As I said it is a raw unprocessed cut. I have sent it out here for 
feedback from people who might hear it differently from what I am 
hearing on my system and may be interested in figuring out how to make 
it sound like what I am hearing then telling me what level they had to 
tweak to get the sound palate to jump forward in the mix.

Aphex twin on valium is not the comparison I was expecting. Clearly 
there is something that is dampening the palate on your system or maybe 
you are only listening at a fraction of the volume that I am.

Did you even hear a beat?

Here on my speakers the beat is strong and powerful. The bassline is 
progressive and all encompassing and the wierd noises that are injected 
into the mix are constantly self modifying. IMO The tempo and rhythm are 
similar to tech house that I have heard and the progression is well 
defined over the 1 hour length of the track.
