Snare sounds like a clap, pitch it up a bit.
The ghost hits are too silent. That flute sample is not really the best choice and that harpsample is off tone. The track sounds too much as a drumloop with bass on it and then a series of samples being dropped on top.

Not bad but like Battle said, there's not enough interaction going on with all the elements. Sounds like you've put some samples on top of a bassline and drum loop. They need to gel more.

Bassline needs more variation but is interesting enough. The flute stuff sounds good to me. I'd probably concentrate on developing that kinda vibe - something fresh and airy against the fat bass.

like the ethnic feel to this, intro drums are good with a solid kick, track doesn't really flow in my opinion, sections dont seem to progress logically enuf, maybe some fx to help one section develop into the next.
bass is decent, could maybe do with some more variation tho and some automation to give it some movement.
drums are pretty repititive too, screaming out for a layer of tambs or rides to me.
some of the sounds like the flute sound good, give a nice vibe but track is let down by being a little disjointed imo.
not bad tho, keep at it!

flutes.. strange fade in. solid kick and snare.
now its just drums and a sound in the background no energy there. vox comes in and now the bass wables.
it really seems that so far this tune has a very nice idea here but that it should be sped up and more hyped up for it to work in full effect.i really dont like that flute. now some strings? just thrown in there... doesnt really match. drums fade out. new sounds comin. dull.. that bass is bitchin though. now its becoming boring and to repetitive. outro introduces a new break which is not a good way to end a tune.
