i would change the intro break into something more floating - something different

the synth sound that comes in at 0.16 needs something - so i like the idea of that synth - but he sounds a bit odd and doesnt fit to the bassline imo !

overall - funny ideas (especially the synth line - but it really needs some better eqíng /reverb/ and probably some other things) - and the drums need more power and pressure !

cool.
soom nice ideas.

i quite like the bass.

th beats need a bit of work on the mix side of things. the bottom needs to hit a bit harder too.
try watch a beats eq tutorial, they help.

the resonance on the synth later in the track is too high for me.

all said n done this track had me nodding my head in parts fro sure, but maybe its a bit too "busy"
sometimes less is more.
or maybe try dynamic mixing where you adjust sample velocities as other samples join in and out.
some excellent ideas in this, just needs to gel together more.

I think Seven Gun has hit the nail on the head with his review. Totally agree.

I'd also add that the levels need quite a bit of work. For instance, the synths often come in really loud compared to the beats, especially during the last third of the track. The beats kinda got lost. You need to try and get a nice balance of sounds and levels in there.

Like Seven, I also liked the basslines. But there's too many melodies and different things going on. Less is often more, for sure.

Nice track, but still needs some work.

Yo lead:end

Liked a lot of the tune man but felt quite a bit of it didn't sit very easily with itself. The synth line clashes quite badly with the bass for example in the first section. Maybe try a call n answer thing between the 2 parts?
When the bass is on its own the tune feels much more coherent. The synth /bass combo do work far better later in the tune from about 3:40 onwards though.
Still think the beats need to sit up the mix a little above the synths.

Good melodies though and I did enjoy the tune. Just a bit of a remaster required imo. Good work!!
