Haha, I always love hearing your tracks on here, so wildly different.

That intro takes quite a while to build, I'd suggest shortening it or adding some elements to keep it interesting!

The break is mental! Love the syncopation and intensity. Maybe layer it with some non-distorted samples to maintain a clear punch, it seems a bit low fi to me (That may well be what you're aiming for though!)

The Reese when it drops is very quiet, I'd bring that up and EQ it so we get more of that top end.

The sub seems quite quiet as well - make sure it's nice and prominent.

The break sounds cool and it works very well together with the reese and the vocals! I also think that you should layer some non-distorted drumsamples underneath it, to get that clear and heavy impact this track deserves (in my opinion)! It reminds me a bit of PENDULUMS "Comprachicos", maybe you check out that track to get some inspiration in terms of drumlayering!
Nice work overall!

he he sudden badness at 1:00 and bassriff is really cool.
Really crisp bassounds going on here
Awrsome breakdown at 3:40
Would wanna hear more of the bassline from the beginning througout the track though...

but hey, twisted track! great work!

I reckon some rides and crash cymbals in the drum pattern would give it more of a harder sound that i think you may be listening to!

and maybe a tiny boost at 60 ish hz

There is sooooo much different influence in this tune!! I love it! So different an unique compared to the other stuff out there! Great job man! I would suggest bringing up the sub just a little bit though. Not so much to where it swamps the tune, but just enough to where it's audible, and so you can feel it. :) I personally like the quiet reese, it adds for a night backing atmosphere. Keep it up man!

yeah this is different refreshing to hear. love the texture! i think the drums are fine - if you were going for a more gritty lo-fi sound prob the case.

Original, fresh.

It isn't perfect yet, but i hear you try to experiment and I like it !

from 3:45 - I really like this.... glitch or however you can call it.

Looking forward to hearing something new from you !
