Please check out my new track 'Persian Empire' and post your comments here!!!
Probably the hardest track i ever made ...
I finally found how to make cutted drums.
Maybe the eq'ing is not perfectly , but you know that has never been my best part.
I filled up all the freq. , cutted alot and distorted a bit as usual. Just another greyone cocktail.
Bon a petit.
This track has been deleted on the producer's request

Cool intro greyone, nice how you did the mysterious sphere ... nice drumz that are comin' in, softly comin' from the back till hardknocking in the front ... are that violins ... either what it works with the synth, it's got a very operah-feeling 
movie kinda style ...
The voice-sample is great, you mixed it cool ... loving the bassline, stonecold ... you got allot of classic music- noises inthere mate ... where did you get those? ... Cool fucking track ... you posted some pro-shit here man ... drums are great, evereything works together ... you created a real vibe true the whole song ... the melodie is catchy ...
Hardest song ever ... deserves a 10 from my side
10/10 Great stuff !
Shizza my crizza nizza, c ya lizzaaaa

By the way ... I checked 2 songs of you, Greyveyard and Disturbed ... I compared these 2 songs with your new one here and I must say you improved IMMENSE !!!!!
Your drums sound much more complicated than in the others ... nice improvement I must say 
in such a short time, what did you eat ???

some of the stutters on the amen are a bit messy, but not all of em.
you could do something more original with it...adding effects wise, or layering...instead of just using the whitebread sample.
no idea what the vocal says...but its cool i guess
hmm...u dont really add many new sounds after a while, you just expand on what was there before.
this says about all it has to say in the first three minutes.
you don't actually have that many problems in here...but its not quite 10/10. not yet
the end of the track is kind of abrupt. make it flow in better...
you got some ok work here, but you got all the time in the world to beef it up. new sounds, and make some of the generic stuff a little less generic with clever effect usage.
peace.
6/10

shit all high mid freqs... heaps of low freqs.
vox are cool. drop is alright, although it sounds poorly EQ'd (not meaning to b harsh)
the drums are abit dodgy in some bits...
most the lil edits are nice. some are strange.
agree with darkside that not much more happens... just massive bass n amen beats. sounds fx n stuff are nice... cool ideas fo sure, just the overall tune needs some quality eq work, and she will be fine.
keep up the good shit bruz
7/10

kinda weird, but your amen edits remind me of this dude i know from somewhere else, not a bad thing, just never heard anyone else edit amens like that. I wasn't too crazy about alot of the amen edits tho, as darkside pointed out, kinda messy in spots, but you got some really good ones in there. I noticed you like flanging beats too man, i think you did that in another recent track of yours, but this time it's done better. Hmmm maybe it's not intentional flanging, could be the MP3.Hows that sub coming along BTW? Don't be scared of it man, gotta work that shit. I'm only headphone listening now man cuz its soo late, cops would be here in no time man if i let loose this late, but they got really good bass response and power but just doesn't sound like it's hitting as hard as it could. Maybe it's just me man, but the overall quality sounds kinda ehhh, soo soo. Maybe it's just the 128k bitrate. Structure seems ok, just not alot going as others have mentioned. Seemed to have alot of room to work some other sounds in it. Maybe that wasn't your intention tho, either way it's cool. Sounds like a little panning on the breaks too, not sure, maybe my ears are fucked tonight. 
But anyhow man, your breaks I have noticed are become more complex and more proper sounding, good job on that. Overall it's respectable tho man, but maybe work the eq'ing better and add more elements and it may just be a 10/10, but I'll go with an 8/10.

whats up liking the intro. It's cool how the beats fade in. Is there flange on the amens? This is interesting. The violin lines are nice. Makes me think of the desert in the middle east. Second drop is cool. I like the bass a little better in the second part. The amens sound cool.

Right on man this sound's like something I would try and do, key word, "try" Don't have the skills yet. This is the best dam track I've heard in a while, just love how dam agressive this is! Kicked me right in the heed! Those violin's are beutifull, you've managed to make it sound like there's a real orchistra crankin allong with your mad ass track! This is a true work of art! Killer track name too. Your amen edit's are freakin out of this world, how you do that fasty loopy thing, i obviously can't figure out how to put it into word's, would really love to know how that's done? This is a monster man! Fucking brilliant to say the least!!

