As for yer avatar, it reminds me of the one the DexDee use to have.
Now for the track, it's nice to see another artist who isn't afraid to push out their tracks, length-wise. Especially considering that it's a House tune. So that's pretty impressive. Most people seem to cut theirs off @ somewhere between 3 to 5 mins.
When the vocals initially started I though you had sampled Madonna coz the way it sounded on the first line or two. And the one ya paired it with reminds me of neo-soul stuff. Which I think helped to round 'em out evenly. The muffled male voice was kinda odd, but in a way it captures that bein high thing.
As for the melody there were parts of it that reminded me of another famous song I heard (though I'm currently blanking on it's name). And the one perc sound ya used with the drums that sounds kinda like a messed up sonar was pretty cool. All in all this is pretty nicely done and I really can't think of any suggestions to make it any better. Cheers!

Thanks for the review Donnie V.
As for the track, I always keep in mind that dj's are spinning these tracks. Often times, when I dj, I enjoy spinning longer tracks: (gives me time to peruse through my library and pick out an appropriate song)

As for the muffled male voice, it's actually the original vocals, drastically repitched. To me this represents ( The Greek God Apollo reaffirming that he's the "only one" in the Phoenix's eyes.) I guess with time, you discover your style and slowly after years of messing with stuff, my sound is coming to life. I'm not a tech head, or a show off kinda artist ( The look what I can do with a midi controller type) etc. I simply wish to keep tracks interesting. This might be a consequence of being an acoustic bass player. We tend to focus on repetition while emphasizing the form/structure of a song.

Cheers.

This house track is nice
:)
the kick is unusually
low in the beginning
but i like when it
gets louder along
with the melody

The melody could easily
be transferred to trance
without a problem

I like this track completely
Good stuff
:)

What up man? Nice track, very nice.. Can't think of anything I would change. I read the description and you happen to have a set I could listen to would you? I'm always up for hearing different Dj's bang..

Description : This sits somewhere between drum and bass, and breakbeat at 150 bpm. I had been listening to The Prodigy at the time, and it definitely shows in the production I think. Enjoy.
