Huge sounding reece, which is nice. But I don't really like most of the other sounds used.

Drums are quite nice but have too much reverb.

first listen:

huge synth. i like the high end synth/siren sound in the background and your bass kick. i agree with surya about the reverb though. the drum beat would go well with the deep synth line if it were quick and punchy, the cymbals especially. many of the sounds are good and flow well together. i will give it another listen with a more critial ear.

second listen:

it sounds like you have ghostsnares in the beat, but they are washed out in the reverb. bring em back! i like the energy this track is pumping out. however it seems to follow a verse/chorus/verse format. the drums/synths/strings are all static, i.e. unchanging. some variations would do well.

overall:

i like the energetic, driving approach. i know the track is not done, so a full critique is pretty futile. one thing to work on would be variations to the theme and fills/transitions. even something so simple as taking out the beat for a 4 ct is considered a transition, provided the next sequence is different. it adds flavour to the track, keeps listeners on their toes and allows dancers to take a swig of water. all subtle and wonderful things in the dnb community Wink

best of luck finishing the track. starting tunes is easy. its finishing them that gives us headaches. hope this helps.

peace.

you have talent man,
track has energy for sure,
that synth is cool.

cool bass.

can't comment on mastering as i am listening on shite spkrs,
but it is distorting a bit on these.

this is really my kinda track man, keep at it!!!

midrange is cool, but not that cool to let it play through the whole tune. like surya said, drums have too much reverb. theres no or not much variation in your drums, bass and arrangment.

you could make a nice tune out of this. get your drums fixed, maybe make em completely new and put some second maybe third bass in.

missing the dynamic and fx!!

Your vocals are to much in the background, I can't quite understand them, make all voicestuff stick out more (lift the mids).

Don't like the bleepin' stuff too much.

Slammin'!
nice track. I love the inflection on the hh's. that's really doing it for me. i love the sublety of the bass in the end- top notch. The only thing i can say constuctively is that it may be a little predictable for my taste but you know that that's what the kids on the dance floor love. good structure imo. and if that vocal is actually you... props for not being a pussy and steppin' up to the mic. i'd love to remix that.

by the way what software are you using?
