first take:
i like the teased intro. it doesnt follow the standard time signiture and just when you think you are set for a smooth ride that thick kick rings the beat in. good beat evolution in the early stages, from minimalism into a solid break.
second listen:
the ambiance/fx are solid. they hold this track well. the breakdown around the 2:17 mark is sweet. it sounds like a female voice is in the background at a real low volume. either that or just more tight effect. from here the track rolls out in a process of tearing down that heavy beat.
third listen:
the first count on the beat-loop is very distorted from the combonation of that heavy kick, a sub kick underneath it and the bass from the fx. i would recommend turning some part of that down just slightly. even at %90 of total volume, it would still rumble, but provide less clipping. still loving that breakdown at 2:17. i think it stands alone; and since you tear the track down from there, it would be cool to remove all the kicks. bring those fx out but of course save the kick rush before the drop Wink
overall, i like it. it is far more IDB than DNB, and there is nothing wrong with that.

keep it up.

peace

This is nice tune. I enjoyed the intro, except maybe that first synth needs more work.(imo there's too much delay when the synth starts playing notes quickly)
The drop is good. After 1 min i think your break gets too choppy, yet the general feel of the tune is rather smooth and flowing? Perhaps the drums should reflect that. The main drum break is good though. I enjoy the bassline as well its quite rushy...
The mix is good but it could be improved imo.(but am no expert on that)

7/10

Keep em coming

Intro melody is nice, not feeling the sound of it though. Continues in the same sound, kinda starting to like after a while, reminds me of old computer games (a lot of things have that effect on me). Pretty cool onwards, could use a tad more variation. Break at 2:16 has awful sound,
But the ringing FX in the background are very cool. Track doesn't really evolve into anything more, which it should have done imo.

Work more on it, add more melodies, intertwine them.

intro souds a bit trancy for my taste
good beat though, sounds industrial, could do with a dark bass line
underneath it. 2.16 sounds great
overall a well produced track nothing more to say
7/10 Pleased
needs alittle tweekin
