Hi,
on the fly :

Nice svd tech touch at beginning.

Kick has too much clicky timbre for me, also it could have some bottom freqs power.

That long BASS notes ( there I hear two of them ): first one goes OUT OF TONE - take a moment to hear that.
03:10 great pause, but you can expand it, and make fade in for melo.
Then when goes again rhytm - it could be filtered because only after more 16 tacts there is really big BOOM.

This track is great musically, but not too good at EQ, volumes, some reverb bugs and also there is some structure bugies...

Try to improve that

Really nice and original stuff - you are definitely talented, but like all of us you've got to keep working on the engineering side to get things sounding just right.

Couple of tips:

You tend to put pads a bit to loud - I think you should try some sidechaining in time with the kick with them - also the kick itself could be weightier.

I'd second that. Some good pads and melodies in there though, def (not too sure about the Koto sound itself...). The arrangement is a little unfocused and the difference good arrangement makes is huge! Seriously, without structure people tend to keep adding parts in vein attempt to find whats missing when it's all in the structure. Look at BBE's Seven Days, One Week - total classic with like 4-5 elements in max, it's all in the arrangement man and a good arrangement is like a good conversation in that you say what you mean and are to the point. Poor arrangement is like mumbling, trying to get your point out - even if it's a good point, if people can't grasp it they give up. Don't give them that chance, hit em with it!

Keep it up - nail it and you've a good track.

WOw...that B.B.E track really doesn't sound like very much after today's standards. I think you must find something better than this for an example...

Yeah it sounds old (the sounds themselves sound old), it's just well laid out and simple, not clouded in ideas, and the arrangement is still pretty similar to modern stuff (many dance tracks have a similar arrangement - intro, build, little drop, build again, breakdown, slammed back in, outro.. or variations of, of course!)
