ah yes. and i get the first review. the review to be critisized by all other reviews. or not. 
so..good intro. dark and scary..and you seemed to do a lot of delayish reverbs to add depth and ambience...but then..the beat jumped in for a few seconds and fell out again..and was all broke up. i feel you can work on this a bit more. make it scary..make the breaks jump out like a witch on fire in a haunted house when you're alone and everyone else is dead or dying. the drums seem to not take a forefront...and they dont mix into the ambience well..just tweak a little. decent changeups.
i know how writing is..you can only do so much before you say fuck it and just move onto a next track..but its good to take a week off from a track and go back and then smooth it out like fine clay.

im very happy that you guys took the time to lidten to my track. i tried as much as i could, i really did try to make the drum samples sound equal to each other, i know some of them are as of low quality and stuff, but im content that overall it sounds at least medium calibre. i have a long ways to go prodution wise, and all the imputs all of you give its very important to me, so far so good 
cheers spudletq, glimmer,pharmacite. and yes, this is the finished track of "something else" but i used some of dj hixx's samples, which he was cool to let me use, so i just called it "serves no purpose rmx" i always wanted to do a remix from another producer, just in my eyes and dark dementia

damn son you got some sik ass skills goin on here!!
very spooky intro.. ghost behind me? nope ok lets go...
the beginning drums were good nice teaser for what wwas too come.... 
the drums sound a little outta whack though not your usuall...
but still good none-the-less.
very heavy use of amens.... which i love...
the only thing that gets me is the bass is kinda muted in this one.... bring it up a bit..
5/5

Lol, ok, but this is a complete non remix since it has nothing to do with that other track 
Nice to give Hixxx credit though
Very dark intro, but a bit too long.
Overal:, cool, hard and dark track, but the sound is very thin and messy. Go easy on the reverb and stuff to get a more clear sound. Sub is a bit too loud, bass is lacking, mid is lacking a bit too.
So, cool, but sound needs a lot of work.
2.75/5 for the track
1.5/5 for the mixdown

guys, im very very happy you guys like my track
. i could say that i take a little more time making the tunes, but i try to make the finished product sound better (praictising on equing) and stuff, i know this isnt what exactly dj hixx's version like surya said, but my niche is this style, lots of chopped up beats and dirty reeces. even for guys like surora, who make great tunages (yes, i have a folder with all of your tracks)to say that they like my track is awesome. and surya who i know is a fella who anylises the technichal things in tunages, gives me more of a reason to crank out more, you guys rule, cheers......

Nice start, the bass there surprised me (at around 0:01)
I'm not really liking the beats, they're a bit to cut for me probably =\ Nice bass switches though, from sawy bass to uber-low if that's how it is
3:31 is more like it, liking this part, though the beats are still a bit too cut. The bass is a bit weird too, this track's samples are like, half-cut in the first and main parts of the track. 4:07-4:53 - ownage. The beats in the end are nice, but the bass still isn't non-stop, nfiwtf, but i dislike that type of bass 
Nice end.
Since the stuff is too cut-over, i'll give 2.5/5. Just not my style and i really dislike break-stuff of that style.
Still, the sounds and mastering are pretty leet, gj on that.

thnks for the input, foreign. i tried several standard beats, but it just sounded too plain, but since i like chooping up beats ansd stuff, it guess it just came together in the end. its kind of early panacea/ no uturn stuff that i love, its just a homage to the type of drum and bass that paved the way for artists today. cheers...
