Please check out my new track 'Come On' and post your comments here!
This is my first drum n bass track. It's a work in progress. I still have a bunch to do. All voices are from my Logic Studio library (I'm allowed to use them).
I still have a bunch I'm planning on doing, it's not the whole track. Let me know what you all think so far.
Thanks

starters-like wot uv dun with the vocal in intro.think the sketchy processed drumz u got goin on r really smart-jus dont know how dj friendly this intro wud be-specially wen it switches into that mid bass n the hats seem off(mayb due to revrb/processin uv dun?)quite long intro too.all eq'in dusnt sound too bad-evryfin seems to be standin clear in its own place.i absolutely luv the snare ur using but think it wud benefit from havin a higher 1 layerd too-even tho drumz sound quite well eq'd still think they need to cum 4ward a bit n maybe sum livelier crisp hats sumwhere in there-sub is soundin fat n nice 2 me.overall think this is quite an individual n unique track-fairy original.fair play mate if this is ur first d&b track-u shud'v heard mine!!

nice tune. i agree it is pretty unique. great bass line you. drums seems too thin and wishy washy and the snare is a dull thud, you should layer it with a snare with a good snap to it. not really a dance floor thriller but more of a post rave chill out track. the arpegiated synth sound quite a lot like a preset, maybe play with it a bit and create some different sections. like the vocals, sound like the very early true players / ram stuff. for a first track, not bad at all, from the sounds of it though you must be famlliar with production.

Great feedback! Thanks! I'll look into everything. Could you clarify what's making it not the best for a DJ to mix into. Thanks for the great comments and suggestions.

Thanks much! I'll look into adding a snappy snare.
HAHA! The arpegiated synth sound is the only preset I used. I'll have to ditch it. Nice catch.
It's my first Drum N Bass track. I used to make techno and trance years ago, but haven't had much time. Also, I kept starting tracks and not finishing because they would start cool and get shitty. I recently been into DnB so I thought I'd give it a real go at trying to do it right. Previously I'd never really used EQ. I just layered sounds. I knew I should, but was lazy and didn't realize HOW CRITICAL it was. There is an obvious quality difference with this new track and my old stuff. This has a much better sound quality. Back in 95 I had an EP out on Digital Records under the name Willard E. Love. Since then, I haven't done much. I'm really looking forward to making some better sounding stuff. I have to say, all the tutorials on the net nowadays is really helpful. Having this site as a resource too should make by lonely music creations better. It's good to get quality feedback!
Thanks Everyone! Keep it coming!

i jus meant when that breakbeat cums in on the intro-beats sound a bit all over the shop-fink its nice effects but may be bit confusin mixing in.obviously by no means am i sayin that its 'unmixable' just i think it cums down to personal taste.safe

Wild panning basses, bad idea, keep them mono please or a slight touch of stereo on the mids and a mono low end.
Drums sound compressed to death.
Track has potential but needs work.
Can't listen the whole thing because that panning makes me go nuts (on headphones).

for a first try at dnb this is great
strange drum choices at 1:0
bass which enters is good, need to turn up those drums tho
like th echoice of fx
pretty solid idea with a couple of fixes could be really good
as I said absolutely great for a first tune, keep at!

sounds alright from the get go the vocal stabs are cool. when it drops the drums sound very rock like in the way that they are mixed but i think they lack a bit of oomph. the lead synth has a lot of stereo movement going on i think you should try and narrow it down a bit. sub needs to be a bit louder too 
for a first tune..... better than mine
