Very musical, what I like, but I think you can hardly call it drum n bass. The percussion sounds like you just put it in to have some kind of rhythm, not to give it a DnB feel, and there is nog real bassline with a DnB feel either.
Apart from that: rhythm should be a lot louder, and so should be the bassline.
Nice melodies n shit.

It's dnb alright, in a Kosheen kinda way.

Very strange song, lots of work must have gone into it! With vocals and everything Big Grin

I find the drums a bit disappointing, they sound a bit sparse and empty.

The piano sounds horrible to my taste, sorry but that really doesn't fit, way too much attack and harshness on it, try a softer sound (Fender Rhodes fi, that would fit the track perfectly Wink )

Also the bass has too much attack imo. For the rest it's a really nice chill track, I like the vocals and the flow of the tune.

Exactly my point. And what has Kosheen in it's tracks that's DnB: not the dark atmosphere or anything, just the percussion. I would call Kosheen a breakbeat collective, with some of their tracks being up tempo, not DnB Tongue
