alright man, this starts off without any intro.
that beat sounds a lot muffled up but you already know that, it's also off-beat, I'm not sure that the second snare hits in the right place. I just got up, lol I'll give it another good listen later
I like hte crackly vinyl feel in this, the delays give it a very old skool hip hop feel to it, sound wise illbient, like something you would hear off the Ninja Tunes label.
I'd seriously reconsider using the delay on basses and esp. subs, while it works well on the midrange and highs, the basses are somewhat tricky to get right
I don't feel it's empty, just because the whole spectrum isn't used doesn't make it empty. sounds fit each other and thats most important
as for the mixdown, it's decent apart from the super loud sub hits, so watch out for those
not much else to comment on, keep working on it as it clearly has potential, I like the feel and the atmosphere you created

Right on for the old school comment,..that's what im shootin for with this track,...ive allready added a bunch of variation to the drum's,..im lovin the feel of this track,..allot less confuzing than "Donkey Stone"....
Krs1 is my fav man,..in my day when i listened to hip hop it was all about KRS1!!...you know of any legal krs1 accapela's?,...and if your interested there's a fucking hallarious thread about his nose on d.o.a,..it'll have you in stitchez man,..anyway, love the idea and thank's for the input..cheers Anfo D

i really like the break, then some damn funky edits, but it needs to be cleaned up, and it should have a little more emphsis on the snare. i really like the subs nice but they seem out of sync whit the rest of the atmospheres, and they dont fit together either, the breaks and saub are on the more old school and ragga tip while the atmosphere stuff is to techy sounding. and it feel like a huge amount of the sound spectrum is just missing.
overall i really like this and think it has a ton of potential
good job

Thank's for the word's guy's,...extreemly helpfull,...->the sub's are totally off at the moment,..ive been spendin two much time on equin them and haven't really edited them properly,...so you say more punch on the snare,..good point!
,..ill have to layer another one or something,...sound spectrum on this is a tough one,..this style sound's soo dam good with a sort of empty vibe n all but this really need's something to fill it up?...havin a hard time with that,.tricky shit....thank's for the input Oplin,..and welcome to {dnb.be}--->great site
,...Now for the mighty Nosrac review-->yup!,..i new something was off with the breaks used,..it's deffinetly not the bpm
,..but your right,..the break itself is humanly off a bit,..but that's no excuse with today's technology,..ill work on that for shure,..about the siren sound,..isn't that just killer!,..
,....just added that right before postin,..has givin the track some direction,..ive allready added a whole new section to the track with a fresh break,..and ive added some variation to originall drum's,..but yeah got's to work on that timing problem..thank's for the input Nosrac!
your ear's are priceless!..oh and all the sound's are from the c samples we maid..

not the bpm eh? maybe start point or just a bit of the swing of the original drummers on the two loops isn't melding - anyhow - I'm sure that'll be minor to fix - and ya damn that siren!

,..oh and don't you recocnize the siren,..it's off the c samplez
,..sound's like one of those long swiss horn things,..check pm

it's jsut cuz the drum loops sound the same voer and over agian. they never change. some tiems it's not what hits you put it what hits you LEAVE out. a missed snare, or kick. or even staggered around a bit. makes the groove change. but there not grooving really together. sound liek to totally seperate drums.

Sub is a bit overpowering. Filtered bassounds are cool. Drums don't have a lot of power.

nice drum layering n delaying , jungle . sounds fit well together , and i fucking like the bass stab-delays . drums could use some more high end .
maybe some more slicing for the variation.
but im deffinatly feeling this one.
good-o-mighty equipped , you made a nice preview.

"wind lightnin an thundaclap "
)

looking forward for the finished product

old school sounds. nice
sub sounds nice on these speakers
drums sound muffled, but they roll nicely. some slight off beats. and crackling?
some of those wonky sounds are sick, turn em up, there getting lost in the bass.
song needs an intro. more build. but its a good start, some really wild sound fx
nice one
