Drumlines should roll more fluently, add some ghosts maybe.
Not feeling the main synth, this synth and the co-lead wobbly arpeggio (introduced at 1:53) don't match (off tone). Add some more bass stabs, the tune doesn't have clear bass elements. Nice atmosphere around 0:40 Vocal is great.
You need to build more tension, after the second drop some elements should be added to make it a steaming roller IMO.
With some rework this is a good track.

First of those drum edits sound weird, and then the cowbell makes it even weirder sounding. I dig the mellow vibe once the pad comes in. but then you start adding the dark snippets, and it just throws the tune of again. Once the main break starts I like the ideas, but the bass and synths call for a way uglier and nasty break. i would rethink the drop. All in all not bad, but not very good either. Ill give you a 6/10 just for the mastering and mixdown

Hmmm maybe to work a little bit moer on the build up in the intro u will "mask" the drum confusion u made in the first drop IMO.
More bass in this tune is needed the stabs are somehow "slow" and "soulless".
Interesting FX u use there...
The synth are nicely tuned but u need to calculate the beats and the bars where u play them....
The second drop needs to be rearanged....
Not much is hapenning....
But interesting idea I rate this 6.5/10

Intro drum's sound real dry,..maybe layer the odd shaker to smooth thing's out a bit,..background pad's could do with a boost,...real nice chord's n sound's btw,...maybe edit that break in with your drum's more,...give em more rollin action,...some real nice ideas in this,...lovin the deep dark chord's,...cheers.

Thx for the replies everyone
They're really helpful.
Can anyone tell me what a ghost drum is exactly?

i go down to the velocity part of the piano roll and i use the pencil tool to make random changes to each note's velocity. as simple as this may be, it makes a world of difference when you listen to the drums.
use use ghost snares. they in a slower song, they should be very subtle with low volume. a ghost snare or a ghost "flam" every now and then will make a drum sequence sound more human
