Good singing. A bit of hiss on the reconding, but that's probably hard to resolve with your equipment.
Hi-passed bassline in the intro is cool. Trancey sounds are nice, but too much too build a track around... for my taste. I like them in intros and breakdowns, but not as the theme of a track... It starts sounding like Anthem DnB... a genre which I don't really like (I like progressive trance, not Anthem Trance or Epic Trance) and I'm also afraid of it, since it's accessible to a big audience... and big audiences aren't good for any music genre, unfortunately...
Bassline is phat, resembles the one in 300 Thunders, no?
Vocals are a tad too loud indeed.
Very well made, but too trancey for my taste.
3.75/5 (maybe this should be a 4, not sure)

Never been into trance because of the 4/4 "flat" beats. But "Trance 'n' Bass" is what I am weak for I think.
I really like the overall structure of the track. Beautifull intro/ outro and nice main theme.
That girl has a very beautifull voice, a pitty of the noise in the recording. In the more solo parts the voice is a bit too loud like others said but when beats and bassline are pumping the voice just fits in nice for me. When I hear the voice, certainly in the outro I really have to think about eastern-european voices (a bit like the one in Goran Bregovic - Ederlezi) and I like it soo much!!
The bassline has nice filtereffects, not too pronounced but just in sync with the whole song, good work!
Due to the "not perfect" mixing I give it a 4

hmmm...the main synthline is cool, but i almost wanna hear a separate sub that's doing it's own thing if you know what i mean...the drums could be a bit louder in the mix, and could use either some more eq'ing to thicken em up or layer another snare over the existing one...the singing is top notch, tho---any chance i can remix this? solid tune when it's all said and done

Wicked track mate, like the voice, but miss a bit of that ol' ruff rugged and raw beats. A little less of trance, a tat down on the vocals, and a slight cut on the trance, I'd say though. But overal good track!

right here goes, this is a beutiful track.... but.... its not my thing as i am very into heavy sub basslines and filtered subs, simple hard beats, also i like simplicity, this is a very technical track, now the thing about the vocal is, its not too loud at all, its just lacking some reverb and a little delay, try that and tell me how it sounds, cos i think that will work, the production, i would say, is near on perfect, i like the whole trancey melody, and the bass fit perfectly, the drums are something to be desired, i love them. you HAVE to send me the rns so i can turn this into a real LONDON style d'n'b stomper i think i can create something special as you have already achieved, im gonna give this a 4.75/5 cos its FAB!!!
P.S. i would love for you to do a remix of this with nicol singing in her native language (just an idea)

quality tune, really like the whole trance'n'bass feel you got going on with it. Only thing i'd do wound be to put more emphasis on the beats. Nothing else to say really, top-notch tune!

hi,
great track with nice melody and sounds as well as the vocals.
but the track is not finished in my eyes... 
beatz: should have more punch and some changes in the hihatz and snares and so on as well as maybe more filtering in it. this could give the track more expression...
sounds: very good, very trancy but they are good and fit to the track well.
bassline: more subbass, doesn't push enough for my taste...
the reece line could be a bit more dirty and also have more extreme filtering parts.
vocals: you have a very good vocalist...
i would give it a bit more deepness with delay or reverb and also filtering!! maybe also some delay automations and stuff???
arrangement: it's not that exciting, the half time beat stands a bit alone at the end!!
all in all it still sounds very midranged, try to split up more frequencies and give more punch to the bass. your trance stabs and melodies would come clearer then. if you do this stuff you have a very phaaaaaaaaaaat track m8
keep workin on it, just details!!!!
rate 4/5

peace out

about the vocals:
| quote: |
| its not too loud at all, its just lacking some reverb and a little delay |
I agree: Some effects could "merge" the vocals into the track a little more I think.
I reallyreally like the overall sound and i just love the way it breaks loose at 1'40"
briliant
the trance-factor doesn't bother me

B-Complex asked me to remove this track, it is possible that it will be released on a record label!!
)
He will give some more details about it himself later on.
