    some nice ideas going on here, the top end is a bit too harsh though

    I agree with Dan; there's an awful lot of hissing up there that could be way more pleasant with, perhaps, the judicious use of a gate? Might be worth experimenting with a de-esser, perhaps. That breakbeat sample also makes the groove of the track feel a bit awkward. If you're not already, maybe try pulling it into ReCycle and experimenting with swing a bit, see how that changes the feel of the track. Definitely need to get rid of some or all of that hiss - maybe an autofilter?

    Good solid TR-909 kick going on tho; I bet this sounds great on a PA.

    I especially like the weird loop that comes in at about 1:30 and again at about 4:55. :) The kick breakdown at 1:52 seems a bit out of place (on the wrong bar, perhaps?), but is definitely welcome - I was hoping to hear more kick fills like that later in the song, say, every 64 bars. :) (I LOVE REVERSE 909 KICKS)

    I like it, but the guys are right, way too harsh.
    Sounds like you stuck quite a hard compression over the whole song and this has cuased serious hiss (and reduced the overall dynamic). I could be wrong.
    The tops end up lacking depth, and come out flat and hissy, so this needs addressing.
    That bongo loop that comes in at 2:14 needs to be blended in to the mix a little, maybe some more reverb or a delay.
    Nice kickdrum workout though. That would really flap the trousers!!!

    Just get down and clean up the EQ and you will have an absolute belter.

    I have liked most of your stuff so far :clap:
    Solitary by nature.
    Isolation is the gift.
    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?

    damn, now this is techno.. great and pounding. Sounds
    are great ! Really industrial. Nice bassdrum, altogether
    it has a great drive, pounding !

    Sounds added in the break are cool !

    Another break added in the middle with the same sounds
    as the first one will make it even more though.

    Mastering sounds OK 2

    Great track !
    --> Do you have any drums in youre house? <--
