Like the stuff you forced in that intro, nice launch for the drums .. I must say you sliced them breaks pretty well, nice beats ...

That synth indeed creates a mysterious sphere, especially when they get louder ..

Like the drums starting at 1:00

Not so found of the melody at 1:15 I find it a bit annoying

Cool bass at 1:43

Nice stuf for the moment

First the positive things about this song:

- the drums sound good, enough compression and variation
- the intro of the melodic bass at 1:09 is the best part of the song

now some tips to make it better:

- adjust the intro so it starts with a string and don't repeat the trumpet twice, just play it once
- make sure that the pad sound in the beginning is in the ritm of the beat, here it sounds too late (the maximum amplitude of the pad should be at the start of a beat)
- there is not enough structure in the song, work around more around that bass at 1:09
- the sub bass at 1:42 is too loud and give distortion, it supresses the other bass-frequencies, make sure to filter the subbass and compress it enough so the other bass sounds sound as good as before

Anyway, good work !

alright this starts unexpectedly, dont be lazy and make an intro!

youve stacking sounds up again, too abruptly, what I didnt like is the way that resonant bassy string entered, put a change in the beats before

nice bassline at 1:10, youre improving! but, it came a bit late. make sure you have a buildup before that, you could use the part before the 1:00 change to introduce it

drums are messy and IMO too much of the loops start at the kick, so they sound too generic. the second amen you place is not bad but its way too louder than the first

second bassline jumps in, sounds cool with the distortion. but its too repetitive, man. think about making it more than a single pattern, gets boring pretty fast like this.

acidy synth drops in, again abruptly, I can see where youre going with this, but it seems youre still having trouble in the way you introduce elements..

some nice ideas and sounds, but work on the drums and structure so that everything that happens in the track makes sense

After I listened to it a second time it did sound good as we know sometimes a second or 3rd try can give a better result

I like the start and the beats are nice, I would cut the stabs though. If you could double the time of it with an ambient break when the song ends and remix some of the first parts back together it would be cool, 2:23 is too short I think.
