Ok, this is a clip, so some comments wil seems obvious but anyway.
- The bassline lacks variation and it's to 'normal' for me (not the kind of wicked shit I'm into Big Grin )
- The part between the intro and the break is exactly the same as the part after the break.
- I can't help thinking of the Prodigy when the high melody comes in.
- The intro and the break are very well done, the EQing is great, sounds fit together really well.
I really like the high-cut on the bass around 2:05.

This thingy has potential, but it needs some work.

yes yes, sounds nice Drummer
the sound is a little too sharp to me, its painfull to turn up the volume
that bass is indeed not too special, but that doesnt bother me at all, im enjoying myself with the background sounds Wink theyre fun
i can understand where battledrone gets the prodigy idea from at 3:10 Smile
the drop is nice, but not that special again

i really enjoy listening to this one mate! Bigup

saying "it's jump-up" makes for an underestimated (spelling?) view. I think it's way more intelligent to say the least

liking the new drum set, very refreshing, sharp and determined. bassline is another thing, not feeling any drive there, happy sounding melodies, but it's personal taste speaking

cant comment mixdown right now cause Im listening on some wacko speakers at work

more detail later

Yo!

So i finally founded ya tunes.....always just watched the tunes sectionFrown

intro: nice drums in there....fx cool......wuwuwuwu upcoming......nice

drop: typical dancefloor drop....not too heavy......nice playin da LFO....cant really hear a subline, but im on crappy soundsystem....bassline would need more power....maybe add another to keep it interesting......2:57:halfbeat...cool.....could be betta with more playing with the ghostnotes!......

2.droping: fx cool!!...betta then the first!!!....

overall: could be much more variation in it....should have more powa....youll fix that for sureWink

cheers

been meaning to get round to reviewin this one bro
sorry it took so long!.. Wink

great sounds here, wasnt expecting such tight drumwork instantly setup up the scene for some dancefloor bizniz Big Grin

nice synth comin in.., aahhh turnis into the main lead, nice..with that sub backin it up it sounds great
ahaa 1:32, wicked backround noise feels like prodigy vibe here Devil Drummer Devil


cool!!

that b-line really is rollin man.. Drummer

best part is when you flip it to sub only, the beatz sound at they're best here.

half time beatz... goes well, maybe add some more percusion here to give it that buildup vibe coz that synth in the backround going up is fuckin wicked

second drop could do with something different with the bassline, in terms of adding another melody or doubling up the reece an octave up??

all in my humble opinion mate Big Grin

anywayz really liked this one one of the best ive heard from you me thinks

thanks

G
