Volumes could come up a bit for the intro and the FX can come up. Like the drums, pretty crisp and fast paced. Like the way you used the vocal. Like the second verse or 2:57 alot! Def. picked the pace up alot with the drum work. Z

I'd rather call it minimalistic darkstep or something.
It's kinda cool in it's minimalism 
Basslines don't sound full or warm, so reEQ a bit 
Ah, amenz kicking in: quite nice edits and stuff.
Nice stuff in there, but not really stuff that one makes go "wow"...

well i don't like my tracks anyway , i just want to improve skills .
Like cutting , now i now you can go far with cutting , but there ain't no realy limit.
I think there could be more distortion in this track .
Question : should i drop the hard stuff right away at the first drop too ?
Ok i will edit this track and trow away the minimalistic elements , ad some mo distortion , try to EQ the whole and make it a little harder.
Thanx for replying !

kind of drill n bass thing goin on with some of the beats....the bass sounds a little like a sample from renegade terrorist, but its way to quiet....this isnt a put down but it would be ideal for a fast paced level on a computer game......not what id call dancefloor dnb though......
good use of the samples......the second drop is better....although its a little bit olde skool jungle for my taste....

Nice one, some of the element's in this are insanly good. That wobblin bass is so dam phat man!>1:12 to be exact! Disagree that this wouldn't work on the dance floor! I would certianly get down to this!!And me means get down!!! Nice cuttin all the way threw! Phat gunt drum's!!This is one hell of a solid camel toe man!!Totally digged it. Work with what come's in at>1:12 and loose the amen's in this one. It don't need em imo.

this tune does sound as though is came from a mix cd from '98. i dig it. it seems like there could be one more element in the first body. i really like the core/amen breakdown, it surprised me! the drums are the center of the track. they demanded the most of my attention. it felt as though the levels were even, just not "juicy". the clairity of the bass was very nice. i would like to hear the drums "straighten out" and let the bassline do a simple "stomp". the pace is nice, wouldn't change the layout one bit. i could see a track like this being successful being played out at a dnb exclusive event, not at a rave type thing. would like to feel the atmosphere at the start a bit more through out the tune. the spray can is very cool, try to find a sample of the shaker, maybe sample it yourself. i have a great hip-hop track that uses that element, totally gets peoples attention. peace. don't stop now!

your main drums are alright, i dont think they are too exciting. they become more exciting when u have the crazy amen edits behind them.
the intro is cool. i liked what u did with the vocal. and the chopper n spray paint n shit... why dont you have any rappin?? u got drop some. lol
the riffs are nice n greyone twisted style.
some cool ideas. i think the first drop is abit strange, but built up well. dunno mayb just the eq on the bass or something. or maybe i think conga toms are abit loud first off.
anyhoo nice edits n change ups n shit. lil tweakn to b done.
keep it up mate.

Sup grey, hey man, you made some good points there. Look at each track as a way to hone them skills. Take each review as a suggestion rather than just a review. I liked the track actually, as others said tho, it's a little minimalistic, but it has it's qualities too over the original which makes it very different. You got alot of good things lined up, like the breaks. The breaks are actually cut and edited nicely. I just think now it's a good time to go back and fill in the blanks to make it sound more dark and sinister. Now here's what I would do, and you can take it how you want as everyones got their own styles but I thought maybe you could use some input. For the intro, I would have worked in some hihat work, filled it out maybe with a pad and brought some other sound effect stabs from time to time in there. I wouldn't have brought those drums in soo soon. Maybe have dropped it off in some silence for a couple of seconds before the main drop. Stamp it with a good stab and then BANG, drop in the breaks with a heavy bassline. Then pretty much from the drop, it would be a good time to lay your signature style on it. I don't think I would drop my hardest shit in that early tho, maybe balance it to where you kinda gradually build the pace, then the second drop should be where you let your colors shine. It's kinda like trying to lure the listener into keep listening, like throwing little bits in there along the way to make them feel it's gonna blast off by the second drop. But as I said man, thats how I would approach it and my way sure as hell prolly aint the best way lol. Also too, yeah maybe try maximizing your sound a bit more and boost your low end. I'm thinking I'm gonna have to take a stab at this joint, got me thinking now lol. Hope I've kinda helped tho man, i know it aint much but it's the best I can do for now. Good tune overall tho, just go back and rework your magic on it.

Liked the build up intro
Your bassline loses it deepness when any breaks are playing. Too me it seems it needs some more depth to it.
