Wow, the sound quality and panning is amazing mate. Tonnes of depth and scope. A big 3D sound. My only criticism here would be that the panning on the echo-laden snare gets a little tiresome after a while. It's constantly moving from right to left and snares shouldn't really do that. Imo, it would be a better idea to simple centre it.

I'm not usually a fan of long spoken vocal samples because they always seem like the lazy thing to do but this one is actually pretty cool (apart from the guy not being able to pronounce his h's - in'umane, in'umanity. Big Grin ). Sets the vibe up pretty well.

The 'drops' are really good. Beats are pretty much spot on for me. Personally, I would love to here some more toms tho and maybe one or two natural-sounding crashes. Check what Massive Attack do in Inertia Creeps.

Overall, a very good track indeed. If you were on tour with a band this would make an excellent first tune to get the crowd warmed up. Big Grin

Aye. I like the military style breaks and they would give this a trip hop vibe imo.

The vibes and atosphere are nice too.

The wooo-hooo-uuuuu sound you use reminds me of a more modern mini melody from the film Lost Boys with Kiefer Sutherland for some reason. HaHa.

See the way you've produced this I'd class it more under a mix of ambience,triphop and downtempo and not so much as Dubstep even though you've used a few wobbles in there.

Same for your recent tunes too Tomos mate.

They downtempo and quite remind me of a cross between portishead and massive attack which are 2 groups I quite like.

More to the point ...

Why didn't you upload to the player !?

Dubstep, grime, breaks and related styles are also allowed. They have been for a while now. Happy

Alright 8 kb was a little too low, before I could not tell if it was your mixdown or if the file was bad so I did not comment. It sounds better now. I like the vox. Like all of the synths and the way you layered them. drumz could be a little more solid, maybe add a quiet layer without reverb as well as use a little less reverb on the layers with reverb. Take care brutha. Z
