there is no definitive answer to an open ended question. what sort of house music? house styles are about what sounds you use, and their context.
listen to tunes you like, and compare to what you conjure up. just post a few names of ppl you like and start again.

Which compression would you use for the kicks and Hihats (with focus on Attack, Release, Ratio...) ?

It IS hard, cos people will tend to think there is some magic formulae or answer, but there simply is not... just time & experience...
perhaps the best tip I can give is to experiment with making tracks with ONLY the drums & bassline... if they sound good like that then that's half the battle.. and they SHOULD sound good like that... Everything else is Ear-Candy or Motif's in house..
OH IMPORTANTE!!!! - the closed & open hat DECAY is critical to the groove.

open too long? - the hat closes too late causing the groove to fall forwards...
open for not long enuff? - the hat closes too early & the groove fall backwards..
it's subtle but makes all the difference.

I had an idea for a script once. It's basically Jaws except when the guys in the boat are going after Jaws, they look around and there's an even bigger Jaws. The guys have to team up with Jaws to get Bigger Jaws.... I call it... Big Jaws!!!

Would you use "pumping"- compression (I donīt know, how to explain this..)? Iīm using the internal compressor of the 01V, do you have any tips ?
Thanks,

You have a Juno 106, no ? Donīt you think that the Juno sounds better than any Softsynth ?

the production on g-stone recordings is very different to the production on a tech house track fo example. the sound seems a lot more open and there seems to be a lot of space in the tracks. how would i process the drums for example?

If you want to do older style music, real analog is great because of the simplicity of the sounds and mix. Of coarse any soloed analog will sound fatter than a soft synth, but how many tracks have I done with just one instrument playing.... You have to work to get those old synths to sound good together in a mix. Reason lets you lay down complex stuff and is less harsh on the cpu than audio tracks are in Sonar or cubase. So I get more out my machine. If you are a non believer, I will post a clip on my home page for you to have a listen to. I'll be back and let you know when it's up. I aslo posted a set of tips in the Reason section to get full use of reasons mixing and sound production ability. I ganrentee the two songs I am woring on in it will be in stores soon!

Yes, thatīs it... Iīm into an older sound (I love Magneto ;-))... Somewhere between Deep and Tech-House ! I have a Demo-Version of Reason on my Mac, but Iīm still producing with Logic Platinum...
>>I ganrentee the two songs I am woring on in it will be in stores soon!
Ahh, good to hear... on which label ?
cheers from Madrid,
