Your hi freq are all messed up in this tune. It distorts so bad in certain spots when certain synths combine. The main intro break is a little lame and plain, but it does the trick. Now the drop, ooooo.......same lame break nothing changes, and nothing but synth diistortion. The master on this one is pretty awful imo. The idea is good, but I can tell this is a work in progress, and the end piano, synth thingy needs to GO,it just popped in as I was writing. Good ideas, just needs a supreme makeover imo. keep rocking tho

Oh yeah and check out some other peoples tunes if you have time, I only see you stop in and upload tunes, and dont return the feedback on others tunes.

Good ideas but very bad mixdown, much distortion, the breaks are alittle boring. Its the early stage, so im not going to give you a score for this. Cause it would probably not so good. Nice ideas ike i said just need some serious work.

It sounds a bit overcompressed on some points to me. The break is not loud enough and the basses are too loud.
There is a lot of work to be done on the break, cus atm it is deadboring and it certainly misses a great deal of power. It wouldn't get people dancing in this state.
There's work to be done here!

that pad is a bit cheesy......pitch it down an octive maybe.
ah see what people mean by distorted....i thinks its distorting on the master fader either that or you have gone over board on the distortion as an effect.
sorry i really cant review it properly as it is so distorted.
from what i can tell this sounds ok, need a clearer version to give detailed review

Intro seems to be proper but try to avoid "bass like synths" in the intro....
You need some build up in the tune.... the first srop comes suddenly...
Try automated band pass filtering to the drums or hats... then try to add some new atmosphere every fourth bar....it usualy have effect...
The drop....
More variations are needed.... the tune is monotone and it need changes... There is only one drop and everything is the same...
You need an intro, then first break, then build up, then first drop, second break, second drop and outro... That is the usual arangement in almost every music, but don`t take it for gospel...
It can pass like this, but you need to make some breaks every fourth or every second or even every eight bar to make some variation... this is only a friendly tip.... try to make change in the drums, then in the basline, try to vary the frequency and the pitch of the bassline and similar to that... you can for instance add some FX in the tune, vocals...
Now the tech aspect...
Too much of compression is applied here....
You must understand frequencies... if you have proper frequencies you will have very easy task called mixing....
Even when you will mix well the tune, you will see(hear) if there is any need of equalisation or compression... in other cases eq and compression are used as an effects or as tools for "polishing" the tune...
In your case for the overall mix try this compressor setting(but only when you will finish the mixing): set the compressor to sof, then set attack to fast, release 0.4s(if you don`t have that option set it to auto), then set ratio 2-6:1 (you will "feel" where is the proper setting) and set output gain 2-10db (I think proper is 6db but you try out).
Now before the final compression you need to MIX all of this sounds you have in the tune (the drums, the pad, the bassline and the square like synth in your tune). Best to mix proper is to MIX QUIETLY... meaning set the overall volume to hearing limit, and then try to mix step by step, the bassline and the drums, then drums and bassline with the pad, and then pad, bass, drums with the synth....
When you have finished mixing then try to equalise all of it...
I can`t say what eq settings are most proper for this tune(because it is too muddy) but I think that cutting low-middle (200-1000hz) will solve the problem... if too much of theese frequencies are present in the track, the track becomes annoyng, because the human ear is very sensitive on theese freqs.
Hope I was helpfull

i dunno maybe your levels are all clipping and its all muddy and distorted.
the style of the tune isnt my cuppa tea... so im probably not the best person to comment on the style.
