you ripped the name from Red Dwarf!
Too much bass on this one. Becomes repetitive after a while. Drums need ghosts, they don't roll really.

fx sound nice on the intro. seems a little bare tho. the beats need a lot more too em. far too simple for me. layer a better snare and kick n turn the hat down. the bass riff n sample are good but need summat to carry em. would like to hear the finished version mate! got some good things going on here

intro builds up pretty well, bass could do with turning down a notch, too over-powering, especially through headphones, drums sound a little bare too, could do with more layering, structure is good, fills, builds etc are sound, no complaints there, overall production is pretty good but tune does get a little repititive after a while.
track def has potential, like the guitary sounds at about 3:50 too.
lol aint seen red dwarf in ages, should keep the title.

Interesting beats man. Got a really nice groove to them. Gotta say, I'm likin this whole vibe a lot. Can't remember hearing anyhting like this on a dnb tune. The mix needs a bit of work tho. Are using a compressor on the master? It's squashing the sounds a tad. Also, there's quite a bit of distortion and clipping, which isn't nice. If the mix was cleaned up this track would be excellent.

It could do with more sounds the build up right b.lines ok drums sound a bit reasonish, The style is more old school try a ragga vocal in there but for old school it's ok needs editing length is to long
you've got to do more work on this.

good track, smooth dnb, lots of mixtures, could bring the kick up alittle bit more, maybe filter it acouple times, add a mirror, or some sort,

good job
