Really Liked this! Was hoping for some shuffle to be added and then it came in and this picked up the vibe a hell of alot. The Intro was big aswell, you should put more emphasis on the build up to this intro because it really does hit hard! I think the drum processing was nicely done the snare stood out for me if i'd have changed anything it would be the volume or maybe the sample choice of the Ride but that is just my personal opinion on this and finally try adding some different Fills and shuffles to mix the beat up abit, Overall I like this track and could see it being dropped by DJs and moving some feet!

Some saw lead with some trace-style melody would fit nicely on top of this.

Totally agree mate, i was playing around with a sidechained pulsing saw melody, but couldnt get anything down......not anything that was half decent anyway.
Probably did upload a little early and there could be more to it, oh well.
cheers mate.

intro sounds interesting, liking those athmos. percussions just before the drop work well imo. cool bass sounds, nice fx-stuff, i like the vibes goin on. maybe would like to hear some more variation on the bass-lead (or bring those athmos from the intro back in?)
all in all i like this one much more than the version you uploaded as a preview. cool tune.

the bassline in teh drop reminds me of sega gensis synth sounds, for like road rash (great music) for a track like this not aggressive enough, with the drums and lead so simple, one or the other should add the spice, but both are bland, just look over the song and see where you can fuck with either of them, at 2:20 you hold that tension nicely, it's a really great track, just make the song more ADHD compatible.
What can I say, the world of production comes down to all the ad lib stuff, all the tiny change ups.

Hey, I normaly just listen to all the new tracks when i come on this site without even thinking about leaving comments, but this track is F**KING AWESOME!!! simple but to the point, lovely crisp drums, the pads take me to another place, bass is simple but spot on. overall great sound. Would sound great in a set.
I cant stop listening to this track, this is the 15th time ive listened 2 it I think!
A Tune 2 b proud of.

Epic intro. I think your loop could do with a ghost snare. All the synths and pads are fantastic, could do with a little variation in either the bass synth or it's rhythm. The mixdown sounds a little too maximised but it still works because its supposed to be a loud anthem. Nice work pal
