Please check out my new track 'Smoke Circles' and post your comments here!!!

Spacey and a little less dark than my last few with an acrobatic bass line made from a custom Ableton rack instrument that I assembled. Hope you like it!

It's all too loud, sounds are fighting for space. Check your levels. The bass is really overpowered.

Imo the highs on the breaks fuck it up a little bit, perhaps tune em down?
as for the rest, I think (if I got it right) gets going in 03:00, while I would get it going in 02:00. could be personal taste, I dunno, but I think you stretched the buildup too much. Nice ideas

Cool opening beats, interesting pattern. Yeah, nice bassline too. Gets messy around 1.30 - too many weird SFX going off at once. The bass gets really, really loud around 1.38! You really need to sort the levels out there.

Like Battle said, the whole mix is too loud - it sounds as if you're try to make everything stand out. The effect of that is too ensure that nothing really comes through because all the sounds are fighting for space.

Nice track overall but I prefered your others.

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I made this one before I discovered that it is best to not record everything in stereo! I hear what you are saying about the mix too, its odd cause it sounded banging on my mdrv6 headphones, but terrible in my car...oh well. Better luck next time lol
