Damn esé you churn tracks out like a fucking machine on whizz !

Huh Big Grin Big Grin

The whole point is if you read BattleDrone's signature is to upload maybe one track a week thus increasing the chance your track will have a fair review and not get passed over. Like I'm doing seeing as I'm about to go to bed.
get up at quarter to 7, go to work and come home Thursday or Friday night.

whatever and eZ on the uploads mate !

Patience is of virtue.

Bleh fuck it I'm outtie.

0ot !

Oot

The snare sounds too thin. It needs to be much fatter. Layer it. Track sounds like rock music again. There's no uproaring naughtyness in this tune.

i think to make a track like this work you have to have amazing killer drums. these drums just dont do it for me. try layering or a bit of compresion on the kik drum. i think the snare needs the tails cuttin back a bit aswell. i like the intro with them glassy type noises tho

I like this. Deffo got me old bounce bopping to this. The main drops are very good I reckon, melody-wise, but there's quite a few occassions when the tune sounds a bit empty (such as the breakdowns). You gotta find a way to sustain interest throughout the whole tune (that doesn't mean layering it to fuck tho. Big Grin ).

Sound quality isn't too bad. However, a couple of tweaks would be helpful, such as boosting the overall volume, fattening-up the snare a bit, making the bassline more dirty and interesting. Also, some vocals would probably work well in this?

What DAW are you using? If it's FL7 or lower I'd be willing to re-master this if you're interested. Also, what plugins and synths are you using?

less kick snare more of a heavyier amen, and the track could be cut up a little more with a few more switches but apart from that a very well structured

I like the vibe this one has, It has a lot of atmosphere and builds nicely. The only thing that grates on my ears is the snare, it doesn't work for me, I think it needs a gate on it and some more low end, its a bit too long and toppy for my liking. On the second listen, I can get past the snare and actually, this has the potential to be a wicked tune.. I'm loving it. I'd like to see what it was like with a bit more of a rolling break layered underneath it. It's chilled enough to have a mad Amen under it and still sound dark. Nice work!

ez mate, kick and snare in the intro are nice n clear but i think the kick could do with a bit more low end to really get it to thump and the snare could do with a bit more snap.

i really like that synth bass melody! yes thats got me man, love it Wink could be beefened up slightly thoWink

like the sweeping effects at around 2:20.

overall really nice ideas, needs more impact, but i have to say i really like this one from a melodic perspective Bigup