Thanx for listening and reviewing.
-No flanger : chorus
-Magnificant strings , arent they.
-I fucking hate eq.'ing
-Maybe the sub could be louder , but i didn't want to fuck up the other sounds.
-Not many sounds : today i leave on holliday and i wanted to post this track asap.
-my improvement : All day morning-till-night practice , i feel like a robot now.
-generic stuff ? what's that?
-Next time i change the bitrate again to 320.
-...
Maybe i'll give it a try and re-eq. it and do the above mentioned things.
See you later guys.

Drums filtering sound a bit weird, did you put a chorus on them or what?
Anyway, that bassline that comes with them doesn't go with the melody from the intro.
Drop: Great drumedits! Melodies are a bit messy. A bit too messy for my taste. Also not too fond of your choice of synthesised string sounds... that sounds cheesy, you know?
Overall the EQing is quite poor. The track has little punch and sounds thin... Especially the bass needs work!
The track becomes a bit boring after a while too, despite the variations and edits. Too much of the same stuff...

nice ill-matic synth on the intro splendid work
nice work cuttin those breaks man
nice persian touch too
to my personal opnion the amen-break really didn't need a flanger
subs an those short poundin basslines should be turned up a bit
i liked greyvyard better but lookin' to the musical aspect.....you progressed a whole lot
keep it real
ps. have fun re-equalising

Yeh i was going the wrong path i guess , i'll stick to the phat basslines and dark atmospheres again.
tnx for the comments.
I think i'll try some dark techstep next time .

Nice intro synth - s'rollin with the theme - cool
nice fade in on the breaks - but not feelin the fx on em, sounds chorussy?
Man your choon seems to drop way too soon like your givin up your bass line
a bit like prematurely! make em wait 4 it
it will add more impact when it lands
track lacks 'clarity' - too many sounds competin with each other in the middle of the mix
try pannin em across the spectrum but not too wide!
I know eq can suck but trust me when u get your head around it your tracks will kick ass lad!
be patient.
Was hopin for a little change up melody wise but apart from that it chugs along okay.
by the way, I was usin dot t.k but only as a shortened URL provider
didnt know you can lose your actual website? strange
Im originally with geocities, but just dot t.k as a second URL

All the elements and the way you combine them are dope, good melodies and atmospheres and stuff.. but the eq'ing is not 'there' yet as you stated.
The amens in the beginning sound a bit too over-chorus/phaser/panned.
In the rest of the track you could try to delete some amen hits here and there to make it a bit more normal - while maintaining the cut-up mangling.
But way too go in any case.. nice job

yep , eqing sucks as always
but i've read some articles about eq'ing on the site www.computermusic.co.uk
And i must say , i learned alot from it;
Now i know the frequenty got fuck up at the 'muddiness' area (200 - 800Hz) . I'll clean this up in the future for shure.

I guess it has all been said, from the messy basses 'till the cheesy synths...
Actually, a song like this with those sick edits on the Amens, should munleash the Rage in me, and this might do the trick if you get rid of the messy bass and get the snares right, they don't stick out enough, and sound a bit too techy to me too, maybe due to the chorus????
But certainly don't give up on this style just yet, I like it a lot... And indeed as Soi stated, loosing some of the beats can make it stutter a lot more... Like that..
But certainly: Way good job, can't wait to hear this one in a new jacket...
Ok just a little Edit: the second drop at about 2.35? That's the dope I'm searching for, though a bit too much going on, loose the synths there, just let the drums & the bass speak for themselves, that's more than enough, insert a sudden lack of drums at a point where we don't expect it.. Now it's like too much info, in songs like this I like it when it's just really 'dry', bass and drums only... The drop at 4 minutes is too much alike...
Also a bit too much of the "TRRRRRRRR"- snares if you ak me (sorry, don't know the right term).. love it, but not that much...
Love sickness, this is my dope, think it makes the nerves in my head all trigger in the same time, love it...
The more I listen to this one, the more I'm waiting in anticipation to hear a slightly cleaned up version of this one, don't waste this one!!!!
