This track was very nice to listen. It is a piece of music from a demo and it sounds like it too. It really is no song, but more a background soundworld. It has no melody ,but is well tracked and that keeps the song good and enjoyable to listen to. In the beginning the listener can enjoy from a really neat synthpads and sweeps before the bassdrums and some other percussions come along. It was refreshing beat in bassdrum since it doesn't just exist, but it has its own life. Some vocals were also included to the beginning and those sounded good. After the intro some 303 samples come along and the song starts to have some fills. I liked those samples and also the following 303 samples that were used in this song. For a moment this track just goes on and nothing critical happens, it actually loses some samples slowly into the chill-part where the pads take control again. Now the song starts to come into its end, with the same pattern than in the beginning. Ending is ok, some pads and 303 samples live their life together until the very end. This song wasn't that complexed,but it had very good athmosphere. It was pretty dark and oppressive and sounded cool that way. I liked it.=) As said, this piece works very well in the background, but otherwise it may sound pretty dull. Very nice track anyways.=) Good job BenJam... Technical side is ok in everyway. Samples were 8-bit except for one and the samples chosen were good. I especially enjoyed the use of different bassdrums and those 303-samples. Also the strings sounded very nice although those were almost the same through the song. Song was simple from the tracking point of view, but it worked out fine since the athmosphere was created decently. Worth getting.=)
