Hmmm... firstly the tempo is quite fast but ok, it's your choice.

Perhaps you slap everything in too quick, pads, bass the works, so you are not letting the track develop in a more natural way.

I think you need to look a little at the structure of this track too.

Percussion could do with being beefed up a lot more both in terms of compression and indeed complexity.

The balance of the mix in terms of the high end needs to be sorted as it tends to drown out both percussion and bass in the track.

All in all though for a first track it's not bad.

Keep 'em coming!!!

The track is full of interesting sound, but the mastering is so-so. I really like the wall of sound feeling, but it feels a bit muddy at times.

And yeah let it develop for longer... hard to mix a track when its changing so rapidly from the first beat.

Otherwise, real nice track. I will be saving it.

nice synth programming, nice melodies, nice energy

good job

tempo is a little high indeed

whoa nice choice of synth, tempo does eem fast though

i like how you use the drums

I like your choice of chords aswell

1:18 seconds... im in a trance

1:45 seconds... oh gooooooodddddd

2:00, yes

its a masterpeice

3:12, that chord progression confused me a first, but after listening for a minute my ear started to like it.

4:10, perfect

great track imo, im no dj or anything so i cant help you from that perspective! ps... after hearing the whole song, the higher tempo was a good choice, i grew to like it at that speed.

I didn't like it a whole lot, to be honest from the get go. To me, it was a wave of clickies, sawpads, and bass tones. I suppose I agree with Nemesis 444 to a degree with some grievances in addition. I think that mid-bass sounds a little too much like a tube being played in an overdrive amp.

I like the squarish synth in the first break. The last break featured a very interesting use of a hardstyle saw lead that sounds like a Vanguard preset.

I'm sorry, but I think that I tripped on something somewhere, because I ended up not liking the track a lot. However, I see alot of potential in you, and you've probably written tracks that I would like.
