What the fuck. It almost sounds like an anthem. John Cove, I think you are wrong but this vocal is killing me :sick:
2nd climax makes up for it
That outro is quite boring but okay tho.
A lot of sounds unite in here, this is an advantage. It's inventive I must say _O_
JDX is a :star: worth gazing at

Feels like the only reason for the reincarnation of JDX is that he wants to bring back the dong kicks again and told Scantraxx you let me do this or I won't make a comeback :D

I don't like the vocals that much, it's like not making the atmosphere of the track any favors but otherwise it's decent.

Doubtful, I don't hear much Headhunterz influence in that track, especially given that his productions at the time weren't as "slow" as this track felt.
My guess would be Wildstylez. The quality and the kick for me gave it away at the time, since the other tracks on JDX's YouTube channel don't even come close to LTM, while they were more recent. I wouldn't be surprised if this new track will also sound like someone has (co-)produced it.
In the Wildstylez Q&A on hardtraxx earlier this year he revealed that he had some involvement in LTM. Nothing about Headhunterz tho.

Unfortunately the vocals don't fit, not a masterpiece but a good track :) .

But after the hype/expectations the disappointment is understandable somewhere.

The expectations are a bit high I guess. It's unrealistic to expect a Live The Moment V2.

That being said, track itself is unique, yet a bit boring.

This actually better then I was expecting it to be, but it still doesnt cut it for me.

The outro is fucking amazing, best part of the track _O_ love this sort of crazy unexpected sounds. More of this in 2020 hardstyle please.

The melody is quite catchy. Not a masterpiece, but def one of the nicer melodies. Works pretty well with the outro actually in my opinion.

Now the bad - the vocal. Jesus, can someone please finally tell this michael jo guy to quit raping hardstyle music? This guy is to euphoric what MC Nolz is to raw, him being featured automatically makes the track useless. His voice is just annoying, girly, cheesy, overautotuned and does not fit hardstyle at all. Now i am strongly against homophobia and actually took a part in organising a couple of Pride events, but there is simply no other way how to describe this guys contribution to any track he appeared on, so pardon my french, but: Gay. As. Fuck. And not in the good 'YMCA' or 'Smalltown Boy' sense. 2000's boyband scene called and they want the missing part of their boyband quartet from Bravo magazine poster back.

Just imagine if this track was sung by an actually good male vocalist, like John Harris. Maan :( could have been a bomb of a track. Please go away Michael Jo, your voice stinks.

^this. Melody and outro are awesome. The vocals are ruining the whole track.
