youve been usin alot of reverb in you mixes lately.. be carefull, in a big room it will sound shitty with all that reverb and it will take the power out of your mix big time. reverb should be used very lightly. good method is to turn the reverb up untill it is noticeable then back it off 15 percent.

Shocked , sounds interesting, the bass at 0:33 comes in very smoothley, good job. The beats could use a little snare change though Wink

For an intro it was pretty good :o But change the snare and make sure that the main part comes in the right and pumpy way, lopl Big Grin

Great build up, true about the reverb, especially on big sound system, will multiply it by 10....
the drum part is good to me and as I prefer dark style, u should dark this a bit....as with your your bass kicking at 33s, just love it, look forward to hear the rest

OK with this intro you need tro drop it in real dark and nasty. Come in with a heavy bass line and once it drops bring in some chopped up amens. get dirty with this one. You have something here. Parash AKA Kleric

you got a good ear for melody man. sounds cool so far. I think it would be nice to hear just the drums and the base break out alone at this point and slowly bring the pads and synth noises back in.

just a thought. oh, and turn up the bass man, it sounds sick.

cheers! Bigup

the very begining is pretty bad, that's the only part don't like
pad's are a very rich sound, that are good once the song has started, there not wise to start off with. it's like starting off with a deep bass, it just doesn't go very well.
maybe cut the opening pad, and just have the hihats, a few in then the first bell hit, or what ever it is. then kick the opening pad in with the drums.

but after that it kicks into gear VERY well. kick ass, you got all elemnts there VERY SMOOTH< and i want to hear the full version.

that's a god point about whewre to go, you could let it run like it has been fora bit longer with simular sound. just feels like it would continue like that a bit more at least. maybe for the climax go deep down nasty, that would really spice the song up. and i am a fan of just ging into a totaly different directions in mid song, then going back to the original, like a meadly.

where'd you get that amazing snare? is it a loop sample? and what program did you use?

Holy goddamn shit - what comes in at :45 is brilliant. Building this for another minute or so - perhaps gradually adding little amen snips and then stopping just like this one does is the perfect set up for a HUGE drop. Use the same sounds, pitch the bass down a key, keep the notes dark and continuous, with a rolling complicated beat underneath and you'll have a rippin' tune. The very start sounds too empty and the ride and synth sound weak, but this is quickly remedied at 0:12. Nice and essential progression but the high pitch vibe/pipe sound has gotta go. The bass is absolutely perfect along with the pads that come in soon after. Where the hell or how the hell did you get that bass sound? I've been looking for something like that for ages. And like I said before, what develops at 0:45 is monumental - seriously 5/5 shit! Turn this into a complete song and you're cookin' with gas brotha! Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight on!

Intro has some kind of a cheesy "horror house movie" feel to it Smile Not really my taste, but well done. Works well with the wobble bassline that comes in, and moves into a nice trancey melody. Nice beats too. Cuts away quite abruptly.

Quite nice transition and thus a nice intro

2.5/5

Bass wap wap is the best element in this song.
Very warm analogue sound, a sound that a lot of people try to imitate and fail. As for the rest of it Keep going to it. I love your little sighn off thing.
Im the same way never give up dude.

Intro is nice, althought I dont like the melody, and the sound of it isnt really my style. Beats are great! Keep those.
But I think you should go for a dark song. I think that could really work out great!
I dont know if this reply is worth anything, but Im really interested in the final result.

Still got this one on my desktop a week later and still hummin' the 0:45 drop and its inspired a whole tune I've been working on (ended up sounding completely different). Ya, the sound on the keyboards should change during the opening bit, but again - the sounds and everything at 0:45 is unique, dark, melodic and still blowin' my mind. Please finish this track - where the hell have ya been bro?
