this has great, great potential.

a few comments though

-cool intro! you caught my attention really fast with it. only it seems like the bass is clicky between notes. that can easily be fixed by increasing the attack.

-IMO i would use a different kick drum sample. you could do better.

-the "glitchy" bass break down part was pretty cool it just seemed like it went for too long

-around 3:30 ish (i say this to everyone) that vowel bass shit.... its so played out man... its sounds horrible... just my opinion though... i have a personal vendetta against it.

good ideas going here.

nice remix in your sig btw

-i thought the clicky bass thing sounded cool so i kept it
-hook me up with better kick/snare samples and i'll love you forever, you have a good sounding one. i layered a couple kicks, compressed and eq'd, from wave alchemy 808 kit but i've always struggled for a good clean heavy kick sound. my snare is lacking in this song too but w/e it kinda goes
-i have a tendency for long sub sections but i didn't think this one was too long? 16 bars
-that vowel bass shit turns into bangers at clubs

love the tune man. Catchy intro, filthy drop, then an awesome dance beat. This would be a really easy song to dance to for sure. Oh and nice job with switching up the drum pattern before the chorus.

big up man

listening through headphones, so i won't crit production value, just musicality.

Pretty superb from a musical perspective to be honest, very intense from begining to end, gives me a real Castlevania feel, and I love it.

Could almost picture this being in one of those games.

Drop is very cool and original sounding, lots of weird sounds and interesting rhythms that work well together, the only thing I'd say is that some of the sounds feel a little out of place, a little more thought into what sounds compliment each other would really help this track, there's a lot of super clean sounds that just don't fit in over all the filth. The Cartman sample feels a bit random too :s kinda comes out of nowhere and doesn't seem to fit in at all.

Great percussion throughout, really well thought out rhythmic patterns. Nice sidechaining, it's an overused idea, but you work it well.

One major plus factor for this track is that I can honestly say I've never heard anything like it in my life. It's an insane blend of lots of things that I love, serious baroque video game scoring feel combined with intelligent dirty drops. While not all the sounds are new the way they're used is great.

There's lots to love about this track man, it has some imperfections, but I think they're completely redeemed by the originality of the track.

Fair play!
Some mental glitched out bass noises in there,particularly like some of the rising bass synths at the start.
Well done on gettin it out man

[ElSonido]

Loved the epic orchestral intro.

The synth sounds are great. All diverse and well placed in the stereo field. I'm finding it hard to criticise really. That pinging sound around 2 minutes could be dropped a little bit? The drums are well mixed.

Great track, liking it.

thanks for the awesome constructive feedback guys really appreciate it.

yeah this makes a lot of sense, i actually have been thinking about that with my songs. i need to have more similar sounding synths, sometimes things sound out of place and more like clutter than music. i'm still figuring out how to go about that, maybe creating less sounds but more variations of those individual sounds. that's what it sounds like with most respected artists anyway. and i'm a huge south park fan, i know it was random but it's more for comedic purposes than any musical incentives

[pain]

Interesting stuff indeed. Nice to hear a different song structure than what we normally hear on here. From the deep bass intro with the vania' synths Kaori mentioned to the breakbeat with the melody to the tom like solo section that comes after it and finally the actual drop. Pretty awesome. I actually enjoyed everything that comes before the drop at 1:08 much more than the main section. About them cartmen samples mentioned, had they not snuck up on the listener at the end and been throughout the song, it might have fit in better. Big up for the dl.
