great gated synths. work very well, hold a lot of energy. drums are muffled, spruce them up wih a bit of sparkle. (i need to do the same with most of my tracks) i find it quite hard to do this well, but the general idea is to use a spectrum analyser on all the idividual drum hits and make sure they are peaking nicely in there correct frequencies i.e kick around 80-100 and snare around 180. also use side chaining on the bass with kick compression to give them room. i would also layer another break in there as well, to add some extra percussion. the kick needs more thud, either layer it or if you have already bring it up in the mix and eq it. a good cheat (and a lot of top producers will tell you not to this) but i find it can work well is to use an inflator or maximizer on the drum group channel, this thickens and brightens the sound.

not really feeling the lead line it sounds to clean and presetish. maybe whack some cammel phat distortion over the bass on the drop to grit it up, just my prefernce. sounds good though

stucture is cool,vocal cool melody good, just got to change that lead and this would be a decent track.

Needs a couple of extra elements to keep things more interesting.
The arpegiator on the pads is a tad too extreme for my taste.

the sample is pretty nice, really liquid like. that sidechain compression you got goin on wit that lead is good, i like it, it gives it a nice bounce to it, bass was subtle but nice, shook my room when i blasted it. the compression of that lead needs to be a sorted out a lil bit more.. its kinda crazy, like, as far as the volume levels go, it just semms like you gotta compress or limit it sumhow. i dont think it sucks.so. good job

Beat sounding pretty big from the off....but it is a little drowned out by the pad
The volume ducking/lfo on the synth is a bit much all the way through.
Perhaps start with it not modulating and slowly introduce it.

Don't like the drop personally. Was expecting it to build up more before it.

Ah its just dropped with that bigger synth. which is pretty nice.

There are two things that are hlding this track back imo.

1) The mix, things are getting dwoned out by one another and they sound like they are fighting for space. All the sounds are great, I like all the synths just they need fitting together better. The beat is fairly heafty although I think you may of over compressed the snare and the snap of it is very clicky.

and

2) The arrangment needs work. It doesnt seem to build up quite right and because of it you loose energy going into the big parts.

Could be a good just needs some tweaking.

What software did you make it on?

The main synth pad is a bit too trancy and dominates the tune in the intro. Like the segments without it most. Like the tune at 2:30. The wobble synth is alrigh, but it can use a little more EQ to make it clearer. The tune does NOT suck, it just need a little more attention and editing. Cheers.
