hey hey, now i'm usually posting trancey remixes i've made on these pages, now here is something completely different, still very much in a simialr style to my other work - you can tell it was me who made it
Anyway - pretty rough mix, but works well i think, i might do a polished mix of it soon, but i like how it sounds dirty.

BTW - vocal sample is from Nine Inch Nails - Wish, before anyone asks me

thank you for listening, just let me know if you download it, and give me a few comments

Liked it a lot, maybe you should increase the volume of the vocal sample, I don't think it sounds right like this

downloading it now(56k), i'll post thoughts once i listen to it.

this is wicked! the beat is fantastic and the vocal is cool..

a few snots that should be fixed before putting it on any demo, i agree that the vocal needs to be louder, and maybe put some long gated reverb on it to give it some raaar. the bassline needs to be phatter, it needs some growlyness. also needs mastering also i would also think about bringing some more banging perc in towards the last third of the track and where the breaky kick drum comes in in the breakdown

other than that its wicked, if it was mastered i would play it

Thanks Jefff, nice comments, although you may have misunderstood what i meant my 'demo mix' - not a mix to go on a demo CD, but me Demo-ing the track for myself so i can see whats working and whats not, like a benchmark for improvements
i agree with whats said about the vocal, it's going to mean me adjusting the levels on all the other channels as the vocal is already as loud as it will go, and through as much compression as possible without it sounding squashed.

anyway - surely there are some other people who are willing to give something different a try???? 60+ views and 3 reply's is pretty bad going in my book.

for fucks sake
i'm sick of this fucking forum
it's so fucking cliquey
one of the best tracks posted in a while and noone gives any feedback??
some people have fucking problems
Justin, mate, It's absolutely amazing, and I'll speak to you in a bit about doing some remix work for some people
shame on the rest of you for being ****s!

Happens to me all the time, and I agree with you. On other forums I've posted my tracks and gotten maybe 4 or 5 replies, and only 2 or 3 of them would be reviews/feedback. On those same forums, somebody that everybody knows posts a mediocre track and it has 25 replies in an hour. I don't know if these forums will work out the same for me.

About this track:

Loved the intro right from the start. Nice raspy synth you got going there. Ambient noise is nice but maybe a bit repetitive. Choice of kick sound is good.

Percussion is building up nicely. Vocals are very nice, is that you or a sample?

Percussion is fantastic now. Nice and housy track, progressive all the way through.

Really enjoyed this. Great work.

Easy.People have different tastes.Why did you think people didn't go over the moon with Haak until he made Frenzy? Because it was trance,and sadly,trance gets a lot more response on this forum (cos after all,this is tranceaddict) than other genres.

I'll check out your track when my bloody capped speed is back to normal JMF

it's not that, the pitiful amount of replies and views compared to everything else
me and justin did an experiment with his last track, haak posted, and within 15 minutes the views and replies doubled from a track that had been posted for days
it's cliquey and shit, and talent isn't recognised

Yea vocals louder

Really like teh sawy leady thing (not sure what to call it)

Breakdown is awsome, the vocals thing reminds me of steve murano.

It seems as if there should be more power in the result of the breakdown, soemthing is missing that would really make it explosive to me. RIght now I don't know what it could be though...
