuring weekly guest mixes and interviews from both local and international artists. 

Promoter endeavours with his More Styles events, mixed bass music nights at Section 8, have seen him host shows for UK luminaries such as Digital, Djinn, LMajor and Stretch. Known for his eclectic taste, sets vary depending on the night in question and he is not one to be put into any box or category, comfortably slotting into diverse lineups covering drum’n’bass, jungle, footwork, dubstep, grime, halftime, UK garage and beyond. Residencies past and present include Section 8, Howler, Workshop, Lucky Coq and Black Cat, along with regular spots at clubs such as Revolver Upstairs, Miscellania and Sub Club. A selection of other highlights include; The Blend’s 20 year anniversary show headlined by Special Request (UK), performances at Melbourne Music Week, Red Bull 1800 Doof, plus Mani Festo, LMajor, Swamp81 (Loefah, Chinese Daughter, ), Kloke, Digital, Pangaea, and Djrum support shows.
