I don't know what to make of it either. A little into it, it got very disturbing and I had to "kill the noise". LITERALLY! Experimentation gone awry. Thanks for the share.

Hmmm. I liked the initial bit, but once the aggressive samples came in I found it...antagonistic, to say the least. Was that the idea?
A little painful to listen to, Mate!

There are some good sounds but it needs more rhythmic variety beneath the lead and for the lead to be a little more musical. You should work some more on it, there is something here.

this.
apart from that
it f'ing rocks!
just be sure to make that kick 4 -> floor.
And maybe pull one or two of the usual minimal arrangement devices.
the very last part is only a measure or two, that could be more
my humble 2ct of weird taste

i would continue working on it like others said.
its definitely different. i like new sounds. but around 45 seconds in it starts to sound like you are just dragging the branches around in synplant.
i do think your on to something good though.

I enjoyed it...great stuff, pretty industrial but from 3.30 on it had a really dark house vibe about it..
Id still say the kick is letting it down a bit...Id layer another kick sample in their and just EQ it for the boom/sub frequencies..as it stands its too sharp imho
some great kick samples here if you're interested
