Thanks for taking the time to have a listen and comment Gus, interestingly others outside of here like the drums different ears I suppose.

I think the main thing about the drums is that they sounded cheap compared to the rest which is of high quality!

Excellent production.  The arrangement and sounds are really good.  I like the drums and percussion because it gives dimension to the scene as they are more present.   I would look at moving the lead instruments back a touch after the drums come in and make 'em wet like you do at the end of the piece.  
 
Nice textures and feel.

John - Nicely done, the synths are outstanding.  All that is missing is the bass;)  Very cool.

I propped myself against something and listened again? It sounded better!

Thank you Steve for the listen and comment, I guess the delay on the drums is either to subtle or it is getting lost in conversion to MP3 perhaps I should post a wave version via box?
 




I just listened again, and it seems the snare and hihat have a very "rhythm machine" like thinness to them that stands out against the music which IMO is much more lush.    Perhaps a little layering with "rounder" tones and a dark reverb for more depth?

Thanks Jimmy glad you enjoyed my furry rambling.
 
See I told you Robbie
 
Noted Mark, I will see about making a Wave file of this as for you as there is a real Bass rumble drone all through this that just goes phut in MP3
