Don't expect fairy melodies, this one is meant to be a dance floor shaker. Hope you guys find it catchy enough!

Hey, I thought you guys were working on a more soft track? The one with the vinyl crackle?

Anyway...

Intro: Hahaaa, recognise that sound Big Grin I like it, but it would have been nice to have a stereo delay (I know, sucks to do it with Reason) with long enough feedback, 6 ticks. Would give it a more open feel I think.
The second sound has a nice stereo image to it and contrasts nicely.
Nice beating bassline. Try letting it stick out a bit more in the mix.
Reece is very phat too, good EQing job on thatone!
Tramen: sounds good, but I'm missing some ghosthits to make it more rolling. But maybe you didn't want it to roll?
The reverbed Ouch! is too loud imo.

Lots of little details again, like panning snares in the background and stuff: nice, you guys are really good at that. Unlike me Big Grin

What I'm kinda missing in this track, is a breakdown. Try cutting the track in 2 and putting some part in between with some other elements. Like a string or something. It will add to the scope of the track, becouse now it's the same elements from the beginning to the end, non stop. You did your best to add variations, but having that breakdown will also help to make the track less repetetive.

Sound is quite good!

3.25 for the overall track. Having the breakdown could raise this by a whole point, if done well. You could also use the stuff in the breakdown as an intro instead of dropping right in there Wink
3/5 for the sound

Great opening sounds, and that big ass sound (you know the one) is earth shaking! The sound of this track in general is very big but the beat is lacking punch and is too choppy to rock a dance floor. Some underlying hi hats could hold this track together. Try working with the drum break at 1:53 - that has some punch. The track doesn't really evolve however. This is a professional sounding "track", with tons of little pan and eq variations, great for headphones or a break in a set to grab everyones attention, but I wouldn't say its a fully developed "song" yet.

yea, when i was listenting to it i though the delay could be done a bitt longer or better, some how, it just seemed q bit dry. then i read his comment and i agree with it. the beat is choppy, not once does it flow nice. it gets you kinda wanting to hear a nice long roll, which is good if you deliver it every now and again.
