Yeah, I'm feelin this Brucy. The kick still sounds a little strange - needs more thud I reckon - but it's a definite improvement on your previous mix, so bigs up for that.
The overall sound is original, I really like it. Very eerie with lots of darkish vibes. Maybe a tad too much reverb in there, which is slightly muddying the mix.
One thing that could take this tune to another level is an evil, low bassline. It doesn't really have a bassline at the mo. The bottom-end of the tune sounds a little sparse - that range could be nicely filled up with a dirty bassline. You've already got a sub in there, so this hypothetical bassline would occupy the low-mid range.
The beats are solid, especially the hi-hat work. I think they're excellent. And I love that very dark vocal-horn-like sound!
Good work brother.
Btw, did you want me to delete your previous version?

intro sounds ok man, nice beats and sounds, rolls alond very smoothly.... i think it needs a bass that cuts thru the mix, but all good.
thanks.

Nice one mate, I like the dark vibe and the athmos in here.
Totally agree with tomos to the hihat work. they give the drum lines loads of texture and make them special in a way.
What could be improved are some of the pad transitions, like the one in the very beginning at 0:07 just stops there.
The sub you added is alright but I think an evil rough bassline would be more interesting here…as long as it is not too overbearing.
Thanks for the reviews. I will work on another bass line. Saying that, I've just started another track... But then again, I do need to finish a track one day, don't I
Thanks again for your advice and giving the time for a listen.
It was ok, i guess. I liked the drums, but they were repetative.
The whole thing just felt like a soundtrack to something, like a background loop. Yeah thats what i was going for, the whole thing just sounded like a loop. It might have just been me, but there wasn't really a lot of bass in the song. Idk if it was just me though. It was cool, but just that. Cool. It didn't really feel like a whole song to me, just a loop for a game or something. 6/10
Anyways, keep it up, and i hope you improve this. But that's just my opinion.
Cheers, TechZK
hello mate how ya doin? Yeah I remember the original was reeeeaaaly long! like that intro beat actually like the kick / bass drum nice drive. i think just a little variation on that intro beat would be better (or should i say i'd prefer it there)
nice dark atmospheric sounds definately acheive the desired effect.
good point from Tomos, low mid section could have some dirtiness in there, bit more layering would make it sound that bit more "whole"
this is one of those hypnotic end-of-nighters 6am, lights are about to come on, give the crowd some griminess to finish off the night
