Cool track! Really like the dreamy kinda vibe, but for me the synth at the first drop ruins it a bit. Guess you're going for a heavier part after the drop but personally I would keep it a bit in the same category as the part before, just because it's so good Smile

Curious about the finished version...

nice start to the track
dreamy but still retains a nice raw feel to it
nice break down, luv the filterd loop/percussion
heavy!!!!
2:03 - like the change, not that it was needed it just suits the timing
i personally am happy with the snare throughout the track although that might show my lack of knowledge in these areas
second break down is nice, vocal reminds me of the prototype tune in the early days 'cutslo' or sumfin??

interesting second drop
2:19 the track is rinsin an kinda steps up the pace a little - good move

hey dan akroyd!!!

then again i guess at times - who you gonna call!!!

great track - cant wait to hear the finished cut

4/5

very omni trio, and very aquasky...the sudden drop is cool but cuahgt me off guard...it has also a kind of total science feel to it...not really my taste...after first break not feeling the synth....the sub is nice Bigup

thought...once the sytnh drops out its nice again...and just kind of fallows this pattern...extremely good production work...but as far the song goes, not really feeling it.... 3.5/5

again the production is fucking awesome...but the structure might need a little work... Bigup

edit: just pops in my ears

Listening to the second version...
a bit different but still very good. Really like how you've changed the part after the drop at 02:20, keeps the vibe flowing, but different than the other parts, cool...
Drums are good indeed! You used a lot of different sounds it seems and they fit well, wich is nice Smile

Listening to the new version

Nice intro, dreamy.
Drums are done very nicely but could use some more mid.
Drop: nice but make that hoover like thing a bit fuller. Try giving it some bass.
The sub is nice, but needs sub: maybe layer it with itself, one octave down?
Drums really need a bit more mid.

Nice track mate. Good chill influences, but still enough power to make it dancable.

3.5/5 for the track
2/5 for the EQing
