Bare in mind I am still quite new to production and still learning - - - Dont hate!

My concerns are mostly about the Bass line; IT SUCKS. I cant seem to create a good sounding bass synth or put it into a grooving line. So, the bass line sucks, which im working on, my other concerns are the mixdown and transitions. the transitions are not as smooth as I want them to be yet, and the snare seems to be to quite, and that silly cymbal at the end of the second brake down will be taken out.

What can I improve in this track? The bass seems to muddy. I would like to add some stabs or other elements to put some drive into the track.
The best part of this track imo is towards the end, where I layered the melody of the pluck.

what do you guys think? Thanks!

It's a playfull thing. I'm thinking it could use dirtier bigger sounds to boost the impact. The bass you have seems to work though.

Bass doesn't have much sub. The kick is also pretty flimsy. Could try hi passing some of the synths a little. Work the delay and reverb a little.

See thats the feeling I got from it, Its very playful -.- I want to use a thick, sub saw type bass as the sub to give it more impact.

Yeah I'm gonna mess with some delay on the pluck synth. Also gonna work with a new bass synth. Idk man I kinda like the kick, Needs to be a bit bigger though.
