I like the sound design at the beginning. The rhythm at the beginning is a little hard to follow, and the instruments sound a bit thin, likely because of filtering and other mixing effects. There’s a good sense of climax into :56, but the texture there is a little too dominated by low-end frequencies. The sidechaining is a bit heavy, too, and the harmonic content gets quite repetitive. The atmospheric breakdown at 2:05 is nice, although I would’ve liked to hear some stronger melodic content at some point in this piece. The quieter volume at 2:53 threw me off guard a bit, but I appreciated the additional mid-range frequencies at the second major bass drop. Overall, I like the atmosphere, sound design, production quality, and ominous mood of this one, but the composition might need some more harmonic depth and balance in the texture. Keep at it, Adjeye! :)

Wow. This kinda blew me away.

The beginning rhythmics building into the dramatic, defiant melody and the ensuing madbass.

The main synths are heavy as $!#% and the combo between that, the mischievous melodies and the dope beat... damn.

Ah... I remember listening to this track a lot last year.

At first, I thought that the beginning was weird, but I got used to it now. :D

pretty interesting track you got here. love the sound design. And that piano, love it!

Great mix-down and track all around. You're mixing some really interesting beat-work with that characteristic dark-edge. You should be recognised for your characteristic sound!
