Rodri thanks for your work Man. Bare in mind my comments are only MY sensibility take on this so please feel free to ignore.
I like the darkness here and the sense of a journey, but I think you could do a few things perhaps on the groove. I was wondering for example if you really side chain that bass, with not just a 4/4 sidechain driver but maybe something quite swingy and make it really pump with the percs?
The break - it's close to the original - how would you feel if I said make it A LOT more your own, and make it more devasting so it blows up in yer face?
Drums could be more fierce and pumping PERHAPS?
As I say, just my random thoughts, I'll leave it with you.
Maybe some others can help out with feedback here?
Cheers for the effort so far.
Thank you for the advice i'll change the break , percussion should be more noticeable, only the hats are audible, i dropped an izotope ozone preset on the master for the preview because i was mixing on low dbs and now sounds a bit squashed and barely audible but i think i'll oadd some offbeat bongos, i wanted to make something different to what i usually do, more minimalistic and proggy but if you also think it needs more groove and pumping....

Minimalistic and proggy + groovy and pumping is definitely possible!!
Check out Tarantula by Pleasurekraft, or the Bass Kleph remix of Joan Reyes - Shakedown, they're both minimal tech house but they're incredibly groovy and have awesome, bouncing bass lines.
Whelp! I think it might just be done! Added some ear candy, amped up the low end and did some changes on the bass. I'm SUPER FREAKIN' HAPPY with how this came out
Hmm.. Deadline? Any change to get midi files? From bass and lead. If my remix will get chosen, what do i get? Happy mind? Any other information that remixer should know?

SEANDROID - Thx for your work, will submitt this to label for thier decisions. Good solid track mate.
PIZZAGUY - sorry mate no midi, I converted all to audio. As for your return, whatever is usual I guess. Last signing I had the label signed the remixers work individualy so I had no dealings.
i'll try to have mine finished this weekend, i'll be abroad from friday to sunday so by thursday night is my aim... a real pity that we have no midis i am not used at all to work with samples

If you want people to make remix, upload midi files, or at least, take a screenshot how the notation goes or something..

DEADLINE - could you guys try and finalise the remixes now, and give me the link you know to be working - soundcloud preferably so I can forward to the label. I should warn you the big label are messing us about a bit, and pee me off wanting alterations, so this may well go to a smaller label now, but hey ho.
Please no links to dumb advertising platforms, as AR people don't have time to mess about with them!
Ha - Eddie you naughy Boy you, like your style!
I perhaps shoulda supplied midi, but jeeze on some remixes you get one 3 second vocal loop and that's it.
i've just finished mine, i feel a bit rushed but i'm leaving this night although i'm finally happy with the result, the tune has been developed in a good way i think, now sounds interesting.
I send you a pm.
