thanks bud. appreciated.. i am a bedroom dj so i only got my ear to go by.. and a lot of the time, what i hear isnt whats really comin out. :p ok, so blending the two together more subtly? i know exactly what u mean about the bassines.. i have a tendency to go for all out bass, though maybe this isnt the best way?

i think some of the distortion may have come from my recording techniques.. am new to this whole thing so hopefully it will improve with time and experience.. i'll try again, and post the new attempt when it's ready.. probably this weekend..

thx again..:)
