Also a track which has been online for a long time and hasn't been reviewed yet.
Cool funky breakbeats. Bass is really nice too, people should use more real bass guitars instead of those hoovers all the time
The track is a bit hectic and has a frantic build up with lots of sudden changes, interesting but unfit for the dance floor.
Don't like the machine gun hihats in the beginning so much, they're really too fast and don't have much rhythmic feeling, using a typical open/closed funk/disco style hihat pattern would fit the track much better. The other hihat line is also not fitting too well, just a straight 4/4 rock hat. Check out the hihats on Jamiroquai's first album to get an idea of what I mean!
Drums sound good, nice and inventive use of sound effects. The placement of lead lines in the stereo field is better than in Fluter.
The delay on the weird soft attack lead line (0:47) that is put on the other side is really good, gives a nice feeling of depth to it.
The snare roll at the right is nice, but too loud.
The percussive lead line (1:34) is very original, how did you make that? Sounds like wood blocks mixed with steel drums and then pitched or something. Wow.
Weird ending, song is not finished I guess?

Have to second everything thechronic said, exept about the hoovers
I'm a sucker for hoovers
Not bad, but not really finished, and no dancefloor filler.
