Whilst listening to this, the only thing I could really think of is "How are you not on a label yet?"

Everything on this track screams at least something which could have been released on VISION, from the basses to the vocal chops to the short and snappy drums. I'd say it sounds more like an IMANU track than Posij, but still doesn't strive to be as bubbly and energetic as what IMANU's released, going for a somewhat darker tone. Not a complaint though, as everything here seems to be near perfected - the percs especially, with the mild off-timing resulting in something *very* groovy. With the way nothing seems too harsh or drowned out too, this is a pleasure to the ears for me. Maybe I'm just biased towards these types of tracks, but it ends in a way that only A+'ers can achieve.

Score: 10/10 (A+)

Well this is interesting, to say the least.

The introduction doesn't start out that strong with the first bass note sounding a little too low, but picks back up afterwards. Speaking about bass, everything from that to the low mids seem to overpower the other frequencies in this track which is a big gripe of mine. On another note, the cat sample is manipulated in a way which I really like the sound of. The lead is quite basic, but it works I suppose. The drums here are a little unordinary with the slightly wet snare drum, the autopanned high hats are quite cool though. Only real problem is that it almost sounds like there's no kick when the lead goes into place, something which stronger sidechaining or a little clipping on the kick could fix. The outro is a little weird, from the mostly unedited sample (1:30) to the sudden reverb at the end - I don't like that too much but I guess that's just me. I really like the idea this is going for, but the things I pointed out weigh it down. This gets a C+ from me.

Score: 6/10 (C+)

Wow... this'd fit more in the Dance genre rather than Drum & Bass but this bangs.

This track starts out with a seemingly calm and slightly un-progressive melody but it turns up the energy straight after and doesn't stop. Everything ranging from the drums to the arpeggios to the synths compliment each other well to an extent that it'll probably get stuck in my head for a little while, not to mention that the mixing seems near perfect for this type of music! My only real complaint with this is the rather disappointing ending, a simplistic fade out - something like the beginning replacing the outro would suit itself better in my opinion. I'm not one to complain much on this though, this easily gets an A grade.

Score: 9/10 (A/A-)
