I tried to take into account every piece of critique in making this new version. Hopefully, I did okay. I didn't add distortion to the bass-line but I did raise the volume of a buzzy saw layer in stereo. Instead of using a D&B style beat I brought in some vocal samples that build up until the new lead takes over.
I hope you like it and will take the time to let me know what you all think. Thanks for helping me push my game on this one.
Everything in the first minute or so sounded really deep and solid, but when the synth comes in I think it takes away the initial feeling, which is fine, but IMO it would sound much better if the fully melody didn't play right away.
After a while, however, it does seem to really fit in and serve a nice part in the track.
All the elements are cool as they are, but I would personally like to hear more built upon the track. For something over 10 minutes long it does tend to get a bit repetitive

I reckon this could use some nice filtered and reverbed d'n'b drums coming in and out in the background.
Maybe a little distortion on the bassline too.
Very evocative track that takes me back 15-20 years

Alrighty! This is pretty similar to some feedback I've gotten elsewhere, so I'm going to put some more effort into the track and see what I can come up with.

That might be interesting. I don't know about distortion on the bass-line with my idea for adding other things but if it winds up fitting in...
Thanks for the feedback, guys. I'll be doing the upgrade, shortly.
I will be all over this track when I find any headphones around my hotel. Can listen on my laptops speakers.
Cheers.

I could picture this in a video game soundtrack. sounds like a song you'd hear in certain places in the citadel in mass effect.

Thanks, man. I still hear stuff I want to polish up in it, but I am happy with it, so far. Not bad for using Altec-Lansing computer speakers, a pair of Sony MDR-700s, and a really decent visual frequency analyzer.

Just had to look that up. The screen-shot I found reminds me of when I used to play a RTS space game called Home World.

Well, the beat did sound nice on my Altec Lansing ATP3 , BUT then i put my Headphones on and it sounded a bit 'messy' to me...like the kick and the bass are playing twice without sync...
Besides that i really like the melodies, something special no doubt,
I also think that an uplifting trance remix could be intresting for this track.
can't wait until the update!
