nice name
interested to see what the dnb equivalent of getting sloppy seconds is
mate this is the tune f slippery slopes clipz
im sure oyu knew that
whatever i like organ type sounds, so its ok
not sure teh melody in the build up relalyl does thebusiness however, but i like the idea of the speeding up the melody
well its an interesting take on the original theme, but i think the drumsa re a bit standard, een though you mix them up well, its like standard
switches around and that, but it lacks that cool distinction betwweeen the sub sublow and high melody that the original had i thnk. the melody s alrite though what ouve done with it.
actually slippery slopes with an amen type beat is a good idea i think in essence but i still think this hasnt doen th ejob really

sound quality very muffled indeed but im imagining that you could still freshen up a lil, even in the good version.
the way you sequence the drums at times is kinda unique. not really standard dnb fare. the hihats and the way u just do the amen's snare for the buildups.
dont really like the way you drop the beat, repeating those couple notes of the melody over and over again.
i get what you were trying to do, using a bunch of diff. drums at the 2:51 point switching back and forth, but they just dont flow right.
this song seems to just go off in other directions constantly...its sorta annoying.
and muffled-ass sound is still sorta botherin me.
changeups do keep the beat interesting.
song is too long for what it is, you spread these couple concepts way too wide.
dont know if i can give you much more advice than this, dont really have any spectacular ideas except for more sounds along the way to keep the sections from getting old and overused.
5/10

just had slippery sloped stuck in my head when started making this tune not exactly the same but very similar
never really liked the build up either just didn't seem right
i'll get rid of the chopped up bit too i c what u mean
sound quality a lot better not all muffled in the wav version that was the hjighest quality i could export to mp3 from cubase for some reason

i like the rythem of the hats in the intro... the kick seems a little over powering though.. the synth i hear in the backround(?) i can barely hear it.. ys that? 
i like the techy feeling of the intro ... very jumpy ... tension building ... here we go ... long ass intro ...
man nice drop...
... the cutting is right. reminds me of some exile style cuts.. i think that you need to switch the synth upo every once in awhile...
the breakdown at 2.55 :bigthumb: nice work ...
