im sorry mate but your tracks just bore me... great production level, no creativity
you have more than the capacity to make a good hardcore tune with your production skills and all i hear is an offbeat gated synth with simple simple chords?!
cmon! you have the skill to do something new for hardcore so do it!

Awesome!
Seriously good like. Subscribed too 
The Black Eyed Peas tune flows so well. I love how you left in so much of the vocals.
I need DJ friendly versions of ALL your tunes. They're gonna be on the album are they? Or can I get some before then?

+1.
Do you make your own tunes at all? All i ever see is remixes of chart tunes, which is pretty much everything that's wrong with Hardcore atm. Like trubass said you seem to be a decent producerbut no creativity.
Oh and

Have to disagree. The vocals are sped up too much. They were originally at House speeds so speeding them up to Hardcore destroys the "flow" and makes it sound so rushed.

I have to agree with you about the vocals being sped up a bit too much but I love how he didn't just use one set of vocals for the breakdown and then repeat them again 8 bars after the kick in and them same again for the next breakdown. He varied the vocals a lot and I think variety is good and works very well in this track.

Hi Folks,
Cheers for all the comments and Feedback...
Right where to start.. lol...
At the minute im just on a little bit of a bootleg mission, just enjoying doing it, for my own pleasure... As the tracks sounded ok, i thought id upload them and share for free..
Im sure saying that what im doing, is whats wrong with hardcore is a little strong... no!! Im not filling compliation albums with utter tat. Im doing something free for the scene.. TBH id say im the opposite to what your saying!!!!
What ive been trying to do is just do remix`s that are similar to the original tune. The original tune was a chart smash for a reason, and for me, i like the music and the way things flow.. I spend alot of time on structure and how things transpose...
Im not trying to break the boundrys of production, im just having a play about at home after work.. Sorry if you got offened.. :P
You wont find snare build ups all the time aswell, i dont like them all the time.. its the joy of making music yourself, you do what you want...
As for creativity... I dont agree... If it was as simple as just putting some midi together i think youd hear more tracks like mine about. I havent really..
Ive been getting into the less is more theory recently.. I study music and have started writing but i thought id share what i was doing at the minute..
Cheers for all the comments... If you wanna D/L future tracks, come visit me at ush..
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i merely said "with your skill you can make much more fantastic tunes"
think of it as a prospect/compliment.

I appreciate your comments man, and i get what your saying,
Suppose it was the "no creativity" part... Its not too easy to try and make them work... And i think it takes a certain amount of creativity. The structures are always insnace and dont suite hardcore... Thats normally the thing that takes me the longest...
Anyhows, Cheers fella :)

May have been a bit of an exageration(sp?) but after hearing all the pathetic remixes of chart tunes littering compilations released into the mainstream, i'm sick of it tbh.
I look forward to hearing some of your original material though. As said you have skill, but it's wasted atm, imo tbh lol roflcopter.

I have to agree with Meathead. You have a lot of skill production wise but the creativity is not there. You're much better than me at producing but I just feel like this is any other new hardcore track like a shitty katy perry remix or something.

Thats the point, they are just shitty remix`s... lol. But just hopefully with a better mixdown and sound quality than the utter garbage ones around...

Cheers for noticing man, It was a tricky structure to get to work properly.. But think i got it pretty sorted :)
