Right then, after taking in what a few people had said about my last project i've come up with this, which in my opinion is a lot better and more produced than the last. The track I've remixed might not be to everyones taste, but i'm more interested in your views of my production technique - rather than the melody..
any, RBA - in my opinion is great tune, but needed a good 4/4 remix, and some body to it - which is what i've given in my remix.
download the track here *updated* and let me have your feedback.
thank you

i'll download it in the mornin justin and leave u sum feedback
Not too fond of the bass. I think it could have a better groove to it, you know? The lead i think should be bigger sounding. Maybe layer some more saws on top of what you have. Really good use of effects and percussion! 8/10

this is nice mate
nic01445 was right about the bassline, IMO it needs a different synth noise on it (that patch has been used 9807597329843750984375097 times ) but other than that this is crackin work i still think u need to try and get more fx in there tho.. when that is done it will sound better
the production is getting better everytime u do a track.. keep it up and ull be producing pro stuff in no time

its rather good, bass is rather crap tho lol. well the first bassline, if you drop it an octave and compress it with a lil delay or reverb it could be quite good. synth is well cool. you have come a long way very quickly justin, impressed
Very Nice indeed !
nice construction and I love the percussion.
Personally I think the bass line is ok, just needs more compression.
1 Prob tho, try adding more layers to your lead synth to give it more power.
Great mix tho

Cheers for all of the comments so far very encouraging
i fully take on board what you are all saying about layering the synth a little, i'll give it a go - but my computer just isn't fast enough to hear all the changes in real time, i have to add effects etc, then render the track to hear the difference - when i get a better PC i'll be able to make more intricate or layered effects on the leads - same thing with bassline too - if i added any more effects to the bass (yes it's already reverbed and delayed) i fear my PC might just jump off my desk and die
Luke>> i'll lower the offbeat bassline an octave and see if i like that better - although i reckon it might start getting into the sub frequencies and will be lost in the mix.
*update*
I've added an extra layer of lead synths - raised 1 octave to widen the sound, also sorted out some minor probs i had with the filtering. I added stra delay on some of the single drum hits i had, and also compressed and lowered the offbeat bass, and i've extended the intro by 8 bars.

I think you should take the reverb on the bass down a bit. Still, the only thing that seems lacking is the lead. I'm really diggin that kinda amp-feedback-ish sound that you have playin with the lead. 8/10
