    I really like the overall feel of the track. All seems to fit very well together. I would still say add a bit more punch to the kicks, but I like it hard!!! Also a few edits here and there to keep it a bit less loopy before the break. Maybe some reverse, stutter, or filter edits on the whole drum sequence will do the trick. All in all I think I like this the best of anything I've heard you do. Granted I've only heard like 3 tunes though. Quite good work amigo :clap:

    I wasn't trying to be too critical amigo just so you know. Just giving opinion. I only listened in headphones too. So that kick may be much larger in presence than I can tell......

    i like it. very nice percussion work, some nice subtle fills going on. adding in some (lots?) of sub sounds like a good idea, other n that, sounds good to me....

    Is that glitchy static noise meant to be there? I dont think it sounds good at all and to me sounds like a mistake in the production. Apart from that, the tunes really good. Nice complex loops and the percussion is cool. I think the kick sounds suited to what it is. It has a lot of different noises in it, good shit man :clap:

    that glitchy noise is a distorted drive crunchy sound....but then mixed with a kind of acid bassline it does come across a bit loud....

    im unsure of that bassline too, but i have humming half thru for a while so that when it kiks in again the tune fill up...

    thanks for all the feedback people, you have me thinking again!! :clap:

    nice track man, but yea that kick bugs me a bit w/ that bassline in the background, its too constant i think...............might sound good on a big system though, but i would like to hear it w/ a phat bassline instead, thats just me

    but the percussion sounds cool and everything sounds right on, good stuff
