WOW! Nice chord progression and instruments. really love the composition. But drumloops dont fit to the song. Can you change these to breaks or ambient loops? then Perfect track. Keep it Up! Good potential. Nice.

Great intro, though I don't really like some of those dj sfx. Toward the end, the track loses direction. If you have some progression this will be a great track...

The intro, while professional sounding, is really cheesy. Great effects and automation. Percussion is...well, lame. It sounds like something straight from one of those old midi keyboards, and lacks depth. A very relaxing tune, I must say, though it tends to drag on a bit too long.
Pretty good work overall.

i'm at :30 seconds and so far this has been off the chain!
oh man! downtempo.. i didnt even realize until just now
love it when you drop the beat, gate, and then come back in.
wonderful use of phasing / other fx at 2:40
the production quality is really nice sounds awesome on my system.
i think a softer / deep kick might fit the feel better, but thats just a matter of taste.

yea thanks man...heh, the beats were pretty much just a sad attempt to have the crisp/high quality beats that i hear on many PvD tracks ...i still have yet to achieve this level of greatness...drivin me pretty crazy trying to figure out how Paul van Dyk does it

Answer one thing honestly though...
Did those tribal drums, etc come off of a sampler CD or something? They sound incredibly canned... almost didn't fit!
Gotta say a very cool track tho!
