Breaksy/epic/electro track

I don't know how to classify this. How would you describe it in terms of genres?

It starts out with a pretty deliberate heavy beat, but turns into a more breakbeat track with epic string parts. This is probably my best produced track so far. Tell me what you think, please!

Very good. Intro/Outro chord pads very Kraftwerk/Tour de France Soundtrack-ish. Strings are great, think you could add even more welly to it with the dynamics or bass-end or summat. Good stuff.

great track man. love all the subtle little fills and stutters on the breaks here and there. definitely got an early leftfield dub influence going on there in the first half. perhaps some of the synth filters are a touch too extreme/energetic for me.

how long did this take?

Glad you guys like it.

My tracks usually take me around 40 hours to complete... Is that a long time? I've always got all kinds of layers and details.
