Nice full pads in the intro, good atmosphere. The chords played create a nice feel and melody, definitively enjoyable!
The kick fading in sounds a bit a like a rock bass drum, doesn’t fit too good. After the drums come in you seem to have layered another one underneath?! It’s now very deep, what’s not a bad thing, but imo a bit of body, sharpness, punch or character is missing.
I also find the alteration between low kick and that clicky high one a bit confusing, I guess a constant kick sound would be better.
Snare is fine, maybe a bit too present in high frequencies but if so just a tad.
Sub bass feels warm, it has a nice vibe to it also.
I think the transition between the pad part and the one with the funky basslines could be improved and be smoother.
Those bass-sounds are pretty sweet. It would sounds even better with slightly fuller drums, maybe another break layered, more percussions or so. Just fill out the frequency spectrum a bit more.
Nice tune overall, keep it up!

Hey mate,
The beginning is really beautiful, nice opening, all good.
When the beats come in, it feels a bit too sharp at the high frequencies, and missing the mids. Drums need little more processing; try eq-ing the highs and mids, compressing the snare a bit, try to add more punch to it.
That deep bassline sounds great and really fits in the picture. The other bass elements are good but they kinda lack of presence in my opinion. I would also try to eq them a bit in the mid range.
The structure of the track could be improved to make it longer and more interesting. You brought in quite some elements, but you ended the track way too fast and abrupt.
I absolutely love that chill pad. Did you use some existing preset from somewhere? Sounds damn good.
Overall this is a great piece of composition, but it feels a bit unfinished. It definitely deserves a little more work. But anyway I can tell that you will make some great tracks in the future if you keep it like this. I think you have the talent for it

Nice tune! I also like the pads. You have some sweet idea in this track. The snare has too much hi end as it was said above. You should work a bit more on the buildup imo. It is a bit confused atm. Anyway i enjoyed it. Cheers

Nice intro pads, not keen on the distorted fuzzy one though.
Ya drums: Something sounds a bit odd, maybe your second snare hit is a bit quiet, also, the timing sound a bit odd. Could do with another break to help it roll. The kick is dominating the break a bit.
Not a bad track, but I think it needs some more elements. Lacks a bit of dimension, but I did enjoy listening.

Interesting track man really deep reminds me of d-bridge / old ram records. I think you should progress with the ideas on the intro instead of switching it up so much. The production quality on the intro is great - really deep an textures r wicked! The drop I felt lost a bit of attention for me, and the rest of the track kinda moves around alot, every section is very well produced but the consistency of the interest is gone due to this. Alot of ideas - enough for several tunes! You should trim it down in my oppinion and run a b-line that's more repetitive with less switches.

judging by the number of newbies on the site doing this style, were gonna drown in liquid (pun intended)
lol, not a bad number mate, not to keen on the fx usage but thats just me, it does flow very err. liquidy
anyways others got it spot on - good vibes, nice sound but lacks a bit of thud, even for this style it still should hit you in the chest more
reckon it could use more mid basses, kind of like what calyx does if you know what I speak of
keep at

Beautiful warm pads @ intro, i love em.
Swirling beats fit the pads nicely.
I'm not too keen on the EQ'ing of the main beat @ 0:50. It got too much high end and it really slices through my eardrums.
Listening to the different arrangements of the beats, I must say you did a damn good job.
Though I think it's a nice track i got this feeling it's actually going nowhere, and it's kinda short.
So nice track overall

Not a big fan of intelligent DnB aside from LTJ Bukem.. but your's rolls nicely. I would definetly add some vocals.. Also, consider collaborating with someone else and sharpening up the mix. Vocals, vocals, vocals and maybe a vocoder (which is popular right now). I wished the tune was longer or was it just a sample. pause...I'm reloading it so I can get a closer listen.. maybe some whistles or ephereal washes would spice this one up some. I would download it if it were longer. Please keep me posted on future releases! Hope my comments are welcomed! peace out, Damian Hood www.myspace.com/damianhood

yeah yeah chill.
i like how the bass comes in.
This is a great work for me
but the kick could have a little bit more sound and the snare could be punchier.
carry on :-)

It makes me wanna get out my sit and headbang the ceiling xDDDD I love the structure and the overall ambiance that it has. Some effects are a little heavy on the eardrum, but it's lovely. Keep up the good work.

Nice pads! Feeling the pads a lot. I'm not too sure about the drums. The kick is way to deep for me, the snare is kinda thin. Some interesting sounds effects you've done to the drums, sounds really cool. 
Like others said, it should be longer. Atmospheric stuff tends to be longer. Pretty cool track man.

The undulating pads at the start are great - growing on me the more I listen. I especially like the musical texture at :30 onwards, that's when the mix really sparkles.
The collision of different parts of the break in the first half has a really refreshing, exhilarating sense to it. I can definitely see the parallels between this and dBridge. The detail work on the ghost hats (forward/reverse/pitch bend) is also great.
I don't know whether you've ever heard any of the D&B for the Ridge Racer series - this would fit right in (that's a compliment btw
However, started to lose the sheen around 2:00-2:40, little repetitive for my tastes, especially in contrast to the brilliant work immediately prior. I realize you need contrast but the two halves are somewhat disparate so it's a little confusing.
Anyway, love the majority of this. Nice work.
