liking the vibe to the track....although not keen on the fx on the vocal.also snare could do with a bit more presence...altho im listenin thru it in shitty headphones.nice layers and atmosphere to it.
also isnt that the same vocal sample from a loefah tune?either that or a digi mystikz tune.
nice work though.

Properly not the first time samples from Predator has been used... properly wasn't the first time either when Loefah or digi mystikz did it...
thanx for feedback anyway...
try it on big speakers though. They'll like it 100%, I hope!
cheers,

It's the old rasta guy from Predator 2. Fantastic classic movie if you ask me... love it!

just wiped my message by accident.
This is heavy. There is no compromise from the start with that filthy bass carving in your skull from the start, the 1st drop isn't the heavy smash that i expected but the more atmospheric and laid back vibe works well. A slt mob type track, loving the breath and atmos and the vocal works well. disguised and sinister. The synth breakdown at 2mins sounds a bit bare and slightly out of place, maybe have some breaths under it to keep the impression it is a movement in your track rather than something out of nowhere.
Nice when it drops back in builds nicely and the dist on the bass keeps the development interesting and intense.
Very nice track. Feels 1st gear all the way through but that is a good pace as there is lots of space and development.

After hearing this and the other tracks you've done, you should seriously think about getting some dubs cut.

nice one. good atmospheres, nice dark mood.
the effect on the vocal sample is a bit turn-off for me though.

Thanx! Much Appreciated!
Will post a version 2.0 shortly. Now with a bit more snare kick... Breakdown has been kept as out of place as before, though. For now...
Much love,
JSL
