I finished this track about 2 weeks ago and finally got it online this week. As you guessed, it samples from the 'Dark Knight' soundtrack and some Joker quotes I grabbed from the trailers. I'm really happy with all the original parts I made too. This is the first "original" (meaning I didn't use remix contest parts from say Sasha, BT or King Unique) song I've actually finished too so that's an accomplishment
Would love to hear feedback from everyone. I put the myspace link for a quick listen and if you want the full 320 version, just download it at the bottom.
Love the "Im a man of my word" part. Fits in tune with the tempo. I like the harder and faster stuff more, but I still like this track. It's got a dark aura, which suits the Joker, so good job there. I hear a quiet violin in the background. Where did you get that from? the soundtrack? I've got the soundtrack because I was planning on using soundclips from the orchestra in my next track and I think I recognize some of the sounds you used. Would like to have heard more of the lead coming through at 5:41.

Hey Adi, I appreciate the advice. Perhaps it might work better as a trance remix but I don't make trance so that isn't really possible hehe.
Hey Glassball, yeah I also used a lot of orchestral sounds from the soundtrack. It's really an amazing score and was really fun to cut up and find parts to use for this. Yeah the lead sound at 5:41 is very cool sounding but when I tried layering it with the beat or other sounds it got a bit overwhelming/confusing I thought so I just let it in as the sort of climax and then dropped it. Goodluck on your version as well. I'd be curious to hear that when you finish
