hmmm doesnt really flow, pretty confusing track imo
I thought the intro was going to be "dont tell me"
and then I heard a b.s.e track coming through at the drop pretty off with that bass sample

I think you should think about simplifying this track it seems like you overthought this one and didnt let flow, oh yeah lose the grunt doesnt really fit just adds to the discombobulation

sorry bro not feeling this one

easy now, definatley points for trying somink new boss. personally i do like the bass from the drop but it sounds a little too punchy for me - maybe take away some mids from it. not too keen on when the two basses are over each other, play them both at the same time with the same note and then it would be better imo. having said that, i really like that main bass stab sound, sounds awesome - u make it yourself?

drums - i like em, nice and fast with bigger main hits, my fav type of dnb drums Smile could do with some more pinpoint eqing, the crash cymbal sounds like it has too many low mid sounds on it. the eqing is well done tho - just could do with some more tweaks. there is a nice roll into the breakdown, it could be used more i rekon.

the breakdown - with the guitar and the pads is sweet as, like the melodies and the chilled vibe of it. personally not really feeling when you mix that with the punchy bass - rekon they could do with being seperate - gives the drop more punch if you do that. im a big fan of sticking a high pitched squealing synth over the bass and then losing that on the intro, mid and outro of a song - just an idea.

anyways, went off on one - i usually comment more on tunes with potential, keep at it boss.

Overall, I quite like this although I'd agree with 2clix that the structure is too mish-mash and confusing. I love the basslines - they're the best aspects to this tune - but I'm not feelin the snare or the rhodes I'm afraid. The snare is too thin and mid-y and the rhodes sound out of place, imo. The kick is thin too.

As a personal pref, this is slightly too fast for me (sounds 180bpm+ to me?). For extra funkiness I reckon this would sound better if it was just a tad slower, maybe around 175-179.

I really like those bass stabs that Shinyuri mentioned. They are very fat and heavy.

Not the best tune I've heard from you but it's still got some good aspects.
