Absolutely love your melody work man! Those vocals with all those long drawn out pads really set the mood of this track.
The subs are class A stuff too.
Only thing I'm not so keen on is the breaks. I don't know, they just sound a bit dumbed down and unoriginal to me, but then again I've never been very keen on the sliced up amen break stuff.
But again, because of thise superb melodies, this is a track I could listen to a lot before getting bored of it.
Still, all in all, pretty professional sounding stuff here! Keep it up!

alright, well let me say, i absolutely love the sounds you chose to use here. them synths are wonderful. very melodic stuff. honestly, i don't mind the amen cuts myself. as long as they get cut right, i don't get sick of them. fits the tracks nicely, however some may disagree, just personal preference i guess.

only thing i would like to hear is a little more push on sub bass. i think it could use a little upward direction on the decibels and still keep the sound of everything else intact. just seems i had to really push the system volume up to catch the full bass effect. it's good though as it is, i'm just a bass addict lol.

man, the sound on them synths are so wide it's like i'm in another dimension cranking it up. good stuff.

i think the structure is quite right. looking now i see the tracks already almost done which is a good test for me to see if i would get bored with a track. it doesn't feel too drawn out to me and it flew fast.

ending seemed a little abrupt though. maybe work it out a little more gradually like cutting off the drums and just end it out with some synths. no biggie though. all in all this is a quality tune. one i would definitely enjoy downloading for my personal collection. big ups to a big track! Listen Bigup

The song is very good overall, my only criticism would be that i don't particularly like the drums. Maybe some smoother sounding drums would fit better into the song. The pads make a good atmosphere and are done very well. The bassline is also done very nicely. The song is mixed toghether well and sounds like all the sounds belong in there. The vocals sound nice, I like how they are quite subtle but still add a lot to the sound. The intro is good, it builds up to the main part of the song nicely with the more sounds gradually coming in. The drop goes well with the into and the rest of the song, its a nice chill out, liquidly sound.

Lovely sounds from the off Marc

The atmos is great, lovely pads fx etc.

Just not keen on the beat, never been a massive fan of amens these days.
If it was my track i'd perhaps make the hits on the amen more choppy, sounds too thrashy at the minute imo.....but that might of been what you were going for Big Grin

Only on laptop so cant really hear any sub.....will update my review when i listen proper Wink

As for chill out dnb this is nice, detailed structure and top production as per usual. Sounds like it belongs on a 90's 'Journey's by DJ' album particularly the DJ Rap one.

i really like this one

at first i thought the intro synth sounded too harsh and raspy- but when the drums kicked in with the sample and bass, suddenly it all made sense.

the pads/ synths are spot on spacy - really wide and deep.

sliced amen - u either love or hate it and i love it! and the slowed down trip hop style drum breakdown is great for a breather.

u could get away with a touch more volume on the bass if u wanted to.

good climaxer! kinda seems short even tho its over 6 mins
