This is real nice.
I like the chords at the beginintg. I think it might be worth giving the drums longer to build up, because the effect of them building up to the breakdown would be much more effective.
I dont really like the bass tone. Stands out far too much.
I think something warmer would suit a lot better. It might work if you used the bass sound later in the tune.
I just think that the vibe of the chords demands something a lot more subtle. Besides. It is a fairly lack luster bass sound. Just not very interesting. You could try automating the filter a lot more but then you might detract from the chords further and I think that they should hold the main interest for the track.
It might work nicely if you built up the intro with a fairly light sounding pad, and build up the drums up to the breakdown. Then bring in a warm bass sound and thick pads and build it up again, adding thicker and thicker chords. Layering the Pads untill its almost too much.
Then drop the dirty bass sound with a different, more aggresive vibe and massive drums for a total change in the dynamic. Finally bring in the chords again to complete the package.
Dont really have any critcism to give with concerns to the actual production. Its all very tidy, If this tune had a good structure then it could be Really nice.
I hope this is helpful. Please let me know when youve done more to the tune, as Id like to hear how it turns out.

the strings n pads n shit at the start were nice...
the drums built nicely. kick punches through nicely.
i like the way the bass comes in... your on the dance floor smashed, ur listening to the intro, then this mass reece smacks u in the face, u get ready for a heavy drop, and it comes, and u go stupid.
like the reverb on the bass. drops well there i think.
mix down well
nice use of effects n shit.
nice work mate. finish it

Nice intro break good drummin

synth work is okay but the melodies a bit run of the mill no offense Wink
doesnt really grab me was hopin for a tingle rush but it didnt happen

something clips or distorts a bit early on too but then levels itself out!

nice drop tho' feelin that,
drums seem to step back a bit on the main rinse
lack a little presence,
maybe roll off a bit on the lead

apart from that yeh a good effort
and a nod to finishing that off!

keep rinsin man

the intro is pretty good, i like the synth lead. pretty. its all very uplifting and the sound is pretty fresh too.
really fat bass! the song seems like it could use a little more energy though. the break seems too weak next to the huge bass.
i don't detect any level problems or anything, you're fine there.
u really give this track a feel, something many, many on this site fail to give their tracks. it's mostly the nice intro that sets the mood. uplifting, like i said before.
keep going with this, adding on new sounds to keep it fresh and you should have a winner!

From the beginning: nice drumworkz:
hmmm the drums from 0:22 onwards sound like two layers on top, but not quantized too well, i hear two kicks and stuff...
Epic synths/pads are nice
Nice work on the panning
Bazz drops ==> whohow
Break+drop
Main drums are better than the first ones, maybe you scould give them a tiny bit more volume or punchiness?

hey hey munki boy

like drummin in intro....good roll (more interesting than mine any how).......
like the reverbed staby bits.....
like the lfo thingy nice euthoric sound......
liking the atmoshere created.....
nice and trancy....feeling all happy clappy....
then drops me back into hell......love the nasty sound and the way it comes in........
oh.......drop not amazing....
drums are hardly any different than they were in the intro......
needs some more filling in the drums....needs a snare with a longer decay and some ride action.
really like it the production and sound are crispy like a sun dried dog turd and the sounds go very well.....
it's a bit BSE and i like
drums i think need more but u might be goin for the minimal sound

good work my cynical friend Bigup

yeh thats what i thought....

.......needs a spoken word sample innit just to top it off......the beats need a rework....and the bass needs to be sorted.but this was mixed on headphones so im not surprised.

Very well done technically. Good melodies, good sounds, nice flow, but ultimatly too trancey for me.

The contrast between the very hi-fi sounds and the kinda analogue lo-fi-ish drums is a bit big maybe? Go for cleaner drums imo

What you have is good, but unless you add something it'll become boring quite fast...

Nice crispy beat, Sounds great when it drops out then a fill

and bring in new sounds @0:22. Really nice hats BTW. Ok so

it'g getting really trancy. Good tune for the E. Yes! nice

bass, could use a layer of sub though, or if its there bring

'em out more. Good track ,it needs to build up to epic proportions, if you choose

to go for this type of sound, you may as well take it all the

way.

very good track as well... nice and progressive at the start just the way i like it... very well worked with the changeover... has the same kind of atmosphere as the classic bad company-planet dust tune... drops well..drums are tight and well worked with the fills... promising track which deserves a finish Bigup
