Hi there,

I've been working on this tune and its about 25 hours in, I would love to release around the 30-35 hour mark and call it finished.  I would LOVE any feedback on mix, flow, phrasing, sound design, theory, WHATEVER.  Really I just wanna hear what people think!

Thank you so much.

Really like the FX used at the beginning. Alongside the subtle synths, it sounds really nice. Absolutely gorgeous snap/clap sample used as well, and mixed very well. Sounds perfect in the mix.

Boy, the mixing on this is super solid. The kick has some nice hat work paired with it to bring out the high ends, the vocal chops are really well done with solid reverb, and there are just enough breaks to keep the beat moving, yet not too many to where it breaks the vibe.

At 1:54/1:55, the sound is so crisp it's unreal. Absolutely spot on mixing and mastering. I'm honestly not the biggest fan of the DnB percussion that begins underneath here, but it's subtle enough to where it doesn't make too much of an impact.

The synth that starts up at 2:45 I think could use some sidechaining to give it a little bit more bounce to go along with the other elements.

Incredible track though man, I'd say this one's about as close to done as it can be! You should toss me the link to the finished track when it's all done, I'd love to hear it! :)

Some wonderful feedback, I will definitely look into that sidechaining!  Thank you so much!  :)  As for the "Amen Break" drums buildup Im still on the fence about it, very good to hear your opinion on it! 

Again thank you!  looking forward to completing this.

I like it a lot as well, for what it's worth.
