Nice buildup with the dubsteppish kickoff, and kickin' in the rolling drums later.

The bass misses power throughout the entire track, I didn't feel it rumbling, even with my headphones turned up rather loud.

good variation and breaks to keep the track interesting untill the end

nice interesting sounds to start off.

really like the hip hop break in the into. very industrial sounding .
wicked tune m8. lots of nice edits on the drums. not exactly what i play but, but very well produced. respect.

the only thing i would do to this is turn up the bass a bit.

cheers!

bass is aswome and beat is banging, the snare is heavy as hell, i do feel like it needs more effects when the main section kicks in, sumthn like a rythmic lead.

has some good fills and the vocal samples are awsome

bo, this tune is some sik shit, have come to expect no less from the one like nick zz. drums are equed well, mid bass is nice n squelchy, lots of cool edits here and there, evil sounds in general. do agree about the bass comments but thats an easy fix.

peace

Very impressed on the intro. I never manage to make one sounding as cool as this one..

For the rest of the track I especially liked the bass and voices! It's pretty cool what you can do with some good vocal samples. The drums are not really in my style but they're programmed and equalized well! Just as the overall equalizing of the track. Which I still find one of the most difficult and time-demanding things to do. Good build-up too! I'm always very interested in which programs people used, especially when it sounds a great as this one. So, what's your secret formula, man? :-D

Greets, Benzin

Thanks for all of the great reviews and advice! We did another edit and fixed a lot of the little things mentioned including the bass and added some more FX. We recorded some Japanese vocals as well. We did not post it yet; we might do another post for the tune after we think it is 100%. Thanks so much for the help. Cheers. Z

Great tune, awesome use of samples. I'm liking 1.15, just before it drops. Personally, i think it could do with a bit more in the low mids/low end. For me, the kick could maybe be a bit more punchy. Other than that, sounds good man.

Wow, impressive production. Tonnes of texture! Not sure if there's any point in reviewing this version because you already have a new one on beatbiz.net, so I'll review that instead (the vote I just registered was for the .be version tho)...

Mate, that distorted bassline is absolutely sick. Really, really impressive. I'm likin the extra Japanese vocals too, they fit nicely into the overall vibe. The production quality seems to be spot-on to me, actually it's probably the best I've ever heard from you because I can't find any faults with it. The tune itself is also one of the best I've heard from you guys. Very distinctive. I've got no complaints, this is seriously good. Big Grin
