Allright ...
So here you are again with some exelent stuff....
Even thoug the tempo is like old skool I must admit you got a hell of a tune there...
Likle the snouzy sound s in the backround...
Didnt liked the vocals( but that is a metter of taste)....
Very "remindong" track I must say...
Layered everything as it should ( as always) ....
Again I am completely satisfied by this tune ...
I would rate it 10/10 Bigup
Keep it up men

i like the intro and the beat. I love old school so it was really cool to hear your track. The sounds are nice and chill and the drop is good. To be critical, I'd say that your kick is a little bit too strong. I also feel that more of the song should have a beat. Apart from that like the patterns, bass and all that.
nice one

wow some none techy stuff, excellent. nice nice summer vibe, like this type of synth and the vocals are nice aswell. the drop at 2:05 is nice, and i like the stuttery beats however i do think the drop was a bit on the under whelming side if you know what i mean. need a BIG pounding sublow to come in , basically more bass for the whole tune, i can hear it but its not loud enough.

check out Take Your Soul - NC & Ascend for some similarly slowwed down jungle, it will probably give you some pointers.

but mate i really like this, totally feeling this vibe chill as a fuck. big yourself up!!!!

Don't really like the emo-stuff ... I was a little shocked acctually !

I thought your name 'Darkside' was meant for heavy dark evil shit ...
Guess I was wrong ... Big Grin

Now about the song, as I said don't really like the emotional sounds and all, ok it's relaxing but the bpm is a little too slow ain't it ...

The vocals are also too emo for me, don't like that in a dnb song ..

But the kicks and snares and hihats al fit together and they all change perfectly according to the synth ... good job on that ..

6/10 ... as I said not my cup of tea .. Smile

whoa, very nice!!!

made me remember the good old vibes.. noone mixes this stuff anymore idd

beats are good, as are the breaks. the shuffled highat is a nice touch

that funky guitar (sample?) is just awesome, the way it fits in.

only 1 thing: you could play a catchier melody with that subbass which is superb sounding

since thats nowhere near a production comment.. this is some serious stuff - awesome!!!

keep up Bigup

Neat! I like it very much it is completly true to the oldschool feel. I remember listening to stuff like this. Even though it it slower it's perfectly beautiful sounding. I like the vocal what is it? I love when after the drop it goes to the part with nothing but bass and drums...awsome sounds just like back in the day that part made me especially laugh. I can't really complain it is exactly what you said. I especially like the ambient parts in the background. Great job!

woo hoo i won a sexy picture.
the vocal is me singing.

@ passdaj - hang around for a while and you'll hear me do some heavy evil dark shit Bigup , i can understand why you don't like this.

and thanks for the reviews everyone!
i'll say it again, i didn't expect the tune to be this well-received as it's so oldschool...didn't know so many around here remembered that age.

nice tune matey. come down stuff. i think that if you occassionally, and especially in the second drop, you should cut the bass length and a couple of pounding bass hits. so it goes, and i hope you get this, boooooooooooooooooooom bum bum bum, with the the kicks.

9/10

Nice track, good vocal, you should do some more vocals

Your mix is perfect, maybe the snare could use more of a boost.

Very nice relaxing song. I would wait a bit for the second drop. it seems to rushed Bigup

amazing intro!!

love the ambience and vocals.. nice delay and reverb!!

but it never really droped for me... need a bit more to filll out the mid and high i reckon

the bass is real nice in the intro but you should have used a more a faster rollie and more hearable one after the drops

awsome tune though.. easy listening Smile
