I have recently started making music on FL Studio and would appreciate if you listened and let me know what I could improve on.

Thanks - DJ Convikt

Its a little all over the place. Please dont be upset that i say this. You will learn more over time. My suggestion mute all the synths except the pad and try to make a melody that compliments the pad. often a few keys in arp pattern or sequence could sound cool. Its up too to design towards your taste. Load up your favourite track song into whatever program your using and use that as a guide when to change certain elements or introduce elements sort of like a song structure guide that could help.

I agree with Djaroo you have too much going on at once. A lot of newbie mistakes happen when they try and do too much what you want to do is have just one theme in the song and focus everything on that one theme

Think about it if everyone is in the club dancing going crazy at one of your themes of your song each time it changes up they will stop dancing to it or if they are listening to it on there cd or ipod they will go to the next artist.

The second thing i noticed is the note lenghts all seem to be the same with the same velocity try and make the notes longer and a real instrument i mean a real musician will not play each note the same velocity even though you are programming it you still want to program it like it was played by a band or sounds as real as possible.

One thing that may help you is imagine your at a concert you never see the guy on the guitar,the sax,the violin,the piano,the keyboards whatever you never see them playing there own solo at the same time.

no you dont so if i were you i would create space for example find the best theme in your song and focus your whole song on that and dont have every track playing the same time it just gets crowded and each track is not getting heard.

thats my 2 cents

Also work on a fluid rhythm. If you're looking to make a trance song, try and follow a trance structure!
