Please check out my new track 'Could this be the love' and post your comments here!!!
this is the reproduced version of the old idea i threw up last week.
this track only runs up untill the second break down, where the track stopps is where i am intending to add the quite part that leads to the second drop,
there are a few elements that i dont know weather to keep or discard. i would like your opinions on keeping the intro guitar stabs, the vox and the bassline at 2.18 with the vox over the top, i have heard them too much.
all other comment welcomed!!

This is my first post, and I dedicate it to comment your track.
I might have many opinions, I´m not an expert of any kind,
just a frequent DnB listner 
Please excuse my poor english, but i´ll try to be as clear as i can.
I really liked the potential of your last version and the new one sounds much better when it comes to mastering the levels and so on.
I´m sitting and comparing the both versions, and I have to say I liked the more sharper intro guitarrs on the earlier version.
Also I think you can throw in an "Love....love" to make it more vivid
At 1:28 I personally would want to hear the bass you had on earlier version (but in the much better way you have in the end of this version 
)
At 1.17 dont go down with the bass so it just rolls nicely into the downbeat at 1:23, or maybe earlier, I just feel it disturbs the flow a little bit (from a dancers poin of view
)
Overall a much better version, can´t wait to hear the final result!

my first review.
i dont produce so i cant give technical hints and tips.
all i can say is this tune is ok. the bass is cool but it sounds a bit too echoey for me.
not bad

easy now, the drums sound much better on this one - definately sounds much better than the first one. tbh tho i preferred the other one cos it kept the vocals going on after the drop - with the love love love etc. btw check the effect u got on the guitar at the start - i dunno if its a reverb or a delay but what u need to do is to turn down the mix of it - the guitar sound seems to be increasing in volume after the actual guitar sound.
anyways - reverb! take that stuff off your drums and the bassline!!! that effect on those are never a good idea unless u really know what u r doing. it gives the affect of pushin a sound into the background. tbh i never use that effect on the main dominant sounds in a mix - u should only use it for samples or ambient sounds. little on vocals is ok tho.
the preview b4 this had a lot more life in the mix - yeh it wasnt mixed properly but it sounded more in ya face - add more bite to the mix by adding more layers to your drums, maybe splitting the bass signal up and distort one of them a little and take the reverb/delay/spacial effects off the drums and the bass. a little maximising can help adding punch.
dont give up on this one - got loads of potential

When I´m making a track I get tired of the intro very soon, keep the stabs though. The stabs could do much better with some slight EQ adjustments (they need a bit more highs and a bit less lows imo).
The deep bass is still overly present, the first impression is fear. I like your style, it has commercial potential. The vox at 2.18 don´t get enough space, please use sidechaining on the bass to let them come through. Or use the lyrics on a part where there is only the low bass and not the middle one.
Repeat the guitar stabs to get an overall theme and drop the "wiggling" bass (starts from 3.17 not diggin it).
What program are you using?

The beats have a got a nice fresh sound but lack punch and balls. They really need to be a bit harsher and edgy. Also, why have you taken out the vocals, "Love, love, love", etc, on the chorus?? That was one of the most important elements which made your previous preview so stunning!! By removing them you've taken some of the soul out of this track, a bad mistake, imo. Shinyuri hit the nail on the head in his review.
The basslines are sounding really good and funky still but a tad too much echo. Again, they could do with a rougher sound.
Btw, I think the guitar intro is excellent. It really blends in with the whole vibe - I'd actualy like to hear it later on in the track.
Still not the finished product, imo, but still got some great elements there!!

the bass that falls on 1 after the beat drops is spread out to much.the groove is nice though.i like the synth sounds but try to pull them together with a lite distortion or may some tape saturation and a compressor.use the vocal more threw out the track like the part when it drops out it feels like it cut out half way.maybe chop words and add a 16 bar delay with a feedback of 90.slam it on right over the word you want. you know man like a dub effect.maybe get some rast samples too.

lovely soulful vox, maybe turn it up a bit, cant quite hear it. The drop is warm, forward moving. I fucking love it! Maybe change up the bass with some more bass type breaks (some dirty reece to really nail people). the bass synth sound at 2.15 or so seems a little off putting and obtrusive, although when it goes backi nto the main drop works, personal taste i guess. Not sure about the vox coming back in, maybe leave em out. Drums sit nicely in the mix. Nice tune dude, really dig it,has a good warmth to it.

Clownstep 4 life? ;]
nice intro, but I don't like that kind of basses, so I can write only about the technical side of the tune [;.
Nice master without distortion, nice arrange, but I think the tune doesn't change at all.
keep on working, I must go i can't take anymore clownsounds (only @ the partys 
)
no offence of course it's just my opinion [; everybody do what they want and like :-)
cheers, skeez

the stabs bring the hook in nicely,
i love the break its a very clean sound, this track is pretty legendary, the bass dosnt quite fit the key you took before though, deliberatly detuneit upwardes by about a few semi tones but keep the bass pumped on the EQ.
the track has some good fills which i like but the bass always hits the same middle section which gets annoying as the song goes on.
the vocals fit nicely into the mix, well structured drum programming but a few more fills would be good different hat placements etc.
overall the track works well and the different bass leads compliment one another nicely the drums wrap it up in a parcel and the whole thing is a song well done!keep up the good beats
