Would love opinions. I guess its a cross between Finish-NRG/Freeform and Hard/Psy Trance.

Very good. Nice edgy sound. In fact maybe a bit too edgy: maybe too much high end overall?
The bass could be tighter too. Maybe transpose up an octave or play with the filter to make it less mushy.
I'm listening on HD-25's for reference.

BTW, myspace is the worst place to demo your work: their player only plays if the myspace tab/window has the focus,
which keeps me from being able to listen to your stuff in the background while I continue on with other work.
Try Reverbnation, it's all about music. Everything works very well there and they pay the artists for pageviews & traffic.

Hey thanks for taking the time to listen. I ended up switching samples for the bass and tweaking the eq a bit more as well as switching to my "standard" hard kick i use for pretty much everything. the low end sits much better in the mix now.

I don't think the highs will change much except for some fine tuning on the eq. I've always loved dark grinding/wailing synths.

Now if I could find some people who dig this type of music :twisted:

Thanks again for the ear on the bass. Kinda had an "Oooohhh" moment; I've always had trouble with over-doing bass.

Gonna look over reverbnation as well.
