Dark liquid is the best, Intro is cool, maby some more fx s in the intro build up...maby. Sik drop. The beats sound pretty seperate from the bass though imo. get more fluid beats on the trak, bass n melods. will make up 4 the darkness. Mix ur liquid with the dark matter my friend, It works good 4 u.

I think the track flows along nicely, but for an attempt at a darker track, i think the samples are a tad weak, try some more sinister samples, i am a big fan of the darker side of dnb, hope to hear a ruffer version?

The lead chords are not dark at all, they sound very uplifting, almost like trance music tends to do. I would call this dreamy, but not dark.
Has potential though.

That bass is really nicely thick & wide man! I'm listening on my laptop speakers now, so it sounds that nice even on these Big Grin

I wonder what's coming next, I think I'd like to hear something putting more tempo in the tune. Maybe with some tempo-pushing highhats?

intro doenst really make the dark impression, but you never know with tunes these days whats coming behind the drop so noproblems there.
liking the trancey melodie acctually.
like the build up to the bass.
reese sounds nice too.
might wanna put a drop inbetween the build up and the bass.
have like a wierd sample playing and than suddenly the tune hits into dark mode, maybe ahve the trancey melodie play with a diffrent synth, one thats pitched down and dark, that would be niceBig Grin
I think you should go on with this for sureBig Grin

the reeces are dark, but the arpegiated type intro isnt, snare needs to be beefed up too, sounds too much like a rimshot to me. keep at it, the reece is good.

wooo! i can definitely see why your a liquid man! i'd love to hear your liquid tracks mate im sure they would be great. As for this track, im quite impressed, your using the synths in all the right places, one thing i would suggest is trying to seclude anything that has resemblence to liquid drum n bass, im sure this will help you acheive a more darker drum n bass track. Another thing that would help this acheive its potential is a big drop. maybe even changing that synth lead to an even grittier, dirtier sound on the second drop would prove helpful. Otherwise i like the track, keep it up
