Hi guys, I go by the name of erm... Jo Dough. For me, I don't know why I produce hardcore. But I'm here anyways and would like to say HI to all. I have a track in progress.
But the question arises - how do you know wether a track is worth continuing to completion? I have this track in progress. I think it is sounding good. But should I finish it? Is it worth it? Take a listen and please let me know what you think.
Cheers :)

Thank you! It's a bit of a mess at the moment, but I still have to go back and change the transitions and fix some of the instruments. Thanks for your feedback :)

To the 4 people that have listened to my song- thank you. I realized that I had accidently routed my kick to a send channel, meaning there was no kick in my mix! Woops! I've fixed it and put the kick back in the mix.

Please, please criticize it! Thank you!

Because you like it. If you don't it is not worth it. There is no other point to producing than you like it, the same as all art. That is unless it is your job to churn out crap for money.
Anyway the tune itself, while modern Hardcore is not my style, it sounds good. A lot better than most stuff that is currently being released. I think it's worth finishing personally (it actually resembles Hardcore). I disagree with everything Archfluxx has said, apart from the bit about great riffs. Clearly you are doing fine so far without others' input so just keep doing what you're doing. I especially disagree with his comment about the need to add bass. To me the track is solid on the low end, change nothing. In fact it is especially good on the low end. Good choice of bass.

Thanks for your input, hard2get, I really appreciate it. :) I think what you said is a good point and its worth finishing :) I actually did layer 3 basses and a sub and sidechained the sub to my kick, so thanks pointing out that the bass was all good. This weekend, I'll try to finish the track by working on the arrangement. If it turns out good, I'll post up the finished track :) thanks again.

Is Hardcore a hobby, fun or an expression?
