Nice drums :-)
No seriously, I don't recognize my break so you used it like it was intended, for layering.
Basses sound wicked but as always I think the part from drop till end (over 5 minutes with just little breakdown) needs more variation, some stabs, a pad, some percussion,... whatever you want but some variation. This is pretty repetitive now. Also some bass elements are on the edge of clipping.
Really nice roller though.

Nice beat right off. Those little bass stabs in the intro could be a bit more loud. Its shame they are too subtle. The intro is too long IMO. There is nothing much going on and gets a bit boring after a while. Try to drop some more FX to make it more interesting. Heavy drop. But the bass clips a bit. Its too loud. Some of those hihat stabs are too sharp or too loud. It catches my attention cos I had to turn the volume down a bit cos it hurt my ears. The mixdown could use some more work but its not bad at all. My suggestions would be to turn the bass down a bit, maybe try to tweak it a bit so its more clear. Also some shuffles and hihats are too loud imo. The beat is good, the kick is nice and deep, snare could use a bit boosting. Good track man. Keep it up!!! wrm
edit: agree with Battle about the variation. Some parts did get a bit boring after a while...second drop was just copy of the first one imo
the beginning vibe is great....but the booming bass kinda make the drumz feel distorted imo...maybe its just me...as i may not be the best guy giving advice on structure, but dont u think the bass section is too long with the same beat...no breackdown and such...probably a matter of taste anyway...
Those beats are great. They sound instantly good. You must have done a really good job on BattleDrone's samples because his beats are normally wank. Even he couldn't recognise them.
(Only joking Battle, couldn't resist.
)
Seriously tho, they're very good. After 1.30, however, there's some pretty big issues with the bass clipping and the overall sound quality of the mix. Everything starts to sound uncomfortably gritty and clippy. You can actually hear the bass causing all the other elements to duck on those long bass notes. Might be the type of compression you're using? Might the mix going into the red too much on the master channel?
Whatever it is, it needs some attention.
Other than that, it's a really solid tune, if a little repetitive. Good stuff chief.

ez phil, nice phat kick n snare action going on good work
intro pads give it a nice vibe and the delay fx all works really well together.
haven't read what the others have said but after the drop sounds like ur really pushing it on the brink, maybe try carve out a bit more frequency space on the bass so it sits a tad better
overall sounding wicked mate would love to hear this on a phat system!
