    This mix is very good. Nice and big, with lots of space. The only thing that is missing is a melody. Slow it down and it could make a great bed for an industrial rock track as well.

    Quite liked this Alex, possibly some additional ear candy would help not sure though.

    Cool!  I liked it.   Dark and eerie, with a nice combination of tones and well placed hits. 
     
    BTW, if you do break out that guitar, some backwards hi-gain guitar lines might fit nicely.

    The industrial percussion made this stand out for me and some nicely intertwined synth play. lacks a melody to make it truly memorable. Loved the song art work too, simple but powerful
     
    Love that sound effect at 2:54,pro cinematic stuff

    Extremely well mixed. Must have been a challenge with all of those sonic bases to cover.
