What up man? Not a bad track man, it's got some good elements but could use some work. The drums feel like they need some swing, and I think they might benefit from some ghost snares or something. Kind of reminds me of old Full Cycle stuff.

Not bad.
The pads in the breakdown sound a bit too wide, they don't fit in there.

production quality sounds good to me. not really in love with the main-fx-stuff, but thats taste. could maybe use some more variation imo (or some different elements? maybe some stabby-lead or smth?), to give some different context. percussions at ~2.30 works well for me. all in all a good track.
cheers

thanks, i'm working on it :-)
@ battle drone: wich pads are you talking about ? can you write the time plz ?
@ rythor1, you mean ghost snare like in the second part of the track ? i think the 2nd drop is better (and more charged) than the 1st, should i go this way and edit the 1st part of the tune ? ? ?

Yeah man I didnt even notice them in the second half the first time I listened, but maybe give them a little more volume and have them hit twice instead of once.A technique I really like to use sometimes is to take my main snare, pitch it up a couple notes and eq it a little, sometimes I'll even cut it short using an envelope in Kontakt, and use these for ghost snares, it really makes the drums mesh together. Although sometimes this doesn't work out, but it's worth trying out. Really like the conga work in the second half, I can never get these to sound like I want but I usually try and create my own cause I dont really have any good sample packs with congas. Hope this helps man, peace!
Oh yeah, I think that the first drop should be left how it is, it gives the track a good progression with the second drop being more heavy.

Like the intro,drop is pretty cool.
Kick needs some tops to it for me sounds too round and boomy.
Drums and percs all work well together and like Rythor said i would double up ghost hits to give more shuffle.
Good choice of mids,they all work well together.
Mix is pretty good and master is as loud as it should be.
Overall good tunage man, keep it up!
Cheers

thx a lot, i did the edits on doubling gsnares and rising the velocity :-)
i also improved the mixdown a little, a new version should appear on my sound cloud ;-)
thx for the congas :-) i don't remember where i sample them but they are pitched-up, eq-ed, compressed and stereo enhanced to separate them from drums that eat a lot of freq needed by the toms to sound clear.
