the mix is good and it's deffo a new style vocal sample could use a bit of sub to round out the sound or throw something on the bass line to beef it up, some distortion maybe, just a little and then double it up.

Fookin stormin track!! My favourite in this contest. Superb progression throughout the tune to keep it interesting. Only thing i reckon could be improved is the bass could be a bit louder and the high riff (thats there at the first drop) a bit quieter to give the drop more impact.

loved the intro, werent keen

loved the intro, werent keen on snare drum, nice build up but werent feeling the drop it sounded too much like a techy rock tune the lead synth is 2 much like an electric guitar but other sounds were nice. overall well mastered, great tune for someone who likes that style, but unfortunately i dont so i will just be rating u for audio quality and production skills (which were very nice!)

80 - Okay, it starts well

80 - Okay, it starts well with the sounds but the filtered piano is pretty mindless just playing on the beat...too repetitive.  Nice build up.  Ahh, I recognise this style.  Jossi/DMJ?  The drums are quite thin, lacking any weight.  When the melodies get going, there is plenty going on and some cool sounds.  Great riffs and hooks in this, they really make your tracks stand out and be original.  Your tunes always have a strong melodic hook, often that is missing in DnB.  Nice full and bright sound, decent groove to it.  With more powerful drums this would really kick it.


shit, seems high bpm here

think the track is too much compressed.
otherwise mix is good balanced
i'm not kind with these simple synth lines.
tho distorted one is good.
glass like is annoying.
breakdown on 2:53 is somewhat strange Laughing out loud

i bet there would a great track if it's made simpler
less redundant melodies and more attention to dynamics.

like the tune but not the

like the tune but not the way it's mastered, Im listing on some Mackie hr824 studio monitors and the high mid/ low treble hurt my face and made me turn it down. Apart from that it's quite dancy and I would love to hear it with the harshness removed. then I reckon it would go down well on the dance-floor n I'd prob give it a mix in my set.

hi, smee again interesting

hi, smee again Smiling

interesting intro Smiling

uh.. that 808 snare.. i think you should change the sample to get the decent drum sound..

i like those deep chords. yes. godd Smiling

interesting ravey leads Smiling and.. the bassline is very typical... what is very bad i think.. try to experiment more on bass...

Not my cup of tea but it works.  Top end sounded slightly splashy? I found the keys in the intro a bit harsh too. Nice full sound and element progression though.

80 - i like the piano but its volume was a bit to loud. ok now that the piano is not playing the rest sounds good, i like the distorted lead, its catchy, very good melody.  umm the midpoint break kind of made me drift away but I anticipated the beat coming back instead of the bassline, nice and kaotic. 


starts off nice, the pads

Some intros you can hear

Some intros you can hear that a track is a killer track, like cranks. However this intro isnt very intresting need to work more on that. The samples miss depth and synths used are pretty stiff and synthish. The pianoe synthish thing used later is a bit harsh. The tune has nice power in the vibe and thats very important but alot of things could be carried out better. This track could need alot of attention regarding mixing and use of better samples. The drums drown in the mix. Many elements clash in the mix aswell making the whole tune very gritty and its hard to hear individual elements. Melodoic wise its intresting and alot of things going on. I think you have a very good feeling for what you want to do but need to get synths and mixing much more right.
