I enjoyed this mix for the most part. Some of the production is a little lacking, but your structure and ideas are solid and I like the relatively minimal approach.
The synth that kicks in at 1:00 gets a little repetitive at times, but I liked the piano parts as it adds a nice airiness to the track.
I think you could have picked a better sample for that kick drum, it really doesn't hit hard enough. The rest of the drums also really need to cut through the mix a bit more for it to be a real solid DnB mix. Some transient shaping, basic EQ, and parallel compression could solve that pretty quickly.
Lastly, I think you could have added a little more midrange beef to it to really round it out. Overall, I give this mix a 3/5. A little bit of improvement and it could have been a solid 4 or 5. Good work and can't wait to hear more submissions in the future from you!
Why is here no comment?
This version is very cool. A nice and solid Drum and Bass ReMix with some Dubsteb elements. Piano could have been a little more into front for my taste. This mix has a nice flow once it has started.
