I'm really getting into DnB... so it would be a shame for me to escape reviewing this. However, I have VERY LITTLE listening experience with this cool genre, so give me some slack.
I think the drums sound too "round"... Especially when the bassline and other atmospheric pads start to roll in. In fact, the bassline itself could use more torque and less of a digital bite. That would definately make it more DnB-ish. However, I love the pads, of course.
You will have to excuse my lack of comments about song structure -- it seems "alright", but it's just okay. I'm digging the focus on drums in the middle part. I'm feeling the drums to some degree, but they need more crunch and less roundness. Perhaps some more bass freqs on the bassdrum, and more highpass noise on that snare -- experiment with some distortion or limiting.
All in all, an engaging tune with some nice swirly pads and effects. THe melodies aren't so bad either, but I think they could go more places than the few that they go (so to speak).
5.5-6/10! (7 for the pads and atmosphere)
