    I really like these delay-games-thing on the vocals. Nice synth sounds and nice idea with the cyms panning, too, although they lack a bit attack.
    What I noticed is a very/too quick build up beginning up to 1:28 and (too) slowly changing mainpart. This seems to me somewhat unbalanced.
    Especially that solo synth bar at 1:26 I would lenghten for two beats. I'm totally into that and it's really a small highlight.

    Yeah, the slow changing part is a problem, but it's been a year that I'm working on this track, and I lack objectivity...

    Too short intro (too quickly changing parts) up to 1:26, too long or slowly changing/evolving mainpart (1:28 -fin)

    Ha, the good old unprogrammable DX7. So, you're just using presets? [​IMG]

    Where's the snare at? I was expecting massive gated 80's snare. Everything else is there.

    the dx7 is fantastic
    my take on it, i think you should make the kick and snare punch a tad bit more punchy
    thats it great job

    fm synth rocks!

    Love it. You surely nail the feel and sound. If i could poinpoint it i'd say it falls somewhere between the darker 80's Italo dance tracks up to Front 242/Nitzer Ebb industrial sound all the way to KLF. This flows nicely man, got me grooving alright. Major Dig!

    My snare is not gated, just heavily compressed and limited :)
