    Thought this was supposed to be hard Scott ;) ha ha

    Sounds good though man, really nice groovy bassline. Yes I did say BASSline. Some really nice tribal percussive elements as well. Got a nice synth sound that compliments the rest of the noises well also.

    Add some more edits, a couple of stabs sounds for later in the tune and finish the arrangement. I think you're about good to go.

    Maybe it's just my shitty headphones, but the kick seems to get lost a little bit int he mix when all sounds are present????

    All in all qutie cool though Mr.Grey.

    Nice start, pretty groovy.. the mix is a bit flat though dynamically.
    EQ wise it needs a bit of sharpening too.. but so far its good..
    Clean that up and give the parts some movement and I think you'll be good to go ;)

    Sounds quite good to me, though the sound on the off beat puts me off the track a bit, seems a bit too strong and I'd rather have the sound a bit more defined. It seems to muddy up sound a bit when it starts kicking in with everything.

    The second half of the tune definately needs a bit of mastering type tinkering, it really sounds to me like you are losing a lot of the bass in it, from both the kick and that nice groovy synth which backs it, both of which could do with a bit of boosting to keep them a bit more prominant. The synth especially as thats the thing from the track which erally draws me personally into it.

    nice groovey, driving bass. definately clashes with synth lines though...
    hats sound a bit rough to me too.
    sa cool tune overall though, will be sweet once the mix is polished a bit...

    Quite nice, although it does sound a little like alot of stuff that came around when Kanzyani first became popular.
    Maybe it`s the bongo`s?

    Overall the mix is pretty messy.
    There`s no depth or warmth to the bassline, I cranked this real loud, and there wasn`t any bass presence, essentially I think the kick and the bass are sitting in the same area. I`s push the bass underneath the kick and give it loads of sub, but your damn monitors seem to give you trouble in this area.

    Kick could be clearer and punchier, but this is due to fighting with the bass.

    There doesn`t seem to be much definition in the mid range.

    Overall this could do with a heavy bit of sculpting with the subtractive EQ, as it is quite messy, but then it`s early days yet.

    Groovy, but a little derivative.
    Solitary by nature.
    Isolation is the gift.
    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?

    Nice preview !
    I find the synth a little bit too loud though.
