Track I've just finished writing.

Hi guys, I'm Joe, just found this forum and having a blast browsing around. Since you have a production forum, thought I might as well post a track that's nearly finished that I've been making the last few days.

It's a bit of a strange one, some bits I really do not like, but haven't found anything better to replace it with yet

Ignore the title, I'm useless with names for tracks.

Comments are much appreciated, how would you change it? What would you do?

Thanks!

I like it. The bassline is cool.
The mixing needs work. The track seems to lack stereo width. It feels like everything is centered.
Since the bassline is very noisy and loud I would try to make it wide in the stereo field.
Keep your sub bass in mono.
Clone the mid frequency bass synth and detune it a little bit. Pan the original synth hard left and the cloned one hard right.
Your mix will sound more open by doing this since you have most of your sounds crammed in the middle of the stereo field.
The bassline could also benefit from some slight ducking.

Thanks for the comments, much appreciated.

The reason the track lacks stereo is because I blew one of my speakers a while back and never botherered to get a replacement, however this will now be high on my list!

cheers
