Easy mate! I like what your doing here, do love the ambiant moods :D

I personally would change the snare reverb, for me this kind of soundscape relishes that long-lushes reverb: this one sounds like a gated cellar, if you follow? It's also quite forward.

I would re-balance the samples (if thats what they are) that come and go: Jump out too hard for me with the current levels.

I would also like to hear some more variation in places: I do it myslef, and end up shredding my whole track to pieces till it's right :lol: Conjur up something that would allow us to momentarily breathe - detract us from whats going on and re-introduce whats there so it's fresh again!? Myabe listen from the begining and get stuck on a loop that lasts one beat at a random place: Might provoke something interesting? I've done it by accident too many times that I care to mention and, you know what,.. It worked lol :D

I still think it has a long way to go, but the ideas there mate keep it up!

Hope this helps mate,

Artery.

Cheers for the extensive feedback on the track bro! Really appreciate it. Yeah i think we will be looking at this track before realising it properly for variation and better mastering on the samples.

I'll keep you posted on what happens to it, thanks!
