This has potential.
In my personal opinion - and please don't take any of this the wrong way because this is constructive - the drums are all wrong.
A punchy amen break would fit better than this military-DnB-style snare you have going. Just listen to your other samples and play around a bit.
The 303 is good, but should probably be used as a sideline more than the bassline itself. Once again, my personal opinion.
This track could use a bit of thinking in the direction of something more liquid, a bit more gentle. The drums and aggressive 303 bass sort of take away from the beautiful melody you have created in the background.
It also seems a little like you aren't one for structure. This is perfectly fine, keeps your audience guessing, but use it in moderation. I found myself lost in your track. The only definite was the intro.
You don't have to take any of this advice on-board. It is your baby. It's a great track. I'm just giving you my idea of making it that tiny bit better.

Lovely melodies in this. Very spacey. I'm a little more keen on the snare than Darkstar - I don't think it's too bad. However, I don't like it when it gets cut up tho - that's a strange effect that hampers the natural flow of the beats.
Bass stabs are pretty good, they've got a full, rounded sound. Not sure if it totally fits the style of the track tho. But I still like them.
Pretty good levels throughout - no major problems there. Overall production quality is pretty good. The only slight issue is that it sounds a little crowded in there sometimes, like there's probably 1 or 2 too many synths and effects in there. But that's nothing to have sleepless nights about.
Keep up man, cool experimental stuff.

yes thanx.
both of you have expressed thoughts that I have had, and Im sure its no accident that we have the same thoughts.
I do however like the snare.
also I have noticed the lack of interest my stuff gets from the majority on this site and I'm sure theres a good reason why, so I am thinking of using my time pursuing sumthing more lucrative like learning Spanish.
Im going to Perth ozz soon for 3 months so thanks a lot for your help lads and TOM thanx for always taking the time. 
rock on

No probs mate, my pleasure.
I think there's probably two reasons why your tunes haven't provoked the interest that they should on this website 1) they are really different from most dnb tunes and a lot of people might actually not have much to say about them, 2) the sheer volume of tunes you post. This website is all about improving your tunes and reposting but the reality is that people will inevitable give you less and less response the more you post, particularly if the tracks are uploaded in quick succession. Shame really, but true. Don't stop producing tho man! If you enjoying doing it and you're improving your skills, who cares what anyone thinks? Rock on indeed ol' pal.

interesting start to a tune. Quite like the intro break, but not over keen on the bass. The second break is a bit week and I'm not over keen on the phaseing effect on it. I actually quite like this track, but just don't like the bass sound... The synth is really unusual for a d'n'b track, but it does sort of work.
I disagree with with the comment saying you should have an amen, keep the break and get rid of the phase.
Nice tune brov, even if it is a bit unusual.
Enjoy Perth. I lived there for 3 months. nice place. Don't speak much spannish there though
