Please check out my new track 'The Second Tempress' and post your comments here!!!
Here's a tune I've been working on and off for a few weeks. Took a lot of work and tweaking in FLS but I'm really happy with it. I finally feel like I'm getting somewhere with this dnb lark now
Big, big thanks to a few of the big .be boys who gave me comments on an earlier version. The last two-thirds of the track have totally changed since then. Without their help it would have probably remained unfinished.
Anyways, all comments appreciated!!!!!

EZ Tomos
Intro's got your style all over it innit? Love it mate, really full sound with the strings n vocoder n reverb toms etc
Drops wicked, really nice orbital- esque reverse vocal goin on.
Drum production is very good, well compressed so it aint killed the dynamics. synth work is very good if a little too anonymous ie no really standout lead lines
Thought the breakdown at 4:15 could have been milked a bit more for a big build up.
These are minor gripes though mate n I had about 3 listens to make those.
It's a wicked tune, totally defines your sound at the moment man, nice one

Wow man... when I hear this I hear where our little collab could have ended... Sweet! The pads, the bass stabs, the vocals. It all fits.
Bass could have been a tad more upfront.

thomos, fuck dude. this is solid, i can feel it through the intro, very emotive and thought provoking, it definitely "sucks you in". Drums are solid as a rock, the vox make you want more, very seductive indeed, nice touch! Nice well thought bass sounds throughout, overall mate, something that should get signed. fa sure. big up!

stunnin melodies and harmonies to build the track,
i like the vocal sample its really nice and compliments the track well.
the drop wasn't quite what i expected but it's all good.
nice minimal vibez
i like it from the 3.30 mark where the the distorted, filtered mid sample comes in.
all in all a quality track

Thanks for the reviews fellas!!! You can always count on the .be family!! 
I'll try and reply to some of the points cos there's some really good ones there...
@ BINARY HAVOC. Yep, agree that I could have milked the 4.15 breakdwon more. It didn't really occur to me to do that 
but it's a suggestion I'm going to try to impliment in a future version which I'll upload to my new MySpace.
@ BATTLE DRONE. Yep, could knock the bass up a little.
@ GOONYBAG. I have no real idea how to get a tune signed but maybe I should try and start with this one?
@ STIFFER. Glad you like the track man!
@ SEVEN GUN. Yep, we gotta get a new collab going soon mate, no question... what about something with a dark dub-steps vibe?? It'd be something new for me and it's something you're already good at? Good suggestions on the sounds btw. Yeah, I don't even know what "Tempress" means, it was just a word that popped into my head when I was making it... perhaps I should call my new version of this "Temptress"??
@ PHILBEE. Ahhh mate, if it wasn't for your direction this tune wouldn't have been finished. Yeah, I'll try and extend the 2.00 drop a tad. Thanks again and I can't wait for this remix!!!

AH...GOTTA LOVE THE .BE RESPONCE!
hmm, that a bit wussy actually. oh well.
on jimmy's point....
i dont think you need to side-chain. just clone, then edit velocities down
so the new sound has more clarity and oomph.
i prefer dynamic mixing.
but i do agree about the grimey sound needing to rear its head a bit more.
@Tomos
yeah, a dubstep collab would be great.
potential for some really fresh sounds.
grimey brutal mixed with chicken soup for the soul....
hmmm, ideas are forming already.

Naahhh, its ok for blokes to hug. It's only when they start playing with each others willies that it starts getting a bit gay.

this is a fucking wicked tune.
mix could do with a little work
the grimey bass sounds really need bringing out.
and maybe some of the pads once its droped are too loud.
this is where i'd possibly try some side-chaining. Make the grimey sounds duck the pads slighty so they cut through.
but the stuff you're making is wicked mate....deffo got your style down.
keep it up

Ah, cheers Jimbo!! I was wondering when your review was gonna come... you should never doubt the .be family!! Yep, I'll do a little work on the bass and see how it sounds. We gotta collab on a tune for sure. Btw, when you gonna finish and upload those tracks you sent me a few weeks ago - "Open Eyes" and "Lightmare" - they are genuinely solid fuckin tunes. They'll go down a treat here!!

Tomos, nice things your dowing with the surrounding sounds, that voices are perfectly melted together witt the rest of the song. You sounds ar eall good in the mix, not to loud not too siilent
beats are oke, just the snare is a little too sharp, i think
nice production though
keep makin things like this
