cheers mate.
yeah there is a hell of alot of room for variation, better (well what wouldn't be?) builds and drops etc. Basically, this is just the idea, but I wont have time to work on it for ages, so I htought I d just get some advice now. Upping the beat punch is a good suggestion, I'll definately do that.

Nice intro and nice rappy...:-)))
The beats are somehow quiet maybe if you compress them...
Nice variations and interesting melodies....
Overall very good work
If i rate it i would give it 8.5 -10
maybe a little more mastering and premastering wouldn`t harm 
Keep it up men it just rools the track just like a real horsemen

This is a constructive but brutally honest opinion of your track.
Ive been producing DnB for 6 years now and talkin from experience
I know how tough this genre is to satisfy the 'purists' so take it from me!
Firstly Im not really into choppin peoples heads off though I might be tempted
if someone pushes me that far but that for me doesnt belong in music.
Secondly, that fact that your'e honest enough to admit to knockin this track up
in a day basically does you or your intended audience no justice!
If you want to take you & your music seriously YOU HAVE TO PUT THE WORK IN.
You cant afford to be lazy!
Regardin the track itself, It feels to me like its directed towards a commercial market,
the structure for this genre is very much DJ orientated, and if your structures not
right they won't buy it/or play it anywhere.
Your sounds are conflicting with each other and not gelling, causing listener confusion
your timestretch before the drop is done wrong and needs to be tweeked less.
On the plus side your vocal sits okay and overall mix quality is good.
On the basis of this review im going to score a 4 out of 10.
Im not the perfect producer myself and Im still learnin myself however if I can assist
you with any advice regarding the above or for any other techy stuff feel free to contact me. Dubcupboard.

Cheers man, I appreciate the honesty.
I put the track up here because I did it so quickly, rather than despite it: its not a "Serious" tune per se, I was just happy I could make the guy rap in time with the tune, and thought the thing itself was quite catchy! The builds and that are just horrible - the time stretch is a joke, and then i bring in like four totally new layers at once with no introduction.
Same as everything else, you do have to put the work in, couldn't agree more. But therin lies the rub

nice track but i can't seem to stop missing something called synchronisation it's there but the beat ain't there to make it sound right but anyway it's a great idea for a track nice one

I like this ... OK, at the intro, the lead organ sound comes in at the same time as the lyrics, maybe cut that lead from there to make the lyrics more pronounced (lyrics seem a little drowned at that point IMO). I like the drop with the time streched vocs, but I agree with whoever said that it needs to be tweeked. Kind of a Aphrodite feel to this track (if you don't mind me sayin so). Way cool, love the way is all flows. Very tight.

definitely a nice intro man, you got some damn cool ideas! im not sure bout the synth that hits when the vocals first come in, it kinda distracts from the impact of the vocals. cuts kinda abruptly to the first break but dude it sounds wicked when it kicks in!!
I like the overall feel of the track it all works well together. My only suggestion would be to maybe to a darker version of coz those I think those rough raps would also work well with a rougher tune.
Good stuff mate!

Hmmm, hiphop vocals, not too fond of that. Quite well done though.
Drop: melody and vocals are quite overpowering. The bass needs a boost and the drums too.
For my taste the vocal is a bit too much all over, making it all a bit samo samo
