A track about Rainbow's umm... usual casual afternoon relaxing flying hours. Or something like that...

Kindly critique EVERYTHING: composition,structure,sound design,mixing,whatever you can think of :)

Great use of stereo separation withe instrumentals. Drums could use a little more punch, they sound nested in the background, and when I listen to DnB, I like to hear drums with punch, and in front of the mix. I like the sub bass. If you mixed the drums better I think they would go together quite well.

Not a big fan of the bass at 1:30. Try putting distortion on that bass to make it sound more interesting, then put a side-chain on it to break it up, because now, it's just one continuous bass tone, and that doesn't sound interesting to me.

Other then that, I like the calm, instrumental take on DnB, keep it up, I think you can develop a great style from this. Good luck.

Thanks for the feedback! :)
I've fixed the drums now (I think), and now working on the bass. Is adding a chorus/flanger to it a good or not so good idea? Anyway,the hard sidechaining really does makes it better.
Maybe I'll upload a newer version sometime this week.
