[sorry to top-post]
I've been busy, so I'm late to comment but...
I have to agree that it sounds a little harsh and synthetic, but as a
first sketch it's great.
Oh, and (sings)
"riders on the storm"

The same tune, slightly changed but with quite different
instrumentation. Doesn't sound like the same thing at all!

Yes you're probably right. Maybe I got too dazzled by the effects and
forgot the instrument is supposed to support the music, not the other
way round!
I've been doing more experimentation with 'softer' instruments - it
totally changes the character of the tune.
Would anyone like to add a fairly aggressive drum
track to something
I've been working on?

Hmm. I think you should invest some more work yourself. I see some
potential, but think the sounds are too digital and sparkly for this
one (sorry for being broad, but this is what it comes down to). I would like to suggest giving a listen to
Propellerheads Spybreak
and perhaps the James Bond theme plus On Her Majesty's Service.
No exact matches in mood or anything, just prime examples of the
direction I would like to see this taken. Propellerheads beats
qualify as fairly aggressive, given that I'm sure you don't usualy
listen to Alec Empire or something ;)
Hmm, didn't think of comparisons with any of those (not watched James
Bond films for years). I can see a parallel with OHMSS.
... I'll be back!
