Please check out my new track 'tEnSion' and post your comments here!!!
This one is a pretty industrial, dance floor driving track. I used logic 7 es2, sculpture, and some samples. It took me a while to mix this one. Let me know what you think
Respect

Kick ass track. Your drums are fat, especially those smooth bongos and clean cymbles rolling allong in the background. The levels sound great on my speaker's. You've produced some really original sounds in this track. Your track's are allways a pleasure, glad to hear your back in action, cheers.

okay listening
make a less just a less louder your hihats 
but its not necessary
drums are good , nice atmo
drop is normal , you can make it more powerfull 
but its just a little thing to change but whole track is interesting , really original , but only work more with bass and you will got very good your own styla
Cheers man , waiting new from ya

hmmm vanguard or z3ta........
snare has a bit to much reverb on it, try gating it....production sounds good.....
.finally!!!! someone able to give their drop some impact.......its been a rare thing on here recently.....my only real complaint is that this sounds a little distant......feels like it should be more pounding and upfront than it is......and i think it needs a bigger change later on to keep it interesting.

it's like the soundtrack to a movie or game.... it's weird. you got different elemtns, like real drums than you hear this little ping from a 909 hihat... and little snickets of vocals peeping in. it gives an uneasey feelings, you play with panning samples, distracting and haunting.
that's the second half of the track.
the first half is a bit more contemporry ith the classic sound of delayed strings. but than it hits that bass solo and its like a new track starts up.
it's a different sort of track, but it really lacks cohesion. you need one good vocal sample that's clear words to make this tied together, or better yet, a definde melody. something to stamp it. a hook it's called in songwriting.
even just a simpel melody repeated int he begingin or the end, something with groove will make this track seem more together.
differnet instruments can play it, just that sound will keep it going.
since there's no sound that makes it sound whole. like how the bass changes,a dn mostly differnet vocals, a lot of differnet sample sused, not bad, it keeps it insteresting, just, melody or one txt would keep it stiched together.
like where's you head by basment jaxs, it goes all over, but the one line, and the one melody keep it continuos.

hello listening to your track. I love the trance line haven't heard a better one. The beat is a little unusual but interesting. I'm not really feelin the drop everything is good but that bass it's kind of hard muffled. It should be louder. I like the drums the second drop sounds good.
It's just not really my thing. Good work though.

woa ho ho!! very nice, having a nice little love in with this track!
Love the synthy trance sound, very cool. First drop could be a little harder, congo bongos are nice touch, great track alhtough little more presence could be placed on the lead, apart from that sounds great! very well put together, you didn't leave much to critic on this one!
Cheerieo matie!

Drums sound a bit muffled and in the background. Make them a bit dryer and more up front 
Cool bassline, like it!
Wow, SERIOUS sub! Very cool to listen to, but acually you've overdone it a bit, to be honest.
Those stringlike hits are well done, but I'm not too fond of them. They sound a bit too housey and happy.
Quite good tune, but a bit less sub

Another really big prof. sounding intro. Like the snare on the drums when they come in but could be a bit louder with another brighter snare layered underneath at about 10%. Hats are nice and spread in the intro, but should tighten up when that massive drop hits. Love the evil key change right before the drop and the old brush roll is awesome. Wicked bass sound, nice stops and rolls throughout. There's one synth thats player the 3rd below your bassline that interferes a bit, maybe drop the bass too at that instant. Drums need to be maximized, doubled, layered or whatever it takes to fill them out - that alone would make this an absolutely killer track. Your best yet I think - dark, spacious and heavy with some nice subtle twists and rolls. Right on. 8/10

didnt really get into this at first.. but after a few listens this has really grown on me... the bongo fillins are cool... also the trance sounds/stabs really work in this better than ive heard in any other track since amazon rain...
sound levels are spot on all round which does give it that driving feel along with the exellent sub in there too... drums are a bit different but like i said... it grows on you..
very enjoyable track mate
