edit: note about the trackname.. i wasn't trying to be cliche'd or funny or anything.. but it's what came to mind as soon as i reazlied i made it in 100 minutes.
Excellently produced as always, and filled with rich, crunchy sounds. My main gripe about this is that I can't really see where the track wants to go, and it comes off sounding rather random in terms of structure. I like the way you're going with this sound though, so keep it up.
it's an original production piece but really i can't get into it. the jackhammer-y fx get very annoying to a certain degree but they are a cool feature.

Yeah. I pretty much echo Jan's comments.
Need a sense of direction, even if it's a techno tune

Awesome track. I like it. Reminds me a lil bit of Orb.

Nice composition. Glad to hear that you did this track on almost a personal record time, respect for that. Agree with the other comments about that effect, it was annoying to me as well, sorry m8, but it doesn't fit to me. Everything else is nice, no complaints but the effect mmmm. Keep it up.
being a bleeplover and all, i'd def. play this, at the beginning or the end of a set. much of the reaction i see in this thread seems to come from the fact that this is mainly a trance site (not to say you guys don't know whats good).
It has a sense of old skool feel to it (might just be my ignorance ). Nothing really makes this track stand out in a sense, but that doesnt mean it cant be a good filler sorta tune. I like the bassline for the most part. If you focus in on the rattle snake sound it doesnt work too well. But if your just listening overall its not as bad; maybe touch up on that or use it less often... Hope this is what you were looking for in a review.

very interesting choon, like others mentioned - seems to be missing something but sounds very reminescent of Front 242, t99 or some NIN work. Can definitely use maybe some vocal samples on top or some sick acid line weaving in and out. maybe a big "boom" now and again to keep things moving.
Keep working on it and finish it up, certainly a decent start.

Interesting, Pipers. I like the rattlesnake and your use of unorthodox sounds. Cool intro. It just ends too quickly.
I like the hollow pings, I don't know what they are, the ones that sound like the spoons hitting the coffee can.
Feels a bit seductive, like an "on the prowl" track.
