Very cool overall.

The intro is kind of cool, nothin special tho.

I think you need some sort of drop when most of the drums come in B4 1:30ish ; it seems to be rather anticlimatic.

At 2:30 that drop works ok.

The song needs a more coherent structure IMO.

The sounds you have are cool. I like the synth line very much.

I wouldnt mind if the drums packed a lot more punch; but you may not have wanted that, I sense a sort of yr 2000 neuro type of feel, which is cool.

I do think that the synth need needs to be a lot more bass oriented, and cut through more.
An example of what I mean would be somethingy bassy like in Spor's The Resistance, the way that loud bass comes out so strongly. You can listen to it @ http://www.liftedmusic.co.uk/

It's a great start though I think. Looking forward to seing where this one goes.

industrial sounding drum n bass to me, i like the concept but on my crappy speakers it sounds a little dull, only a little. enjoying your use of synths, there are some great synth sounds in there for sure Smile maybe the drums need a little work as they sound a little loud in places.

definitely a different "industrial" feel to me, which i like.

cheers for this one mate.

Big cheers Cynik, hope all is well, knew tune, big treat's, heafty synth's, great ideas, that apr type synth rips it up, goes solid with them pad's over top, the headphone mixin might be the cause of this> but same same as the Munki's, in that i also aint hearin much if any low end bass, anyway tune so far sounds heafty,..rippin drum's, top notch filter jobby's as allway's, dam nice work man, heafty heafty, look foward to final product, cheers cynik.

Nice! I like the build up but not overally fond of the first main beat. It doesn't seem to sit right. I think it needs to be toned down a bit, in terms of complexity. The heavier beats in the second half of the track are great. The snare sound is spot on. But like others are saying, there is a distinct lack of low-end sounds. This would give it a much heavier feel - which is always a good thing. Also, I'd turn the bass up, especially in the second-half of the track. It sounds too quiet at the moment and the beats are dominanting it.

cheers peeps. yeh the sound is shit and the cause is partly the lack of proper monitoring as I was doing everything on headphones, also its straight outta reason alone, and its crap limiter, no eqing etc etc.

nice one cynik !
aldough i got some major prob , and thats the strange velocity changement of the track Confused

the kick is not loud enough and changes velocity ?

wicked concepts but structure could be done otherwise imo Frown

dunno bout this one , its a nice track but some mixdown issues and structure things should be fixed.

keep it upz Devil

interesting...

some cool stuff going on for sure...

i think the intro might be a lil long...

cool to hear those drums too :-p

i think teh sub deffinitely needs to be brought out a lot more...

sounds loike it might not be a totally finished project... but a very good start indeed...

Start of the Intro reminds of Concorn Dawn track and then love the progression although i have to agree with what people are saying that is a tiny bit too long but in a club people would be going nuts for this so wouldnt matter!

Synths are wicked mate.
Drums are pretty cool but IMO not as good as ur normal ones, think ur right 0- might be something to do with the headphone mixing. When i mix my tracks late at night the drums also come out sounding well different when i listen the next day.
Sub is quite low vol on this one, needs raising a little.

Production is good quality as always but i know there is definately more to come on this one.
