Nicely mixed
I can feel the real tune underneath the Drum and Bass, which is what would be ultimately required of a remix - without it, the sound is that of a completely different tune would be the result and not what you were after.
Maybe at some point in the tune, you need to take a complete break from the original sample track and give us a completely original bridge from yourself, for example.

Dude... the whole track is like a bridge from the original. The source tune only really appears in the slowdown, as it is 3/4, and the song is 4/4. If you want to see what I had to work with, click the link below to the midi.

A little messy
The number of rappers in here crossing over makes this track sound messy. Plus, they also seem to be busting the rhymes from quite some distance from the mic - there's a little echo in the track.
It really sounds messed up at the end, as there were about 4 different guys all yelling stuff at the same time - I expect this from Reel Big Fish music, not from this kind of Rap track.
Take a step back, listen to it and edit it better - maybe get the guys to record their parts seperately and then splice them all together. Editing is difficult, but worth it.

Improvement
This track seems to contain less emphasis on the swearing and more on the beat (which shows great variation) and there also seems to be a message in there, though I'm not sure exactly what that is.
The pace of the song is pretty good as well - I'm glad to see that the vocals could keep up with the tune. I liked the ending as well, as the scratching definately fits in with the whole theme.
Still not Indie :P

Indie?
I'm not the worlds biggest Indie fan, but this isn't Indie :P Try Rap or Hip Hop as your genre for this submission.
I'm not overly impressed with this song, as it seems that the emphasis from the MC is on the swearing. It's not big and it's not clever (It's an Italian Midget :P) The beat is just too simple to really carry the track - you need to try adding at least different notes, because you've got all of 4 available to us here.
At least the quality of the sound is good. I can't fault that at all.
Not sure about this...
Not that I'm saying it's a bad tune, but I have absolutely no idea where you found the idea to call it "The Human Genome".
Personally, I thought that the opening and ending reminded me of a wildlife program about cuttlefish (Don't mind me, I'm just musing here :P) but when the drums kick in, it really takes off to more of a night club piece, as that's what clubs tend to have these days.
A nice short tune and the single handedness of the keyboard all the way through sounds so great, that it's simply the best part of the track. Was this entirely done by computer, or did you actually wire up a keyboard for it?

Not quite military...
I get the feeling that with the title and the sound of the piece, you were aiming for a military theme. The beating heart of the drum throughout the piece was evident, which is a really nice undertone. The trumpet sound was what subverted me from the thought of military - you should have used a bugle :P
Still, this has a similar quality to the Last Post, which is traditionally played as a remembrance tune in the UK. I can see that this one is a more modern piece (duh :P) but it also points towards the people currently fighting not only for the freedom, but to stay alive in conflicts.
Perhaps this tune goes on too long... I would have considered making it to 3 minutes long and then changing it to a loop. It would work much better if the tune suddenly stopped and caught the start again.

LOTR meets Halo
With this piece, I can feel the way that there are large forces at work here, preparing for some sort of major conflict. The subtle undercurrents of the political rivalries fuelling the flames of war.
The Bells were a really nice touch - not quite tolling the start of the war, but a very nice addition to the piece. This one finishes really nicely as well, calmly fading to black (if that would be applicable to sound :P)

Catchy tune
The opening reminds me a little of 'Money for Nothing' by Dire Straits. The tempo being quite high, it reminds me of the late 80s / early 90s game 'Road Rash', where you were riding a motorbike in a race, pursuing all of your rivals and beating them around the head with a chain.
I like the blend of instruments, you've worked well on getting them all to play together so neatly. For the record, it really suits the Sauron visulisation as well :P
I look forward to hearing more of your work

I don't really see the Money for Nothing in this.. But alright xD
As for Road Rash.. Well, I've never heard of it, personally. But any game that involves motorcycles and beating eachother around the head with chain is cool in my books.
I also found the instruments blended rather well.. Surprisingly well.. Unintentionally well, even! Haha, seriously.. I only spent an hour on this because everything just seemingly fell into place.. Glad you like it, and I'm sorry I took so long to reply. ._.
Enthralling
This piece certianly puts me in the mind of the everyday happenings in a swamp - the clicking reminds me of certain creatures which communicate by clicking. That was a very well done part.
Given that the goings on in a swamp for me tend not to be so rhythmic, it's hard for me to appreciate the bass beat, as a uniform beat through the whole song just seems too regular for it. I'd have given different beats through the tune - change between maybe 3 backing tracks for the whole tune, just to give the impression of the entropic nature of the place.

Reminds me of a national anthem
Kind of akin to "Advance, Austraila Fair", albeit without the bass track which National Anthems have for their impetus, this one is a kind of inspiring track, something that I feel should be saved for a few more days (Armastice day is Nov. 11th, where people in the commonwealth remmeber the sacrifices made by soilders and other members of the armed forces.)
As such, I quite like this track, but I would appreciate a little more backing, rather than just having the keyboard / organ in the track. Not needing things like percussion, but a bass beat would certainly help.

Thanks for that. This si going to be my first song that Im going to edit so give it a bit of time, Using bass is hard when you already like the song xD
You know, I stopped shaving to think of something to write here. That worked out well.
