Nice job, I'm really liking the chord progression and the upbeat vibe! Great work with all of the synths, this has a very unique sound for DnB, which is very welcome! My only complaint is that the kick and snare feel a bit weak when they enter at the 'drop', maybe including some more sub bass frequencies or finding better samples would fix this, but it's honestly a personal preference thing. Stellar work overall!

Good to know. I wasn't sure with the percussion since it had sounded fine on my headphones but was a little bass heavy on my speakers. I'll try changing things up a bit in the final mix. Thanks dude.
Hey there, decent track. i like the chord progressions and the synth are quite nice. i think that the hats and cymbals kind of overpower the drums a bit. maybe group the percussion tracks and give them a touch of sidechained compression. using the kick as the sidechain source. you could probably get away with doing it to the melodies and pads too. give it a bit of a pump and bring out the drums more. maybe have some motion and filtery type stuff on the baseline too. maybe even some distortion. check my tunes and tell me weather or not you think i'm qualified to comment on yours or not! :-) 4/5
Alloud responds:
Thank you for the feedback :D
I never really found the hats 'n cymbals overpowering... They've been stereo separated a bit so they'd be "out of the way". As the track currently sits, the bassline is sidechained to the kick, which is what I'd hope would give it that extra motion. I don't really want to distort it anymore than it already is since I wanted a fairly clean sound.
Bringing the drums out more seems to be a common request though.
I'll take what you said in to account though when I do the final mix, thanks again.
