listening . . . the first sounds struck me as sounding like the ones youd hear in a happy harcore track like "Toytown" or something. I like the melody actually, but one of the last notes sounds a bit off, intentionally maybe . . . but yeah, sort that out. I think the beats are nice, well what youve doen with the loops, fading them in and out works nicely.
Like you sadi yourself the sounds ar e a bit ducious at the start: particularly the bass at around 0:35 i see what its getting at, but just needs to be a little more overbearing, but it works well.
1:38: wow, didn't see that coming . . . lol. like the vocals, and te effects youve got on them. i swear ive heard those exact background sounds in a famous dnb song though, cant remember which . . . I like the switch, but im not really feeling this shit after, with those orchestra hits, dunno its all very dramatic and that, but its too stop start for me . . . i reckon you put in a big rolling bassline, to just hook the listner.
But in general,very imaginative and well produced in as much as I know . . . so nice one :big up:

nice trancestep in the intro alldough some variation in the synth could be usefull (some Fx), drums sounds nice (very nice !).
intro and buildup sound totally different !?
Im not a big fan of that old-skool-hardcore-rave-synth, but those drums are so jungle massive ! bassline is allso nice ( exep for that high stereo at 5:00)
Structure not that good , you have to work on that. And 6:14 for a track is a bit too long.
overall: dunno...sound is good , junglebreaks are magnificant, but those hardcore ravesounds not .

Wahoo!!! Yay for the hardcore! The old school style heavy-hoover can still be fresh, and this is proof. I do think the structure needs some work. Excelent drum work tho, everything sounds very crisp and polished.
And that break at 3:47 is sick sick SICK!!
Wow this is great, im embarrassed to post my Reason stuff..... >.<

Not bad musicly, don't care a whole lot for the intro, over used. I like the gothic style synth on the drop, very old school. The FX are good. I like the grindy synth after the breakdown, needs to come out a little more. All else is ok. Z

Top tune.. not much I didn't like. I really like the half speed breakdown bit. And what the tune turns into after that is just pure quality. But before that I reckon the amen could have done with a bit more variation. Like juggling it about and stuff... and maybe make it a little shorter. I loved all the sounds you used. They fit together perfectly... and the production's pretty mint. Everything sounds nice and crisp.

Yes man!!!
intro: rave synth sucks a bit, but just a bit
0.40: subby is *nicht ganz passend*
drop: voice is cool and fits well! 1.40: basses could be punchier!
bring it on!! bad ass breaks!!!
cool stuff overall, and a lot of variation 
well done!
cheers!!

not a bad intro
good to use to some old school hardcore synths and effects sometimes, its quite a good tune but the when the synth kicks in on 2 mins it seems to go on for to long , you should bring some of the changes in from past 5 mins into the track a bit earlier , just sounds a bit repetative , just my opinion mate
other than that its good, the breakdowns and the realm samples go well, and now hearing it where you got that stab used on 1 of fresh's tracks at 4 mins should of been brought in and out a bit throughout
7 / 10

Nice melodies in the intro, but your choise of sounds doesn't sound very DnB, more house.
Basslines kicking in: distort them a bit more agressively
Ah, the other bassline sounds better
Drop: the amens aren't bad, but some layering for phatening up would be very nice.
The choir stabs are nice.
Your EQing could use quite some work though.

Good clean production at intro. Somethin is not quite right with the sounds at the beginning, out of tune? Major change at 1:40ish. Cool, but the hardcore sounds are pretty outdated, I do like it though. Beats are pretty interesting. Gets wierd at around 4:00, very creative. I like that reverse bass sound.
