A lot of these tracks I've been posting are expressive of the way I'm trying out different things and exploring new material and ideas. With that in mind any suggestions are helpful/appreciated. And thanks as always for the support, even if I don't have the time to respond individually to comments.

love the cymbals

First of all: I'm really diggin' your work and this piece. Now, since you asked for suggestions I wanted to share a tip that maybe could make you look in other directions:

The whole atmosphere of the track is amazing, so are the samples and sounds chosen. I could only suggest the main drums are a little dry until the new "acouistic-ish" drum breaks enter at the end. Maybe it's a concious choice, but why don't add some slight reverb. I mean, not directly TO THE DRUMS but to a copy/pitchshipted version of them, so you get some subtle "ghost" atmosphere of the beat instead of a maybe too bright and obvious reverb ambience.

This are my two cents. I've played this track three times and will be on repeat in my iPod for a long time smile

Gorgeous work

digging it, nice beat, good ambiance. nice work.

Very cool atmosphere. I like where this built up to, found myself wishing that part in the end came in earlier in some way too. I could envision some more panning effects/separation sounding cool too. I've been meaning to start playing with panning more myself but haven't really done so yet.
