Nice, getting a bit of a skrillex vibe off your track. Liking the synth before the drop- how did you do that is it a vst or a pitched about vocal sample or something?

Great tune! love how much attention you've put into the modulations and automations of all the synths! the only thing that i've picked up on is the drum roll leading up to the drop becomes a bit messed up when you increase the tempo. you can easilly solve this by placing every second hit on a seperate identical channel.

Like it a lot

LOVE IT! The first high resonance bass drop is my favorite man! Very well done though your build up drum roll is kinda messed up, sounds like its clipping alot? Maybe clip control it and turn down the volume a little bit but otherwise this is really good! Are you using Massive by any chance?

Thanks! It's a pitch-bent synth, Massive specifically, that I used for that part. I just modulated the pitch so that it would drop 2-3 octaves and rise back up. ;)

Thank you Fergy! I'll try your advice on the drum roll thing; it's been bothering me too. ^_^

Thanks rawdog250! I gotta work on that drum roll. I put a limiter on there, but it seems not to be working. And yes, I did use Massive for the most part. :)

Commented, I thought it was the tits. The only thing I'd say is the kicks and such near the buildup (what everyone else seems to be saying) doesn't sound like it's eq'd as best as could be, so maybe just that? Great stuff

Thanks guys! I appreciate the comments and criticism. :) I gotta work on that build up; it's bothering me more and more each listen.
