Here are some comments a m8 of mind made on MSN. I've editted slightly for better viewing.

Hope he doesn't mind. He'll probably make his own comments 2moro.

clear kick, also nice clap, your highhats dominating, lower the volume a bit

synth is on the background a bit, bit more high freq

string need more warmth, maybe more reverb, little more delay and panning

phat saw pad would work good with the lead

dont compress or EQ, first sort the balance with volume, especially on hats

MY COMMENT:
Got a stacatto lead running the same notes as me pad that I tried to put in the background of the main hook, but it hasn't come through the mix very well.

you can fix that with panning and frequencies

pann the main lead a bit to the right for example

then your counterlead left pan

percussion samples at the beginning are kinda crappy and a bit loud as well. Intro also tends to go on for a bit too long IMO. I know that everything is building up but it takes a bit long to happen.

Melody is sounding promising when it comes in in the breakdown around 2 minutes + but it could have used more of a build up when it comes back in.

I like the idea and I think is sounds promising but the track lacks any depth in the overall sound, which I think could be solved with a little eq maybe. Even a single band parametric to bring out the lower end more.

Cheers for the comments, but I am unsure where to apply my Eq on this production. Would you be kinda enough to try and ellaborate a bit?

I like the tune guys!!!

Liked the way it builds up, maybe a little less on the sinths would be nice, and perhaps more of a vocal eliment in the drop or some sort of piano riff...

But appart from that all good, keep it up !!!

On the master channel. I just thought that the entire mix sounded a bit too hi-end dominant.

The perc at the intro realy dont fit in here. I like the background choir alot. The bass is pretty good. The melody is ok, pretty nice, but too simple i think. FX are nice . The pads are too high, and you have used only one pad am i right? and its the I. Pad from pro53 ? add some sub strings to warm it up abit.
In general i liked the main idea, you still need to work on it though.

Cheers mate, keep working .
