Hey guys,
finaly had time to start some work on the new intro for this track. I found it really difficult because anything i do sounds wrong because im so used to hearing it the way it was originaly, but a few people did say that it sounded like two songs, hopefuly now its starting to sound like one song! Im happy that the new intro and first breakdown shaved some time off the track which I wanted to do.
Anyway, critque away! Im not after mix comments cause i messed around with levels while doing the new intro so im more after arrangement, etc, advice. Thanks guys,

You me not really like my comment but I wont to be really honest with you and tell you things which ultimately going to/should give you additional tools to produce something which have much more chances of surviving in today EDM market - well I guess you have my point lol.
For me this whole 7+ min track could be compress to 3 min and give you the same feeling of knowing it very well - so what I'm saying is that after 3 min mark a lot of people/listeners will be getting bored and probably stop listening to your music as you stopped grabbing their attention and not adding anything new/interesting to your creation - you as producer have to figure out how you going to entertain them for as long as is your track length is - at this point you got my attention for about 3 min lol.
Cheers man, hopefully you are not taking it personally

ha, its all good mate, the heart takes it personal but the mind doesnt, just gotta tell the heart to STFU for a minute while the mind contemplates suggestions and advice!
Im not sure I could get it down to three minutes, I can try, each of the basslines in the main three parts of the song are different melodicaly and tonaly, so it may be difficult, but I'll give it a go.
At the end of the day Im still gonna go with what feels right, regardless if it goes over 3 and a half minutes, etc. I dont think Id wanna sacrifice the 'feel" of a song to meet a time standard.
see how i go with it!

Hey,
im a little unclear as to which part you dont like, are you talking about the section where the bass filters down, kick drum fades out and its just the pad/choir playing?
