Like the intro man, great atmospherics!

There's a strange brrrr that comes with the snare (or so it sounds) that I don't really like, but as soon as the bassline kicks in you can't hear it anymore.

Good work!

Wonderful Big Grin

I like it a lot, and haven't much to comment except that I think the orchestral hits are a bit too much...

Love the sound of it, cool kick drums and phased snares! Bassline is lovely too, when it's introduced it gets you in a completely different rhythm but sounds very natural from the second time it plays. The drumloop that breaks sometimes kicks ass!! Good drum programming, really danceable and interesting. Nice preview bwoy!!! Bigup

new version, worked further till after the break and drop... (not too fond of the drop and the melody in it yet, will still need work, cuz i want this to be a true killer!) Sped it up, like saphir said on breakz.be Smile (does idd sound better like this) and did some adjustments on sound and clearity of samples (I'm keeping the orchersta stabs, they make the drumlines sound sped up at some points, cool effect imo Big Grin )...

same link as above: http://users.pandora.be/peter.gabriels2/...0Witchcraft.mp3

again let me know your comments!
& big thanks!

My fellow council members, this choon is now officially charged for being a baaaadd motherfucker Big Grin

I like what you did to it but it needs some more refinements. The first part is too long, it gets boring after a while. And the orchestral hits too (am blocking them out of my hearing right now).

For the rest there's one thing you need for the ultimate atmosphere in this track. Take your broomstick and portable MD recorder and fly to the nearest medieval village and record the angry farmer wives that hysterically scream 'Witch! Witch! Burn!' and put that in the quiet part in the middle Big Grin
Or you could sample a movie or something ofcourse and leave the broomstick in the garage.

Whispering voices saying 'she's a witch, a witch' or something would be nice too Big Grin

Enough bull I really like this, work it out mate!!
