not bad tunes there, but I do have 2 significant things that came to mind.
Bulby_G Ft Fingaz MC – The Core Elite (Matt Luminate Remix) was good, but the kick and bass were far too overpowering. The melody was very insignificant... it took the drive outta the track completely.
X-Cyte & Revert – Biggest Mission didntt have allot of low end from what I could hear...

Just had a quick listen to these two and i have to agree, especially on Biggest Mission. So much high end and almost no bottom. I'll have a proper listen to all of the tracks tomorrow as i desperately need some sleep. I noticed The Void in there, deffo looking forward to this next batch.
EDIT
This review is a bit brief as it's the second time i've wrote it out now, the first ended with the ol' blue screen of death, but here goes...
X-Cyte & Revert - Biggest Mission
This definitely needs something doing to it before release man. It has almost no low end, way too much high end, no stereo image (it's almost entirely mono) and it's limited to shit. Strange considering X-Cyte's previous tracks and even his other track in this batch. Maybe something on Revert's end? The track itself is good but the production is terrible tbh.
X-Cyte - Refit Your Mind
Nice little Freeform-y number from him, production on this is great, so seriously wtf happened on the other tune? Full of cool little sounds and a sweet riff. Definitely a purchase for me.
Chris Ross - The Void
Good track. Liking the D&B-ish breakdown. The percussion is there but the bass is a bit basic in that break. The rest of the track is pretty good, the kick is a bit loud in relation to the rest of the track but other than that it sounds good. Another for the wishlist.
Bulby G Ft Fingaz MC - Core Elite (Matt Luminate Remix)
As has been said, the bass is quite overpowering, and that weird filtered bass in the second breakdown is a bit meh, i would be interested to see how that progresses though, but other than that it's a pretty good remix.

probably left the lower band muted whilst mastering before he rendered it... innocent mistake really...

Refit your mind - It's lacking a fair bit of midrange and needs a touch more low end. The track is awsome really like it but the mix issues deffo need addressing!
The Void - Really nice track love it. Could do with something sample wise even just a one shot thing. Bass is lacking in low end and doesn't work very well with the kick because of it.
Biggest mission - Nice track though not really my thing.
There is not enough sub bass and a large gap in the high bass right through into the mid. Too much ultra high frequencies too. Does sound mono too.
Core Elite remix - Love what he has done with it (especially the riff edit) but again there is some mix issues. I wouldn't say there is too much low end I'd say there isn't enough midrange.
It's a really nice batch of tunes but there is mix work to be done yet IMO!

Aye needs to be remastered me thinks, maybe whoever finished it off turned the mono switch on in Ozone and went a bit too far with the limiting. Hopefully it all gets sorted and the track will be up to X-Cyte's usual standard.
@Hard2get:
I did have a few words to say on the music, not many but some. Tbh i agree with you mate, but hardcore's rarely known for it's musical content and all people seem to want to know when they post tracks is how their production sounds. Unfortunately a track doesn't have much hope of selling if the production isn't there, i'd comment on the music but what can i say? Ooh i love the lead, very different? The melody is so fresh? This isn't a pop at the tracks btw they're good but Hardcore in general.

what do you mean?? :S
That people only care about production instead of the music anymore.
It's so sad. The musicality is the best part.
IMO there is nothing wrong with lo-fi or bad production if the music is good. I would buy blink-182's Flyswatter for $25 and that was recorded on a 4-track in a bedroom.
With that being said... these are gone now but I really liked all of them. end
