some more variation would be nice since its basically same thing all the way thru. but i really like the vocal chop things and the whole idea of mixing trap with that sort of music is pretty original. also the main pad/synth thing is slightly abrasive and could use a bit more ambience if you get me. but yeah not bad :)

Thanks man :) I see what you mean, maybe if I don't fully open the filter on the synthy pad thing until later, so it sort of creates a second drop and also add some more synths and sounds in there to switch it up a bit, thanks for your reply, means a lot :)

Intro is maybe twice as long as it needs to be. Beat itself is quite repetitive when it hits, there isn't a whole lot of variation going on. Pitched down vocal is a bit of an overused idea, but the mixdown and synth work compliments it well.

Thanks, usually my mixdowns seem to be the part that lets my tunes down :) I suppose I do need to add some variation, but in terms of vocals, other than use unpitched vocals (which is even more overused) or reversed vocals (which one of the samples is already, and is quite common too) I don't see what I could really do with them...I guess I could pitch them up, but the voice was already quite high and I didn't want it to sound like a chipmunks cover haha, thanks for checking it out though man, appreciate it a lot ;)

This is pretty sick man, really sleek. All I'd say is you sound a lot like a lot of other people. You've clearly got the difficult bit down, I'd love to hear something produced as strongly as this but with more of your own mark on it.

Thanks mate, really I only made this tune in the spur of the moment one day, but it's getting a lot of good feedback and I enjoyed it a lot so I think it's safe to say there'll be a lot more where this came from, next time I'll put more effort in and try and make it more original :) Really appreciate this feedback guys, means a lot.
