Thanks VonHerzog yeah that synth/reese/bass sound could possibly be less prominent..
I wanted this track to be quite techy, but i found it really difficult to break away from the pad sound and just have minimal drums and bass. Ended up keeping the pad throughout, repeating the sub throughout, and just throwing the reese/synthbass sounds over the top. Also played around with lots of other bass edits, got a bit of loop-fatigue and felt those were a bit too contrived and dropped them..
