it sounds like a rip start to a chain saw or something, make it rip twice and then go low, really low - dont come back up so often. everything sounds real good.

again this isnt the kind of dnb i like, but it sounds good. good vocal usage. the melody is a bit stop start choppy, and doesnt really have a hook.

9/10

Ok so the beats are coll, nice pads , proper use of vocals and good basseline....
One exeption: The intro doesn`t comes much like it is linked with the main.
Otherwise good sound quality but I advice you some more compression on the drums( ratio 4:1, treshold -10.5, attack 10ms and release 30ms) but this is only suggestion to get i t more pumped otherwise it is ok ( or I just have those speakers so...)
Overall very good idea the tune is rolling it has it`s uprides and downrides ....
I will rate this 10/10 Bigup

i dissagreee with the compression usage....if you use that much compression with that threshold...you will have your drums be pushed out of place all over the tune... i have a track on here that is a prime example...(fucking sheep) maybe you remember...spacy track...

but other than that...cheers for your guys reviews...big ups...keep em coming...

er...if your gonna use extreme panning like with the thunder...at least give it some movement........synth stabs are a bit retro in places.......

drop sounds a bit bad company/hive like......but the productions not that amazing .....im not really liking your choice of snare. good programming......needs an over haul in the sound quality department imo.

lol......i just read what you put at the top...."!.hate/envy you"....nah....
and as for the "not having shit on you part" well sir.....i disagree.....

Love the intro, i think the drums sound good.

This is a good track but the main lead seem like its missing some thing , sounds a little thin.

I like the second break but it come to fast. The intro is long and then the first part is over to fast. It would bother on the dace floor.

Really like this one, but a bit to start and stop.

and what's with the attitude(envy/hate), give me a break, i hope you were joking. Superstar producers don't have that attitude... Relax!!!!!!

#1 yes they do have that attitude...goldie and most of the originators are all thugs...do your reading my friend...#2 im no superstar #3...no i wasnt joking...there is a lot of hostility coming from many members towards this site becuase they cant take constructive criticism...the vast majority of the member on this site take a negative review the wrong way and come back and down rate my tracks...Not to mention most of the peopel on this site just judge by how the song is and not technical skills...90% of these people dont take anything seriously and have their feelings hurt...sadly they will never go anywhere and it will stay that way becuase of their attitude...

on another note...cheers for the review Tongue

glad you liekd what you did...and it is a bit start stop....its the idea of the track...keep people on their toes...and this track has been played out already and people went nuts...so i dont agree that the dancefloor wouldnt like it...(jsut from experience but it was just one crowd so who knows in the end)
again cheers...

The drums are really well done, symbles are tight. The thunder sounding sample need's a boost and or to be beefed up. Love that mad phat reeze at 3:40 slippin and sliding all over the place, nice! The bass drum is nice and thick and sounds great in the level sense of things. The keyhits 1:37 ect. seem to be a bit loud. The drum work from3:17>3:40 is brilliant Nice and Phat indeed! Great track, cheers. And thank's once again for zee ear candy. Pleased

Awesome track, I def believe you on the dancefloor presence thing... I do have a rather uneducated question to ask; where did that "Ha!" sample come from that seems to be in every dnb track these days?

waitin

here we go..

nice intro although your synth is alittle louder than need be.. i think if you push it back a bit itll work better...

i like the main drum line and its got style to it... (all of your levels are even) i like your use of electricity sounds go in and out of the storm.. very cool.. Wink

i think that snare hits need to be tuned down a bit..

i like the track tho no doubts about it..

intro starts good with all thos different sounds , hats sounds very clear .
drop isn't very convincing. Massive bassline at 1:48 ( how the **** did you do that? ) but could be a bit volume-down. Drums sounds good , and i like that break-thing at 3:17 ! Anyway it's a nice atmospheric and dark track with a lot of variety and stuff Bigup

Still love how the drums kick in: BOH!

Melodies are nice...

Drop: cool bassline although a bit too agressive in the high-end (above 10khz). Drums: some nice cymbals would really be welcome. Maybe even a tighten up ride. To spice things up. The hats you have now aren't that impressive.

Downtempo part in the breakdown works very well.

Cool track, but it could still use some more work Wink

Love the energy when the drums kick in.
Great punch to the drums
Great fills
good drum line eq
The down tempo drum break at 3:16 is very nice.
love the smack of that one snare
the melody is tense, dramatic
I like the shaping and pulling of the bass, I just don't feel its musical resolution.
If the mid section was a lil' longer I'd play it out and mix it with this white label I've got from the 1st drop through the 3:16 break and switch.(as it is they just don't fit the way I'd want)
Good tune though, more up my alley.

Man this hype, and I like your stop go approach to the track, give 'em a break then let loose again. I like the whole direction of this track, just not 100% sure I'm feelin' some of the synth sounds you chose. I think the bassline synth could use a little less high end, maybe coulda notched that down a bit. But the break work is rippin' man. Definitely could see this movin' some people. Maybe some more atmosphere would have done wonders, you know, more variations in sound effects and what not. Not bad at all though man. I'm not one to rip apart a track and pin point every little error since everyone's got their own spin on things, but from you presented, it's defo good to go and bad ass in it's own right. 9/10 from me. Thanks for sharin' man..... Bigup

drums are nice... they drop nice in the intro...
although i dont really like the intro synth sounds that much.
nice use of sweeps n ear candy.
bassline is killa, although i must agree with surya that its abit agressive with the high.
the Huh sample is used abit much, hear it in lots of tunes.
breakdown beats are nice.
drops nicely.... variation on the beats is nice and heavy.
i dont think that the synths fit too well with the bass, but they do the job.
the heavy ass sub bass is nice.
cool shit.
