I made these really quickly.

Sorry for not embedding these, they are private tracks and I don't know why embedding them doesn't work.

it sounds too thin, also the vengeance sample was kinda cringy and way tooo loud on the high end. 

the basses in the beginning are cool, but ain't got no highs, maybe try some distortion. also try n add a cool snare with some nice attack.  the boom part is super muddy, change that.
Who gives a fuck?

Became kind of repetitive. When you introduce that much variety in the beginning of the drop and then just keep doing the same stuff, i feel kind of fooled. I expected it to continue being "complex", but it just kinda kept playing the same 8 bar.

Other than that it seems good enough. Now i'm no expect on complextro though.
I would write something here, but I'm too lazy to do so

Yeah, I really really hate Vengeance samples yet I use them a lot. My goal is to remake those sounds from scratch, and maybe do something different.

just play around with random saw tooths man, use pitch automation and shit. porter's sounds really aren't that complicated.

I was thinking just that. I don't know too much about his Spitfire era, but I know about his old complextro, and damn it's good. Hopefully the new Porter/Dillon Francis collab will be something non "Worlds-ey"
