I dig this one. The bass stabs in the intro almost make my headphones vibrate of my head Tongue
I like the build-up of the track. Maybe it could use a lil more variation in the drums towards the end? Love the smeagol sample Tongue , schizo all the way baby!

I seem to hear some little pops after 2.30, mainly on the left channel, bit anoying on the ears for me Frown

don't really dig this,
there's still an amount of basic production issues ...
some of those bass sounds seem to override each other, causes my speaker to blow Big Grin (but that's not a good thing)
there's no real structure in it, the bass stabs you use in the intro, they continue all the way, and the sound remains the same in every direction (don't know if it's a sample or a synthesized bass)
the amen that pops in sometimes ... Confused it really sounds as if it doesn't belong there ... filter it, eq it, do whatever it takes ... but integrate it ...

too much forced variations to my likings to (amen switching with the other break ... doesn't sound natural ...)

two general comments: structurize & integrate your sounds, make em melt, but keep em clean ...

Like the LotR sample, always sounds cool Big Grin

Pads in the intro are too quiet, give them a boost.

Your one bassline is quite mono, the otherone is very stereo, too much difference -> fix that.

Drums: not very much power, but not too bad.

Don't like that organ like melody... Sounds a bit dull...

Amen sounds quite crisp, but it doesn't blend in with the rest.

Some strange clicking in the left channel, I think it's either the bassline or the amen. Doesn't sound very pleasent.

No real story in the track though, just goos on a bit and stuff...

Have to second what J said...

1.5/5

Intro is a bit messy. Don't really like distorted flanged bassline.
Sub is ok. Like the breaks that start from 1:29. Unlike Surya i like an organ melody , imho should've been main leading in the track. Kick sould use more mid range.
Result: nice breaks and sub. Liked a couple of moments. But it doesn't have a power it should imho. Also you could try to make it more agressive with boosting 3-6khz range.
Rate for now 2 of 5

Some basssounds come boostiin' in quite hard and surprising/shocking,
The beats are very minimalistic i only hear snares, then some kicks but the ghostnotes (and i know they're there) are hardly audible: was that the intention?
The amen-like james brown-break could be very well of with some different eq-ing.
The crashes are also loud.
I like the way you put together a load of samples, without making it a clichésounding track.

bass stabs are wicked. sampling is nice.
very dark.... but dark is good. Bigup
the amen break towards the middle is very nice.
although it does kinda drown everything out. the snare is just a bit overbearing. but al;together it is very well done.

3.5/5
