This isn't actually awful man, its not amazing but still...Mixdown could be crisper (might be youtube compression), some sounds are a bit off, but overall not too bad. Definately an improvement.

HUGE DIFFERENCE. this is good, i personally would dig this tune if i heard it at a club or a mix. it definitely strikes some appeal to me. unique drum work (especially considering their old shit) and a good concept of movement theyre messing with. i know some of their fans are gonna wine that this isnt as 'inspiring' as their old tracks were, but i know a lot are just gonna be happy that they released more tunes and start dwelling into this kinda stuff. only heard the 'gambler' tune, but this is like a really huge step up. you can tell that they knew their shit was shit and leaped right into becoming better producers.

hope the other tracks are at this merit

briefly listened to the other tracks, not nearly as strong as the gambler tune. sounds like theyre improving definitely, but gambler is definitely a stand out. wish that one synth that goes DU-DUN DUN DUN wasn't as flat, but its an interesting take for sure. the other tunes will most likely appeal to the sound they got popular with, which im not a fan of. but i commend their efforts, pretty smart that they released it for free.

gambler really is a tune tho, really filled up with atmosphere and personality behind the sounds.

i loved the intro to this, the mix gets a bit messy from then tho on and the vocal samples don't really complement each other imo.
but the drums are lovely and this track really suprised me, it seemed like some actual thought had gone into it.

its actual music :o i like the little female vocal. the rhythm and pace are on point and i do enjoy the call and response bassline. that one distorted bassdrop is out of tune with the track, clashes something awful. a little transposition there will make it sound a lot better.

Really big improvement,drums are nice but like somebody else said,that dun dun dun-dun synth is a little flat and could have a better place in the mix..and talking about the mix a lot could be improved but it's still way better than your other tracks

Much, much better than the other stuff. have only listened to gambler, but sounds like it has some proper sub in it. Would remove the male "gambler" vocal at 1:30 and 3:12 tho.. feels un neccesary.

Constructive critisism :

It lacks flow and high ends to be any real sort of standout. But atleast this is a decent attempt to create a unique sound of their own for a change, that can be applauded.
I still wouldn't consider this but atleast this is worthy of the term 'release'. As others have stated : big improvement. I've probably heard worse shit that got cut to record.

Undoubtedly, an improvement. What's Below and Oh That I Had are very good.

That Gambler tune would be 20 times better if you didn't have the wobble in there, jus' sayin'.
