Hi,
This is a very balanced and well made track, but I feel maybe a bit on the tame side. I think it could benefit firstly from some long modulation and phrasing. You cite Minilogue as an influence, and I think for instance this is one of the things they do best, that is phrasing and creating tension and release in their tracks. You create some tension but it doesn't really go anywhere.
I think the various parts of the track are too separated in the final product and that maybe you could have them work together to create a more intelligble groove.
If you want certain things to stand out, such as the high percussion you have coming in periodically, then maybe you should make that even stronger.
I think it could benefit from some kind of disturbing sound that rips through it. Your track is like some kind of interpretation of silent brooding to me and the scary vibe would be complemented some kind of sharper disturbance. Are you familiar with Shackleton's Blood On My Hands? This is a good example of such an occasional disturbance in the midst of a relatively stable and quiet track. It signals change and also gives a DJ a great chance to adjust the mix. Another example of this would be Isolate by GummiHz.
Good work.
