oh shit dave! this is a serious take on this. unfortunately i had to download this onto another comp as i just got my new system up and running, just have no damn sound card yet as im working on getting the money together for th eone i want. i just had to burn this and listen on the system, but wholy hell man, you straight layed this shit down, seriously better than i did. man actually soo far it seems everyones remixes on this has just blown the original out the water, but thats cool tho, good to hear soo many takes on it. unfortunately im kinda crippled on getting any new tunes accomplished or even listened to until i get this damn sound card, pretty shitty, got a rockin ass sytem, just no sound card. great take my man, id love to hear this shit when you properly run the mixdown. serious ass kickin shit right here. big upz my man, definitely got my vote!

nice intro arrangment... nice atmosphere... the filterd drums are nice.
the bass comes in really nicely with the atmosphere behind u.
awwwwwwwwwww i really liked the extra down pitchd rise!!! evol lol
nice reece action... bass is a mother fucker... goood job on that shit.
and the atmosphere sounds really nice behind it all. nice little delyd stab fx in there. drums are mean... nice fx on them. nice little change ups... id say this is the best remix... arrangment wise.... does need to be mixed down properly, but im sure u will do a good job of that.
reece is tight in the break. this tune will do some serious dammage once mastered Big Grin

awesome job with the bass. the drop is fkn nice.... the beast in side you... *slam* fkn twisted fxs goin off... yeah boooyyy.

ohh...drum break is so sweet and punchy.
fx are sick.
ugg...except for the one thing with three notes that probly came from an fm synth, sounds like an answering machine tone or something. i dont like that at all.
bass has been heard before, but, who cares, you did it right.
i have to know what you do your atmospheres with, man. it's all i ask. just for a push in the right direction.
always with those choir stabs. still good i guess, but you use em a lot.
could use some more sounds, but that's just me, im not always into these new, driving, dark tunes, cuz im a listener not a dancer most of the time.
can't wait for the final. rockin.

you trying to say we is stupid because we dont listen to our own beats and our flavour???

man i could say im more for action then boring jazz shit.

thats the thing i dont like about you... always putting your point across like its the right way and if people dont do it your way they are "stupid" or something similar.

stfu with ur way.

i think i speak for most when thats just taste, and simple comment and didnt mean anything by it... he simply likes to sit down and HEAR every lil thing when it comes to a track rather than jsut go nuts to a dark roller... dont flip out...

as far as the track goes...sick..

and what im saying is the people who make it dont just make it for dancing, they sit down n listen to the shit also. and its the way darkside put the point across. but i should just be quiet and not upset people.

sorry for hi-jackin the thread.

intro and breakdowns are wicked!

nasty edits Big Grin

... drums sound like they have a bit too much effect on em. makes em sounds dark and evol though wich is good!.. but after the drop the drums get lost in that reecey bass... it all sounds a bit messy and mashed

apart from that its a fat tune Bigup

is this tune up for remix??? where can i get my hands on the files!

but your name is darkside, man. thats a bit misleading isnt it?

anyway. dave, cool track

i like the intro. drums sound a bit distant... but good.

yea, your drums do some pretty sweet stuff after the drop.

i like the background fx's (synth hits and horn) could be a bit louder though.

i wasnt too into the main melody of the track but the production is exellent.

proper attention to detail.

nice one! Rinse

Hey whats up? Beast was cool track to remix huh? Like the intro drums are tight. I chose to keep the horrorish sound out. What is that sound at the drop? It's like a small wehh sound. It's really excellant sounding. Nice bass lines ripping man!!!I like how the subs are first then the distorted. The little choirs are a nice touch. After the second break is very nice reminds me of a tech itch mix a little. Good stuff!!!Oh yeah checked out the anime page you suggested it was cool I'm downloading the first naruto episode. Other than that I've seen everything else on there or I have it. There are a few that it would be nice to see free. Thanks for the suggestion.

Very nice, allthough the snares are a bit messy sounding. Try making them a bit more punchy that they sound less like one big rumble of snares. The number of snares and ghosts is nice though, giving the track a nice rolling feel. I guess it's a matter of EQing and compression.

yes...i suppose. it's gonna be project blue once i'm in the pros...you see i started out wanting to make dark shit but now i think im more inclined toward heavy positive vibe tracks or smooth jazzy stuff.

This is cool, Really nice and dark, very evol intent.
The atmosheric stuff is nice and give a good backing for the tune,
The drop is cool too, nice vocal editing.
I think that the low end sounds really muffled and the bass loses any real note and just turns into rumble, which is a shame cause its a nice tone.
As I said very Evol style, possible a little to much as its not very original sounding, especially the high slides on the bass.
Still its a cool tune, very driving and dark, possibly a little repetitive.
Would like to hear a proper mastered version of this because at the moment it all sounds muddy. Also a little more variation in the drums wouldnt go amiss either.
