Very entertaining stuff, but again it sounds like you listen a lot to mixes because you made a couple of different themes and you slowly switch between them. Easy on the stereo and reverb on you basses. Some basses could do with more sub action (which should deffo be mono). Try to work on a track which is more based around 1 theme, with an intro, a buildup, a main part, a drop and a second mainpart and eventually an outro. Your current track sounds like a labyrinth filled with all kind of goodies which sound very nice on their own, but you're completely lost amongst them (especially the end is a bit of a chaos).

Like that synth sound. Very nice. The drums pattern isn't bad, but I think the snare is a bit poor, Sounds like a bad sample. I must agree with the previous comment. You have really have about 2 or 3 tunes in this! They could all be good as well. Really like the tune in the 4-5 min area... I reckon rewrite em all. Like that synth around 6.10. Get some better drum sounds and you have some potential for a few good tracks. Happy

Bloody hell, thats a well long tune! nice1

Around 0:30 the drum pattern has a snare echo sound panned all the way over to my right ear. This sound is distracting.

The intro kick drum is a bit muddy, I don't think there is enough separation between the kick and snare patterns.

I dig the ambient sounds in the beginning sections, pretty haunting feel, very cool.

At 1:45 I think the kick is a bit heavy and overwhelms the beat. After the drop the drums comes in at an illogical time compared to the main bass. I think you should give the bass a full measure or two so that the drums come in on the beat.

I like the bass sounds around 3 minutes, really cool in an odd way.

I agree with the earlier comments about a consistent flow for the track, it seems like a lot of good ideas pieced together, but no direction.

I'm also trying to break into DnB as well, what you have so far seems promising Smile
