Real wicked vibe goin on in this tune.
The drums flow nice + variate alot which is fat! I like the sound of the amen but I think it's a bit off. You might wanna try cutting it in Cool Edit with the splice feature using a click track. Or you can use Recycle with Reason. Does Fruity Loops come with a splicing feature? Whatever werks! Personally I use Cool Edit to get in there + SLICE!!!! But it's very time consuming so I don't recommend it. I feel cheap unless I'm werking with waveforms for some strange reason.
Great sound FX and twisted voice samples. Those background strings/pads are real dark. They fit the mood well. Cool! Wanna hear mo from ya!

Sick bass line! You used a scrath from absynth for it? I think the track lacks something try using an arpigiated synth in there. other wise 3/5 great intro by the way

good begenning, maybe a bit too much reverb at1.50 but the break is good, the voice just appear here and there, nice but too light imo. Otherwise, very good tune

what do you use to distort the bass?
you use Trancer in there?
other than that, i don't know anything i can say to this song, which is damn nice.

Very deep sample at the start. Nice drum clips - some very nice little hat rolls there. Maybe a bit of reverb or filtering there so it doesn't sound like a false start. Love the pitch up sound and then that HUGE sound leading up to the drop
Is that absynth too? I still can barely figure that keyboard out - just seems hard to work with. Ya, that sound is almost too big because when the bass drops it doesn't sound as big as it actually is. Maybe let that sound simmer down before the drop. Some great dark sounds here with tons of ambient effect (ex. the big one in the "distance" at 2:50). The bass line sort of meanders and doen't really have a catchy or rolling pattern to it. Like the back and forth variations at 4:00 however. Any drums programmed here or all loops? Nothing wrong with that however, lots of variation and filtering done including the nice build up to the second drop and the filter out at 6:20. Epic tune with tons of great sounds - my style for sure. Just a bit more structure and this will be fucking damn good - for now you'll have to settle for damn good.

that HUGE sound leading up to the drop is absynth.. so is the main ambient sound
thanks for the detailed review Nosrac

yo
Too light is not exactly the word but since there are really good, maybe just add a little bit more volume to them, there will be more intense, giving to the track a bit more break time to drop again: huge i think!!!!!
don't get me wrong, this is one of my favourit tune so far, specialy your sequence defenetly sound dnb, damn, can't do that yet...
niece piece of work, took u long? peace

NO!!!!! Keep that Amen. It's sounds fucking awesome. I think some simple cutting would fix the sample right up.

i think ive fixed up the amen now... it was actually 2 layered drum loops... and it wasnt quite in time.. so as you suggested i chucked them into cooledit.... which was perfect for doing this sort of thing cos you can see whats going on.. unlike with the FL slicer
sounds much tighter now... hopefully i will have finished a new version in a week or so...
cheers

cool eery intro,
build-up is nicely done, nice beats and bass.
Very dark style. after the build-up where the bass comes in it's all too confusing . the sounds kinda don't come out right.
Nice griity track but the beat could be louder.
3/5
