There isn't enough liquid on this board. I liked some of your earlier work so it's nice to see a new track up. All ass-kissing asside, down to the track:

Very nice intro, good liquid feel. I think when the kick comes in it starts to drag a little, I would have the kick running a little less before the drop.

The little break before the drop is great, the drop is great as well.

Beats are pretty good but I think the snare could use beefing up a little.

I don't think the synth arp works at 2:15, I would cut it or make it less prominent. I think the little synth arps at the breakdown at 3:00 work much better, they're more understated and flow better.

I like the way the elements sift through at the breakdown, I think that the breakdown is a bit long though and mirrors the intro too much. The melody at the drop could be a bit more "epic," more vocals with the arps sitting behind rather than going in front. Some automated panning might be nice on the arps, or some sort of ping pong effect.

Ending is a bit abrupt, I think a trail off taking out different elements might work nicely.

Overall I like the feel of this and the basic melodies and chords are very solid. I think it could use a bit more polish in the arrangement and I wasn't a fan of some of the synth sounds, but overall this track has lots of potential and is very nice liquid material.

I also like the intro a lot. It has a very nice atmosphere. The drop is fine but i have to agree with Minas about the kicks before that. The beats are fine it rolls nicely but you could use more variation on that imo. That arp at 2:15 isn't bad but you should to bring back to the background. Anyway this track is quite good i like itSmile

That sound ultraphat!
But I'm afraid this track will be a problem because of copyrighted samples.
Timing of vocals could be improved a bit.
Sounds a bit empty at times.

Smasher! You prove to be very signable!

Thanks for all of the comments guys. I may go back and refine it.

As for the copyright violation, that involves all track with any sampled breakbeat too. They/we/I didn't get permission either... :/ If your going to remove my track, you'd have to remove most of the other ones do to sampling.

If you find any tracks that have copyrighted samples in them, you can report them by using the 'report' button or sending a PM to one of the moderators.
In your report please mention the original source of the sample and the location where the sample occurs (in minutes:seconds). We investigate these reports asap and remove all reported tracks which violate copyright.

This is in accordance with the industry's best practices for publishing audio files on the internet. We are required by law to investigate and if necessary remove any reported copyright violations on this site.

I'm sorry if you feel offended but please don't take it personally, we receive a lot of reports, mostly by producers like yourself who have had their tracks removed in the past. We have already removed hundreds of tracks.

If you have made a track which has copyrighted samples in it of which you think they are essential to the track, feel free to upload the track to another site or online storage facility and post a link here.

Another thing you could do is tweak the vocal so we can't recognize it anymore Big Grin
Use reverb, delay, chorus, filtering, vocoding, change the pitch,...
