1st track: tasty drumwork, good choice of drum samples, all crisp and clean! as for the bass, im not gonna lie theres' a lot of bottom end but the chord progression is a bit rambling! maybe you could work on this still? half way through there are those percussive melodic hits introduced which i like a lot! all in all good work and it fades out so i expect it's not ready just yet?
2nd track: huge ass intro! starts out really great. and it doesn't dissappoint! really really good. the bass has a lot of swagger(couldn't think of a better word sorry) and the tune rolls onward effortlessy. I'd play this out, mixdown is nice and clean! if i'd change one thing i'd lower the volume on the bell-like ride used in the drums. 2nd drop starts out huge. again i'm getting the feeling this is just a preview? but yes this is a big one!

untitled six - felt the kick didn't sound quite right, like it's very dry and doesn't have a lot of charcter to it. Good panning for the hats/perc though, gives a claustrophobic vibe to things.
the force - good tune, good mixdown, nice elements...not a fan of the massive break in there though, but might be better if listened to in the context of a set than a standalone tune

wow thanks for the feedback, much more detailed analysis than i could of asked for!
yeah they're kind of demos of how i generally like it, but obviously as an inexperienced producer that thinks something is "finished", there's a lot of room for improvement!
i'm definitely a bigger fan of "the force", i've worked on that for a month or so and the bassline hasn't changed - rolling! haha. untitled six was inspired by sp:mc's taiko dub, love the room and drum work on that track!
chords need work, i know

safe!!
anyone else?
