the first big snare hit made me shit my pants.
crazy edits, some nice ideas going on.
tune needs a synth of some kind tho.
i would make a nice screachy synth and write something to dance on top of the track. imo.
wouold double the quality of listen.
not bad tho.
peace.

interesting intro - sounds like those rumble sounds have a bit too much bass on them tho. drums sound nice - some cool ideas going on there. the sample gets drowned out a couple of times tho.

agree with the seven gun tho - it needs some synth to carry a tune.

anyways nice quality and intuative use of effects.

if it werent for the bass hits it would have been a great intro - love the placement of the spoken bit in the mix

woah gone crazy with the fx, I'd try and limit the drums as theres too extreme velocity changes

the drum programming is sick, nice use of reverbs. great edits follow, some venetian snares / aphex twin similarities (a compliment not meaning its a ripoff)

as mentioned, it needs at least one more strong instrument in there, I can see this is a drums oriented track, but it leaves an empty feeling after listening

feels you lost the ideas midway through

a nice choon altogether, if you keep working it do post the update

Great atmospherics in the build-up, sounds like a movie soundtrack or something. The opening beats are really working well, although the snare occasionally sounds like it is being over-layered a tad. Listen at 1.24 and 1.34 to see what I mean. It happens quite a lot through the track.

This is not really my style. There's good parts to it but as a whole the track just seems a bit all over the place. There doesn't seem to be one direction with it - it goes from being really dark, to sounding almost Orb-like (particulary with the spoken word vocal). Also, you might need to tweak the levels on the beats a bit because they go from loud to quiet and it's a bit disorientating.

But like I said, there's some really good parts in this track, so I hope I don't come across as being overly critical!

Well no one has rely sed this is not a DnB track.
I am happy about that.
I don't know what I'm going to do about getting a synth in here but I'm going to experiment.
thanx very much for all your help. Happy

Tomas
the snare fazzing is intentional.

Great track! Interesting style. Sadly I can't judge on the bass element (Amplifier went cuput). I tike the intro a lot, also the structure. The only think I don't like is the snare at some points, it sounds like it overpowring everythin, lowering the volume should do it. Also do I hear the TCAmen? :p
