well first off, dont start with all the percs at once
preferably, bring the clap in later
bass needs quiter, less stereo on it, as well as synth, sounding kinda muddy, maybe less reverb on these two things, and more equalizing, kick needs to be sharper
melody is alright, i think would be better if quality was better
kinda has an oldschool blank and jones feel to it or something
so keep tryin to fix it if u can
almost there

Sounds pretty good. Not my style tho. It's all too cheesy! You need to rework some things too. Remove some of the stereo expanding & reverb (Main percussion for example always sounds best when centered and not to much of high and low's on the verb).

The bassline sounds a little softwarishweak, but that can be altered with some good eq:ing and a nice compressor. Some leads need to be altered to because they sound kinda cheap. And the kick need more PUNCH! (also fixable with a compressor).

Sum of all: Work more on your synths... they sound too cheap! Don't know what equipment your on but i rec you either start experimenting more with your sounds or "buy" more expensive software

Melody is what keeps this song up... it would be real sweet in an á above & beyond stylish track.

I'd give it a weak 4/10 as it sounds for now.

Learn how to use a compressor and master this... and it'll be another trance track for the masses perhaps... agh... as I told you, I'm fed up with cheesy trance

as said, its advisable to add to percussion as the track progresses.
the clap has waay too much reverb on it. try reducing the decay time.
the synths are very wet, too much reverb again. there doesnt seem to be any direction, melodies keep coming from nowhere, changing the feel of the track. at one point the melody stops then starts.
you need to take more care in what you do.
crashes and fills amount to nothing, you expect something to happen but it stays them same.
sounds like you have some good melody ideas, if a little cheesy, you just need to stick to a theme and build on it, this track is a pile of melodies that do not work together.
learn how to structure your tunes first, that is really the basics. getting the pro sound just comes with time and effort.
