Whoooo!!!
Spooky intro 
Something creeping up the stairs 
The entire track has a dark feeling, great!! What kind of vocal lines do you plan on putting on it? I wouldn't go for sweet vocals, but for something nasty like Faith In Chaos - Possession!
I like the track a lot, and those tiny sound effects way back in the background really add to it, I actually looked over my shoulder twice now cuz I thought I heard something, but it was a tiny little thing in the track swamped with reverb
When the snare appears in the beginning it's way too loud, and the kick drum too - I think it's better to bring up the strings until the break starts rolling, so the difference in level is not so immense.
The conga's are nice, but you should try alternating them with the 4-note arpeggio since they occupy largely the same spectrum. The quick notes you do on the conga's are a bit lost in the arpeggio.
The break @ 2:13 -- don't bring back the arpeggio so soon, start teasing it again @ 2:36 or later and really bring it in from out of the deep, with the hollow modulation such as you do at 2:52 (that's great how you treat that sound there, try working on it a lil more 
)
It's also maybe a good idea to bring in some eerie whispered vocals at 2:13
*shivers*
The build up is great, and the rhythm is too (try out a different snare perhaps?)
The bass seems to jump out at certain notes, but that's probably cuz it tickles my room resonances
(yep I'm blasting at full volume 
)
Gonna listen on headphones now...
Yep jumpy bassnotes are gone
just as I thought 
Wow the bass sounds a lot more subby on my h/p's
OK rewind one last time and check the balance...
Snare's too loud, hihats too quiet. Arpeggios need more stereo width, bass sounds too wide, can give problems on vinyl.
Great the amount of detail you put in it!!! I've now listened at least 6 times and it's amazing how many small things you do with the rhythm, and the modulation etc, and lots of sound fx to add more atmosphere, very very nice!!!
