first take:
i like the beat and the percussion. very low end bass. i will turn up my subs for the next listen. those percussion shots starting around 2:12 are odd. haha, and they are gone. great vox. i do like the synth/bass variations and transitions after the 2nd drop. im getting the same overall feel tho. makes me wonder if this is a preview or if you are just mapping out a broader idea. the drum fills are a nice touch throughout.
second listen:
the intro is great. its the ambiance/fx that does it for me. i dont know how i feel about the drop. not bad, not good. its just a drop 
the meat of the track is very straighforward. i think this was your intention. i like anything drum and bass, so no complaints from me.
overall:
this track is better than average. nothing wrong with it, and nothing great about it. i was beatboxing along with the beat and nodding my head while i typed. so the energy aspect is there. just seems that an element is missing that i cant really place.
keep at it. from what i have heard so far, you bounce through different styles. that is a positive sign.
peace.

Nice african percussion in the intro there,
fat bass as usual,
that vocal sample is cool, could use some more
background ambience there. + some
reverb on the vocal.
track flows really nice and stays interesting.
Would go good on the dance floor i reckon.
Cheers man 
This gives me some ideas for my next track.

Yo anfO!!
intro: like the atmosphere. drums are going up n down=cool. fx also good. 0:48: nice percussions, like it.
drop: could be a better drop, i would like to hear more power!!! bassline is cool n diggin, but there should be more melody to keep it interesting. there aint hardly any melody
1:56: gets boring for me..not enough variation.
like the vocal!!!!
2nd drop: nothing really changed...i think it sounds pretty overloaded. 3:16: cool! 3:45: like that
overall: very nice intro, but it gets me bored a bit. but good sound quality.
thanx for all yall reviews m8
respect camo

yo anfo, sup mang, long time no holla @. well i couldn't pass up a chance to see what you's doing. first off man, lemme say i gotta go back to what turnstyles said, your styles have changed soo much. it's like each time man i hear something from ya, i never really know what to expect, but with each track comes a better and more complex sound. good shit on that note! intro was pretty bad ass man, hi-speed percussions and hi-tech sounds and shit. good atmosphere, just when ya dropped, something fell a tad shy of keeping that energy going as i anticipated from the intro. maybe it was just cuz the drop came too sudden, like you sliced off the intro for a split second and then just jumped into the drop. cuz the tunes still bangin' tho man. but maybe needed a some more ideas added in on the second drop. it's all there just needed some expanding. good shit overall as always tho from the AnFo

thanx for comments guys... i feel what you guys are saying...
i think i will continue to work this... and add some more elements to keep interest goin... a synth would be nice, and maybe some more mellowd... i dunno im not really one for melody... im more tek 
but yeah i reckon i could get some cool tekky synth in there some how.
@optik: yeah where have you been man?? havent heard anything from you in ages. need some more dark inspiration from you.

intro is fairly good. definitely techno esque. i feel the tension.
i dont think you should have changed the pattern on the ride, you shoulda left it in 4/4.
i don't really like the panned snares or rimshots that you put in at about 2:11.
drop...vocal is pretty good. but otherwise yeah its just a drop like turnstyles said, but i agree with the others that it needs to keep some form of energy.
wow...this gets really boring man. you need to have a nice rezzy tech lead that we can hear, a rather cliche thing but it'll sound good in this context trust me. this is not really a track that you're ever going to be able to fit a decent melody into so don't try.
anyway its fairly good...how do you crank these out so fast? i only finish like three tunes a year...

yeah the panned things are toms... i dunno i like them from my techno tunes
yeah i wasnt going to trying to chuck in a complex mellody... i was thinking about having some more elements following the riff but changing in octaves n rythem compared to the bassline.
but yeah it needs some more excitment n elements.
n i guess i crank em out quikly because i get bored of them quikly, unless i get a mad idea goin... im at a stage where im trying to tweak my skills and play around with different sounds. and i still need to learn fuckloads of techniques... so practice makes perfect i spose.
cheers for the review.

listening to this massive one for the second time and 
...
big up man , nothing bad to say bout this one.
drums improved a lot , used other drumsamples
?
everything flow togheter very nicely , go aussie
just some leveling here n there :
drums up a bit
panned sound down (2:12) a bit overpanned to imo.
2drop has those panning again
bass sounds like a lowend guitarr is ist ?
cool cool
bleeps n peeps are well chosen here
lots of little variation tell me you worked a long time on this time , and that's great cause...
this track could use a label
no shit

This is a very interesting track. There's A LOT to say on this but I won't go on too much 
Firstly, those drums are a little weak. I'm definitely digging those sound effects and percussion instruments though! On every 3rd beat there is this annoying high pitched sound that goes on and on. I think you should've added some cool fx on them! Maybe a fat delay or summin with a phase. There's also this annoying sound fx that comes in on every 4th beat. I think you should've turned em down a bit cos they take the main element of the track away. I really like that bassline and the way you used those hats! Those vocals are amazing aswell
Sound really bright and clear! Overall man excellent work. Just work on getting better sound quality by using effects like:
Compressors, Stereo Enhancers, EQ's (the list goes on they are just a few)
EQ's are the most abused tool used in sound producing! They are amazingly effective
Keep it up man

like drums at intro.. filter work is nice.. fx keeps me interested there too.. 0m44s nice breakdown.. instant.. like it.. 1m04s dirty I lik eit.. a warnin sign.. possibly lackin some bass above the sub level.. 150 - 200hz roughly!! although I guess depends on wot kinda sound your after
.. 2m.11s nice breakdown.. instant kick in again.. I like it but should kick into MORE!! SICK SAMPLE AND FX... echo nice
the wrong way :S .. pans drums nicely around 3m15s.. I would have rinsed that vocal man... maybe thats were im goin wrong.. dunno.. i'd lik eto hear more of it with diff eq/ pitch or summot.. nice sound.. coul dmaybe do with a bit more addin to it.. subtly though ..
nice tune kepp em comin..
checkout mine too.. should be on next week.. "The Bay"

that bass sucks the life out of the song... like the vocal snippit adn the way it was done.
the i only mention the bass because the rest seems a bit dull, and the bass made it muddy i think. the part that is the phatness at 300hz-800hz is being masked by the basses "edge" or "crunchy" sound. it's a pretty dark sound, and dull, which just sit's in an akward position of neither being the dominat sound or subdue, because it's just cluttering the freq below it.
just a nice eq might help, but it could be the distortion yu're using, try to get sometihng that emulates the analog saturation or a foldback distortion, like Cyanide, a good free fold back, with 16X sample rate sparkles it quite well. it's probably jungalist.
and you're probably never going to reply to this thread.
