Like this percussion riff that songs start with much, tho as soon as the kick comes this riff is certainly too much in volume. Lower it and it will work great. Bassline is kind of strange, I hear it mildly cycling through panning space on HPs, if its intentional, i dont really like it  You also might want to adjust some volumes, bass notes vary much when you put it octave up-make those lower. Buildup melody is nice, hardtrance style. I do have an issue with clap. It don't really work well imo, its to high in pitch, sounds somehow cartoonish over the heavy background synths. Try to EQ the highs away a bit, or make it play lower. Transition to break is nice, however, when the melody starts playing, id like to hear a crash cymbal or something simmilar in intention. Melody is nice, i like it a bit dirty...
...
hm, I think that melody change was unnecessary, since you change it back in a bar or two. The climax is nice, mfirst melody ain't bad at all, work very well. Now the alternative melo is back for a brief again.
Im unsure what to think of it. Its cool on its own, but not in a such mixup. I might suggest you to try bringing that melody to play steady ower second half of the climax.... that might work very well actually.
The slow down melody after break is nice, breaks down to outro nicely.
A word about rhytm. I think the hihats are way too simple. You got this beginning riff+hihat that is folowed by the open and clap. You might try to spread you percussion a bit over freqs, all of it is very sharp and hight now. Add some hihats and filter them or pitch them down. That adds to depth and complexity.
Tehical mumojumbo: Id look onto volumes a little bit more.
In the climax, i can't hear a slightest hint of bass, and a whole too much of openhat+clap and melody. Rise the bass, lower melody some and cut a db or two off the hats. Overall, whole song would benefit of a little cutdown of the hight freqs. a tiny bit.
Hope I proved helpfull
