i like the composition, but the samples used sound flat and tired to me. Just my opinion, but if you chose less generic sounds for the same piece it would have much more potential. (just find that bass synth to be very 1985)
hmm i thought youd be more keen on the bass than the percussions to be honest
thanks for listening you villalobos choking loser

It's alright I suppose. Very ten a penny type of tune, there are loads of tracks that sound the same. But great production nonetheless would sound great In a club.

i didnt hate it greg, its just missing some depth imo.
we took the bass hook from the original and made a monster around it
was the plan, i think we achieved what we wanted to with the jam

Does this sound similar to a lot of other tunes out there right now?
Yes, it does.
Does it sound better than a fair number of them?
Yes, it does.
Here's my take on it - EDM is, in general, about some theme becoming popular and then a lot of people trying to repeat said theme until it has been completely and utterly played out. Some do well, some fail miserably - I think you guys did alright with this one. It does have that kind of "big room" feel to it without being too banging, I do like the bassline though will agree with Jay that it has a very 1985 feel to it, fortunately that is a plus for me. The percussion is probably what I think is the most generic and boring aspect of the tune, which isn't to say it's poorly done - it just sounds similar to countless other tunes.
I'd honestly like to see some diversity in the high end percs - I really think it could change up the pacing of the tune to have some more organic or warm sounding stuff in there (if that makes any sense).
In any event, I'm going to toss it in my bag and see if I find a spot to play it here or there in the not too distant future and I'll try to pop back in and let you know what I think once I've tried to contextualize it.
Sounds like stripped down Jeff Bennett. Bassline is anoying me, I like the echoey synths. I dunno man, not really diggin it to be honest. Something I might buy and then just not play in favor of other tracks...
