I'm not exactly sure what this is.

Anyone chance a listen to this?

Will give it a listen in a bit.

Nice metallic beats.

I'm not all that keen on the synths you have so far. If I were you I'd keep the beginning and then morph it into something Autechre-like, twisting and cutting the beats in different ways, with a creepy metallic pad floating over the top.

Just a suggestion.

Thanks for listening. I appreciate this.

As for the synths, I kind of agree. Unfortunately I worked so hard to get them to sound crazy I just left them in the mix -- they began to act more like percussion than harmony or bass.

Yeah, I know how that goes. You work on some part of a track for a while and then you just want to keep it in there...
