Like the intro, sounds nice, arrangement sounds all good. The B-line on the drop sounds nice and booming, hi end has a nice groove.

Overall i feel the the tune is structured quite well although it did come to a bit of an abrupt end, the drum programming is good, kick is phat, but i feel a more punchy snare would help to roll it out. Like the B-line and pads etc!!! Over all I like it mate, keep up the good work!!!

nice start, i like the beats, snare could be a little louder. you bring in some hats around 0:47, these are a tad on the loud side, only marginally, very marginally, i feel they dominate slightly rather than lift your sound. 1st drop (1:18ish) nice, definately need that snare sorting, other than that, i like your beats, not repetative, nice variation. All instrument levels are sound. 2nd drop (.. ok, i never expected it to come in like it did, but i like it none the less. then we end abruptly. Ok, this track has potential, it has some nice aspects, in my eyes it needs to sound a little fuller. this track has nice vibes throughout. my first advice is to sort out your snare, add another 2 minutes to it, then post it back up and we'll have another look.

Cheers mate, sound advice!

As Ive mentioned b4, the track aint properly finished hence the abrupt ending. I just stuck up a makeshift copy to get some feedback, and then Im gonna work on the arrangement more, pad it out and give it a nice ending.

i was going to say that it sounded like it was going out of time..... is that what you meant ?

it was well hard practicing it on the decks at that tempo, i think it fits in well over the phat kick just before the drop.

Also, ive put some quite heavy delay on it too which probably doesnt help the timing of it.

that's it. i couldn't work out before, the first half of it sounds cool, it's just when you let it go, it sounds a bit muddled, ithe delay ruins it a bit, try cutting it up in soundforge/whatever wave editor you use, into 2 bits, the scratch, and the sample itself. leave the scratch as it is, and just add delay to the sample. i think this would make it sound better. it's still good tho, don't get me wrong. it just could be better

sorry for being so negative man..... don't get me wrong, it does sound good, i just always look for bad points.

No your 100% right mate, if I didn't want any negative feedback then I wouldn't have posted it in the first place.

Keep the comments rollin people, a great response so far. As im really please with this one Im gonna take heed of all the feedback and finish it within a week or two. I want this to be one of the ones i submit to all the labels.

It's all good
