that sound in intro is familiar, where did you sample that from?
those drums are too loud cant hear the sound behind it. either that or the sound need eq to help it fit aroudn the drums
where is the sub? that needs too be louder
that is some pretty blatent usage of the amen too. try cutting it up more and layering other loops on top so it has more of a unique sound
but im sorry, not feeling this at all

yeah sound in the intro is cool... you could make the hat more noticeable... the vocal is cool. it drops cool, but u cant hear the sub that well... and you could probably layer the amen with some different drums. the second drop sounds like youve mixed in a different track. because its all different compared to the first bit. then the other heavy amen break comes in... you could probably use both drum kits in the first bit... just change up between them. sounding cool though, its got potential, just needs a bit of work.

If you listen really carefully to the amen, I am sure its been done before but i edited to fit perfect with the track, I wasnt going for the crazy edits like I usually do. I was consentrating more on the other elements. And anfo I did layer breaks on top of the amen, 3 different breaks each at different drops, but if I were to turn the volume up on the layered breaks it would over power the amen. I dunno. I am just testing the waters with different styles and alyouts, and what not, trying to learn as much as I can. But for some reason it seems like I am going backwards in my progress. Not sound quality wise, but in the means of the ideas and tunes. I am actually thinking of taking a break, on making tunes, and just trying to make a shit load of sick basslines and break edits, so when i have really good idea for a tune, I will have a few thingss in my arsenal to work with. I dunno, but thanks to the 2 of you who commented on the track, and baz I know you will hit me up with a comment when you have time.

i fond that too.
once my skills were getting better the ideas in the tracks seamed to weaker a little.
i think its' just you spend more time worrying bout how it sounds rather than the content,

How about sequencing the tune and after that, start worrying about the sound quality.
So create the tune and don`t worry about the sound quality. When you`ve finished it, then do your eq, compression and the other stuff....

a longer intro than i was happy listening to , some nice familiar vox samples before that amen drop
the intro sounds very presety..
what is that break layered with this amen?? or is it ghost hits.
the tunes gradually develops with the drums which i really like, but the bass is getting lost in the drums...and too repetative at times..
2:13 - nice sounds mate, wicked! why not have these at the beggining..
now this sounmds like a totally diferent tune.. dont like the breakz..the edits make it listenable, better edits than i would know how to do thats for damn sure..
aha back into the amen mash-up nice..
later on the bass becomes too loud,, need to find a better balance of the elemts overall for this tune..4:37 shit i love that bass comin in, man you should make more of that..
you're getting better all the time and experimenting which i a big part of progression but there jus too much goin on here for me to hear it as a balanced production mate
keep rockin bro

weird friggin intro ; cool but i think it would be good if u made that intro cymbal/hihat driven (filterfuckin!!!!!)
drop is fatass ; diggin it (mashup vox do their thing well
)
u've indeed come quite the distance ; this soundin clean as can be
maybe put another snare layer on top of ur amen (an add ghosts to make it even more rolling)
subs are poundin!!!!
02:10 --> same advice here as with the intro ; hihats & cymbals to build tension before the drop;
also i notice u "not" using the amen cymbal ; u really should after the second drop (try layering it with ur kick u'll get my point)
this track has deff got potential ; deff gon need some more work drumediting
ratin u an 8 on full for the immense progress in ur stuff ; looking forward to hearin updates to this
cheerz iKoN keep @ it bruv!
