woaaah that sub is deep in my head phones Big Grin

Nice track snare sounds a bit splashy for my taste

Nice melodies, only real problem is I seem to get lost in the track. there isnt a great deal of structure or defined sections I can pick up on.

nice at 5:00 ish likin the Amen shifing breaks
getting more used to the snare now but it sounded a bit alien at the beggining.

Ends quite suddenly(i would reduce some of the layers gradually to make a thinner texture before ending)

Thanks for the listen

UC

Hey!

Nice elements and atmosphere in here.

Not to keen on the drums either. Their flow is generally ok but they are a bit undefined and powerless. Kick is a too boomy but that’s quite a personal thing.

I think your highs are boosted too much. They sound unnatural and even a bit unpleasant. There also seems to be a small lack of mids!? Anyways, try to improve your mix and the overall eq a bit.

Not bad.

I think the kick is too much "Oof...Oof"
I like the snare though.
After the intro, the bit for the break is really spacy, i like it. What synth u used there?
I like the drop but i think the kick ruins it for me, it reminds me a bit of Super mario --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qa7DjB6IVmM
but do you get what i mean?
Other people may like it it could just be me!
You got some nice synth works going through your track though, i like this style.
The bit with the amen @ 4:47 owns !!!
Try changing your kick (if im not the only one saying this ofcourse).

Further on nice track man!
