imo you should go for 1 definitive theme, it seems to me (to me) that there's some different themes going on in this one song.. I like the drums, although they could use some more variety. can't tell anything about eq'ing, laptop speakers fucking me over here Big Grin

anyway, keep it going (btw like the piece at 4:00 or so)

oh and work out that melody with perhaps some other extra sounds, I think there's a good idea in it, but the sound needs some beefing up, some extra elements.

nice tune man , but in parts disapointing , the overall structure and beats sound nice , but everything seems to be in the wrong place for me , i think it would be better if the second breakdown with the distorted bass was the main part of the song , cause that was what got my attention !!!!

like i say the i liked the drums and i think the sctatching sample went pefectly with the tune , i did not think i liked the german speaking sample , but most probberly cause i cant speak german , ha ha !!!!!

at the start the synths need beefing up a bit , quite old skool sounding , which is not a bad thing , nice arrangments in places , lots of variations , 8 out of 10 for me , keep at it !!!

Pretty choatic structure, a bit disorientating for me. Doped The main synthline at the start sounds outta tune to me. Not sure about that Amen - heard that pattern too many times. In fact, I think I've got the same wav sample myself!

Some of the melodies later on also sound out of key with the other melodies... you might want to have another look at them.

The best part of this track is definitely from 3.03 to 3.27 when you use that scratch sample with the beats! Rinse Awesome.

The ghosts on some of the break need work. The structure is way too complex, you could do things much more simple and get a better track out of it. That lead sounds nice and the melody is fine, but that doesn't fit into the track, it's to dreamy and too much computer game sound. After the drop at 2:30 the track changes totally, this is much better, change the first part (between intro and drop) to match this part and your track will get a much higher score. That breakdown at 3:49 really ruins the atmosphere and it's completely weird. Again the game-soundtrack synth which is not good in this track. This track sounds very schizophrenic, a nice and friendly track witch switches into a dirty mean son of a bitch from time to time. I think you better stick to 1 style.

Nice flow of ideas, keeps it intresting. I find the break around 2.19 is a bit too much though, made me feel a bit disapointed.
