Listenin now,

intros quite nice could do with a little more variation,
bass riff on the intro is phat and that reverbed voc is niceee, fuck knows what hes sayin but niceeee.

Breaks that are just before the drop could be tighter if you ask me ......but overall good production work, very experimental and different. Bigup

Wow this rocks!! Rinse

Very powerful track, with great sounds and melodies. I love the way the reece and the high sound play together Banana

The intro is cool, the break is introduced mightily, and the buildup is well done, like those drastic breaks inbetween the rolling parts. Very impressive Shocked

Great how you change your beats according to the flow of the music, slowing down in some parts, keeping only a minimal of drum elements before going full whack again when the music builds up again. You clearly put a lot of effort in this! Bigup

Some comments though:
- master compression is not very good (very audible eg at 1:38 - 1:39 - the kick causes the reece to pump)
- general lack of high end - the frequency range seems to stop at 12kHz. But then again, the track is dark and would perhaps not benefit from having really sparkling hihats Wink

- some dynamic mixing would make it better (eg at some points some elements should be louder - listen eg to the part between 5:05 and 5:20 - the drums should be a bit louder in this part)
- the very final short snare roll is too much I think Wink

Overall a very impressive track!! Just mix it off a little better and it can go straight on vinyl!!

This track is bad ass. I like it a lot. My only reccomendation would beto possibly mix the drums a little louder or turn the synth thats a bit before 5:00 down a little, because it drowns out the drums. Other than this, the track is great imo.

Yeah, PHAAAAAAAAAAAAT reece!!! And phat theme too! Nice amenz too, lots of power in the whole track indeed!
Bit of a dropoff towards the hi frequencies indeed, pump them up a bit.

Quality track!

Review of remastered version:
OK so you boosted the existing high frequencies and put a lot of reverb on it Big Grin

It's also compressed much more aggressively, and there are some new break variations. The breaks in the background are definitely more audible.

It's an improvement but still not perfect. It's a bit too aggressive in the high end now, you seemed to have boosted the whole high end but that was not really necessary - only the very high frequencies (above 14kHz) were lacking, the 'brilliance' or 'sheen' as it is called, the normal high end was OK Wink

The compression is a bit too much now, the basses lose their stability a bit. Difficult to do good mastering compression on a computer, I know...
I'll run it through the Altec compressors at work Cool

Cool track. Blasting drums. I just think it has a bit too much reverb in the synths.
Keep it up with the hard sound.
