first time please help, kinda dark

I've been workin on this throughout the day:
http://207.210.67.178/~delucad1/mik...el%20cloud4.mp3

someone let me know how i can make it better and any other feedback, right now its called hazy street im gonna change that name for sure. I want to get rid of the clicks but I dont know how at the moment they just appear as part of another synth. Anyway, any responses are welcome.
edit: i was able to get rid of the clicks for the most part, some of the rhythm is sounding a bit jumbled and i need to work on one of the rhythms because it is kinda clashing but otherwise im proud to get rid of the clicks. I honestly like the idea of having the snare kinda quiet, and im still tryin to figure out how to make a nice bassline.

the hihat you bring in can be alot louder brings more energy!
your synths are really nice! the clicks are excessive high freqs I believe.. but listen to what other ppl say about this im not an expert on equalizing.. like that pad lead.. very chilling percussion. your going the right way!

i agree about the clicks, though i think they work in this composition. i think its great the way it is, a bit minimal and subtle. what i recomend you do is progress with very smooth transitions into something melodic, what that is is up to you as a composer. though i'd bring in some moving and very deep bassline + a hi eq'd and delay/reverb'd melodic line. whatever you do tho, keep this original feel to the track, it sounds sweet

i added a stronger kick, and changed one of the synth patterns around a bit(tryin to reduce clashing). A producer/DJ i talked to said that this sounds like minimalism which ive never heard of i guess its a form of techno?
