Right, so this is a WIP and I would love some opinions on it, not really sure about the first part especially. It's not really the kind I usually create. Any and all constructive feedback greatly appreciated!

not a fan of the intro. before 0.30.
then it gets nice and darkish, still the notes on that pad would be better sorted out.
Drop is mean. too much filter tho i think. Kick definitely needs to be meaner. deeper sub. i like what you did at 1.48 and after.
keep tweaking it

Thanks for the feedback, I agree that the kicks are weak, need to find new samples for them I think.
Not sure what you mean about filters, could you elaborate?
Definetely fixing the pads on the intro/outro aswell

wow man i liked it alot but i think the drop is quite messy freq wise. Very cool ideas though and i like the mood and theme of it! The kick sample feels kinda loose and overcompressed.

Kick sounds like it's distorting now, especially in the intro

you're right, not quite sure how to make it work other than eqing the intro, never been good at eqing drums for some reason, maybe it's just the choice of samples, I will look into it when I get home
