The trumpets and stabs are lush, really good sound to them. The drums sound like they're sitting a little up in the mix, the high end perc is particularly noticeable in how loud it is.

Love the skittering nature of the beat programming, really abstract feel to things.

Overall feel the tune could do with some variation towards the latter half...rather than just feeling like the same tune repeated over.

NICE! I love dub class man put a smile on my face. Needs some variation in the percussion but apart from that it's solid!

Nice stuff.
I'm loving the trumpet stabs and bass programming.

The percussion is a bit upfront.
I'm also noticing a sustained note the entire length of the track.
I reckon because I noticed it, it dominates my listening experience.
It detracts from the overall sound imo.

The track can use definite variation later on.
You jam the percussion and get things shuffling but it still remains the trumpet stabs.
And then I start to over hear the sustained note because I'm wanting a change.

It's a nice track, don't get me wrong.

I love the dubby vibe mate,got to agree with wub the trumpets sound really fucking good.
WOOOOOOOOO them beats are just stunning,i love off key percussion like that and the way when the shaker type sound drops it makes the beats sound so raw and unquantised and so much more of a natural feeling to the track.
Great track but fuck knows why you are posting it for feedback if it's getting a release,i would of thought that speaks volumes in itself.
