Please check out my new track 'Eye of Horus' and post your comments here!!!
Here is a slightly darker tune from me. I'm definitely feelin it but I know there could be some improvements... hence the welcomed opinions from your good selves.
I've already had some feedback on this from a few .be heads but I've not yet implimented any of the suggestions because my version of Massive is currently bolloxed unfortunately.
But I will reinstall it and then I can make the improvements.
Thanks guys, all feedback is appreciated and returned! Btw, I didn't use any fancy shit to produce this tune but if you wanna ask anything about it, feel free.

The intro sounded pretty tight.The build up to the lead was nice n smooth.I like the down ptich vocal sample.the drums hit nice n heavy and go well with the bassline.
The track showed nice progession and change but not stayed pretty focused.
The second half of the track dropped nice with a change in the drum pattern.It really hit nice and hard.
I think the Track is playable and would be a fun tune to DJ with.When I get a chance to donate I will be downloading this one.
easy boss! man this eqing is fukin tight as! ur engineering skillz r thru the roof! yeh definately a darker thing from u tomos, u been fuming about somink recently? i once did a dark tune cos i left my keys inside my house...
anyways, intro is sweet, the samples are nice as fook and the tune blends nice into the drop. was a bit iffy about those hihats in the intro - sounded too plain, could benefit from a filter or somink to introduce em, maybe just filter the whole drums wiv a bit of reverb or somink. but other than that i cant fault the intro. just heard the hihats on the outro drum tom roll too, tbh i didnt like em there either, you could just delete them there i rekon.
the drop, bass sounds nice, drums sound punchy, me likes. could do with more edits i rekon from the drop to 2.00, a few little drum tweaks here and there like the one at 2.35 would be good. would like to see more 1/32 drum rolls/fill/edits here and there, i rekon this tune could benefit from it. the voice sample fits well over the drop, sounds a tiny bit like mesiah tho imo.
anyways, overall this is a quality tune man with quality engineering to boot - whats your secret bruv, fess up otherwise im gonna hide your keys in your house!

revel in the crapness of the website and then hit the add button... go on, do it, u know u wanna
The drop: Right then mate, not digging your drums. They sound messy to me. Actually just realised (2.00), its ya bass screwing the drum sound. Are you sidechaining them???
LOve the bass around the 3.55 onwards.
Not over keen on the vocal. Like the spoken stuff though.
OK, Here we go. It's not a bad track, but I think it needs a bit adding to it, maybe some bleeps, bit of feedback. It got a bit boring after a while. The snare sounds like it is being pulled up harshly I've just realised (2nd listen) Maybe on every 16th bar, chuck in a nice break. The drums sound tired after a while.
Not bad, but I don't think its one of your best pieces.
Intro is really synthetix neurofunk style, nice edits, that voice could maybe use some delyed effects, and go further throughout the song. Break is nice, nice deep basss, by the way i meant the voice of the indian girl, the one of the man could be more clear i think. Gotta love your full sound and those bass sounds around 2. Very full spectrum in a good way.
Yep this track is top notch like usual,
already know what I think pretty much
wish they would make a more stable version of massive, cause that shit is def like devils blood, so good when it hits your lips
peace out G *

Interesting intro. Very unique. Great atmosphere. Great sounding mix. The drums and bass fit together very well. Great effects to the bass! I think the drums could have some more variation and such. It's just the same break over and over. For a majority of the song.
However, I still find that it is missing something. Still great song, everything fits perfect with eachother.
Finally got round to having a listen, so feckin little time atm
still, back to your tune
This is good but something isnt quite right. I think its the way the beat works with the reese (which is very good on its own). When the beat first hits it just feels a little too regimented and laboured. works better when the tunes progressed a bit though
absolutely lovin the vocal in the intro - exactly the kinda stuff im into
nice dark synths when the beat kicks in, beat is nice and dark, rigid - but in a good way
very moody feel to this when the bass gets goin
levels, eqs, sound choice - all top notch as per ur usual (high) standards - respect
to be honest from the second drop im definately feelin the melodies more than from the 1st drop, it seems to flow better and evrything "fit" better on the secod hald as well (if that makes any sense!)
vocal fits well over the bass / synth melodies
not my fav or urs but defintely still a wicked tune mate
DUDE! Those drums are fucking brutal! Ima need a neck brace
I gotta learn how to do Drum n Bass drums as well as my normal Jungle, cos its a new art :p
I'm likin the vocals in the background too, ethnic sounding
The warping bass is nice as well, although I feel a little more low end on it would give it more thwack!
Sounds very professional though mate, way up there with the big names
I like the intro, nice atmospherics. The buzzing synth is nice, as is the low vocal sample.
I think that the tune is a little weak when the beat comes in at 1:04. This is mostly because of the string pad in the background, it sounds like a continuation of the atmospherics with a beat behind it. I think if a stronger reese or a bit more bass at that point would help the tune flow much better.
I really like the reese at 2:12.
I think the drop could be improved at 3:20. IMO, the fade-out sounds too much like an ending, I think a longer series of echoed hits before the beat would build suspense better.
I like the breakdown at 3:35.
The vocal clip gets a little repetitive IMO. It's blended well, but ultimately it's still the same one line. I think finding another line to compliment it, or repitching it might add interest.
Nice rock fill at the end
Overall the mixdown is excellent as is the bass work. Some minor changes in structure would go a long way.
But I will reinstall it and then I can make the improvements.
