Aite i've only downloaded Lift of Life because im only on 56k, and am too lazy  Its aite, few things you might wanna think about though...
The volume of the bassline is too low, gets lost where it could really carry the tune.
Good layers n key progression n all that which is good to hear.
Somethin i dont like is where you take it down into breakbeats. Sure, do it, but i would try and change the snare - cos in my humble opinion, its a horrible one - and add more rhythm changes to the highhats, maybe even venture into 3/4 for the hihat rhythms.. just anything so its not just the 4/4 hihats over a broken beat, cos it sounds really empty.
I like the synths, i was about to say that the tracks goin no where (because i'm listening as im downloading) but i just got to the change up at around 4:00 which is cool, i like the change in notes and it sounds wicked, especially at 4:18-4:19.
4:35 roughly theres another layer added in which is cool, i think this is where the tune really picks up and shines.
Overall a good track, though i think it needs a bit of help in the bass area, both the bassline and the kick itself. They're both a bit weak and the volume needs to be turned up on both (my opinion tho). If you're gonna have that breakbeat, do it well. There's nothing worse than a cheap breakbeat and i laugh when i hear one  So work on that, and add to it. Try this program hear --> http://www.lysator.liu.se/~zap/stomper/stomper5.exe to muck around with ur beats, you can even make those beats which mirco de govia uses where the bass drops n reasonates, pretty cool wait a seccie, ur using a mac no?...well that Stomper program is for windows, so if you can use it, do! 
Ciao
