mike native - bin juce im guessin Sticking out tongue lol u left the tags on the tune!!!!
not keen on the processed drum on the intro, although i love that squelchy reese that comes in percussion is a nice touch but i recommend u use it in small dose's bass is nice n deep which is nice i think sub bass may be too loud not sure so i wont judge u on that, but nice tune overall love the nastyness of the bass really nice work on that mate maybe more variation would enhance this tune!

The Prophecy by King Louis: dark intro, loving that dark

dark intro, loving that dark percussion, the synth/strings are really dark it provides a really evil element to the tune, the vocal is wicked, the break doesnt hit hard enough for me in the drop although it is nice i hear a slight amen in the midst Sticking out tongue loving the reese very very dark those drum rolls are nice!!!!!

mastering quality is really nice!
love the tune overall but the vocals around 3minutes are out of sync just a little, but it is a nice touch!

a solid 8 from me

They Prey by Ruffian: loving the intro reese's

loving the intro reese's really dirty and nice, brweak is slamming, very very dark vibe i can see this being the winner very nice, wow those twisty reeses are distorting my brain Sticking out tongue break is overdrawn intro goes on for too long IMO and break on drop doesnt suit it i think intro drums are better, the stabby basses are nice but spoilt by break i donty like the drum pattern either but this has all the elements of a really dark/angry evil tune just needs reconfiguring.

wicked track m8 but spoilt by the break in the drop.

Dawn Shadow by Virus: loving this chillin intro,

loving this chillin intro, drop is nice bass is quite squelchy (which i love) atmospheric synths are really nice, very harmonic trumpet is a nice effect a very well mastered tune although i think the snare is quite muddy and break seems to be basic thats my only criticism of this tune i think the break spoils it in my oppinion but thats easily changed wicked track m8 love it well done 7.2 from me Laughing out loud

Chaotic Minds by QuiVeR: not keen on the

not keen on the main pad/synth on the intro but the perc sounds good i think it should be a little more progressive aswell not much seems to happen on intro untill rather later, i love the break wicked sound on that, the twisty lead is nice not keen on the arabic style melody between bars i think the release is too long on the instrument! but mastering quality is nice levels sit nicely. Sticking out tongue

great work!

psycosis by kit: pad is nice, beeping is a

pad is nice, beeping is a good effect i like that, love the processed drums bass drop is a nice effect, just realised that the intro drums go through the whole tune which im not keen on as the drop should have a better break IMHO because the break has no high end to it and makes the mix sound really muddy and mid'dy!

Timerun by DMJ A.K.A Jossi: filtered break is nice but

Submitted by Golem on Tue, 2006-09-19 19:49.

filtered break is nice but synth drums are WAY too loud, not really feeling this one the synths seem cheesy no offense snare needs increasing in volume and the structure needs work!

bass sits nice in the mix and atmospheric synths do.

nice tune, foundation is there but needs work

not keen on the beeps at the start, theres no intro for starters, break is nice but very repetitive and the vocals seem very disturbing is that some of the essence vocals from the remix pack? the bass is nice mastering is nice aswell but theres no intro structure to it or any variation which really lets the tune down.
