If u turn down every sound a bit in your software, and then turn up your amplifier a bit you will keep the same proportion between sounds, but won't clip your sound output (like the bassdrums in this one). Simple but effective.

About the track: I like it more than your other one too. I agree with T.roll on most things.

About your software: I know people who have made wicked things with DOS-based music software, so... Normally u should be able to import other samples into the program (at least .wav files). But the quality of the samples u use is apparently not always top. Some seem to have noise on them (I suppose that was not intended).

Like the conga, but it's a bit too loud
Snare: same problems: not enough low-mid, a bit too snappy. Try layering some metalic sounding snare over it or something.
I like the sound that plays for the first time on 1.41.
Volume of your bassline is better than in your other track, but still a tiny bit too loud I think.
The kicks you sometimes have (like @ 2.39) are defo too loud. Your normal kick on the other hand may be a bit more up front.
You have some weird clicks and pops going on, like @ 3.39, but they are all over the place. Maybe your rendering to mp3 isn't that good, maybe your samples don't sound clean? If you make sample based music (like I do too) you have to pay a lot of attention to them, really. I spend huge amounds of time of adjusting them: cleaning up, filtering, EQing, adding distortion, delay, reverb... Best thing is to make every sound of your track sound at it's best when played solo, than your overall mix will sound much better/fuller/balanced.
About the structure: less boring than the otherone, but a bit more elements really wouldn't hurt!

2.5/5
