listening...there is like a crackle throughout, could just be streaming on my old computer....to the aesthetics!
Good atmospheric intro, vocal is very good and pads are nice, like the beat nice chilled thing....the crackle is huge tho....is anyone else experiencing the same problem? Good breakdown, one of the things i really like about your tracks is how everything blends so well....not like section stop section start etc...but very organic in the feel....sounds bare definatly but all the elements are there to work the magic with....was very difficult to listen tho with the crackle....excellent piece of chilled dubstep tho.

the vocal sample is sonny chiba...am pretty sure.
i like the tune, wouldnt add much more...maybe a simple light melody.
maybe like some pan flute action in the breakdown...
drums are hot, and the atmosphere is nice.

Thank you all for all the positive feedback! I think I'll keep it pretty much as it is now, but try to add that little melodic extra flavour... definately! And work everything a bit to fit even better together.
The Vocal is Sonny Chiba. It's from KILL BILL vol. 1., and it's Hantori Hanzo talking about how to be a warrior in combat... yagu ninja style....!
This is the english translation:
"When engaged in combat, the vanquishing of thine enemy can be the warrior's only concern...
...This is the first and cardinal rule of combat...
...Suppress all human emotion and compassion...
...Kill whoever stands in thy way, even if that be Lord God, or Buddha himself...
This truth lies at the heart of the art of combat. Once it is mastered... Thou shall fear no one... Though the devil himself may bar thy way... "
I like that!
Word....
One luv!
JSL
