Please check out my new track 'Remedee (audio Demon Remix)' and post your comments here!
Yes, nice one for Culture letting me do the remix on this one, the catch only was to do a remix without using the original samples! - Used Reason 4, tried to make this an all-round tune with a dirty drop and more musical towards the end.

The intro is way to long for my taste and lacks any event that would make me want to go on listening. You could have stuff fading in or whatever variation to keep the attention.
The melody you used is weak and seems off key, the synth plying it is to basic and unprocessed. The soundscape created by the pads is odd and the tune doesn’t really benefit from them.
The break flows nicely but appears to have too much high end which glows together with your synth action.
Kick hits bit too low and interferes with your sub bass in parts.
The basses used in the main part are not bad, though they don’t cut through the mix properly.
I think it’s a good idea to re-eq the whole composition so that it sounds less muffled.
The brass coming in later ruined the track for me (cheap sound, strange melody programming).
I’m sorry to be so negative but imo you should ditch the tune or drastically change stuff (structure, sounds, eq…) and rework. Or maybe this isn’t my cup of tea, I dunno…

They is alot of fading in out / filter changes, the melody is simple due to previous tracks i've put up on here people saying "they is too much or too little" and 2nd drops completely different from the first so I cant understand the concept fully on no variation or maybe that it just needs some extra breaks within it and couple of pads are from jungle warfare 1 so again cant understand the concept of "odd", different maybe.
ALthough each track is "each to their own" cant see one positive remark in accordance with the track only that you slate people for their negetive points and not positive?? - Cheers for the opinions anyway.

You can accept my review or not, that’s up to you. But you gotta be able to cope with criticism if you publish a tune. I see no slating in my review (that’s what you were saying if I understood it correctly) and I always try to be constructive.
I’m an honest person (mostly) so if you don’t fancy people saying what they think I won’t bother you with my reviews any longer.

drums sound fairly clear but not really feeling the synth or the melody in the back ground. the bass line that comes in around 40 sounds very cheap and muffles the tune, structure not so bad. the hi hat isnt too great in the first break down.
great drop though the rizer with the drums works very well. good bass on the drop, ver very jump up. not my favorite style but i got a lot of mates that would love it. the whump on the end of the four bar loop is too distorted and the right frequencies havent been equed out so it doesnt sound quite right, play around with it and the filter to get it clearer.
wait that intro melody coming in just killed it for me, you gotta change it mate. second drop should also be changed, melody again not up to scratch.
mix aint too bad, it is quite muddy with that bass, re eq it and use side chaining on the bass to let the drums breath more.
the brass synth is also very poor, sounds like a reason preset, which is never a good thing.
all in all there are some good elements in there worth keeping, i would rework it rather than stat from scratch, you obviously have a grasp on making jump, but it aint there yet. keep working on it and repost when you have fixed it up.

you got your high end on the beats smudged all over, IMO try and eq out the frequencies
takes a while to get going too, the melody in the intro is not particularly interesting...
once the bass drops the beats are too thin, no real depth, mostly cause of the highs
very barely resembles culture boys version, wouldnt have guessed its a remix
I do like the bass its got that lofi grittiness
work it

For me the track is nice, not dig the jump up style.
Little too much high
Kick and especially snare need more power in the mix, try some tape distortion on the snare to and give it that slammin effect and boost around 300 herz orsoo

hi mate! i might be wrong but in the trumpet melody seem to be some mistakes. are you sure you are working with the right notes? sounds really weird. besides that you have to add a constant bassline. it sounds empty without it. the rhythm sounds okay so far. keep the music coming.

Your intro is going out of key. Not nice on the ears at all. Also, the synth is to preset and boring.
The drum have to much high end
The bassline isn't over original either, really reminds me of Krusts old track with the car horns in it.
That stuff around the 4.30 onwards is just weird mate, sounds like a school brass band. not nice. Sorry mate.
