spectacular track!

bassline is awesome.
love the choir too..

it sounds a tad muddy when everything plays together though, i think there might be a bit too much reverb on the strings. nothing bad, but imo they could be a bit clearer..

other than that it's perfect.. wonderful production, it's massive!!

Comments as I listen:

-That synth that busts in right at the start sounds way too 80s for me, hehe.
-The other intro effects are cool, I like that gallopping sound.
-Dope kick; best I've heard you use so far.
-Bass is really nice, could possibly use a little more sub-bass though. Actually scratch that, sounds good.
-Dope percussions and pad. Entire intro is really nice.
-Not a big fan of the bassline note progression, but the melodies sound great over-top of it.
-Nice breakbeat, but maybe bring out the snare in it a bit more.
-Sounds pretty massive after the breakdown, I like it.

This is my favourite of your tracks thus far, good work man.

sounds damn nice man

agree's with sean about it being the best kick you have used

Kevin :: thanks mate! Glad I could impress you once

You did like the pianos in this one then? I was thinking of scrapping the strings behind the lead, but it resulted in a bit of 'empty space' when I tried...

dj-sean :: I know about that synth in the intro, I've thought about leaving it out near the start. Then, I placed some more reverb and delay on it, so it would sound more atmospheric. Dunno if that worked? Thanks for your input.

dbl :: thanks for your comment, I appreciate it (as always)

SoM :: I think it could nice along that awesome original, don't think it's better at all imo - remixes are hardly better or a match for the original

dj zero :: I'm glad you like it mate, thx.

ravemonkey :: well, then I must have come a long way for you thanks for having a listen.

i wouldn't scrap them, i'd just put a bit less reverb on them..
