Well, you forgot something really important.

The bass...

The Ambience is Incredible.

The drums sound like tribal house gone wrong. I suggest a harder, more prominent kick, and of course a bassline of some sort.

Love the melodies and ambience though, try filtering out your background synths for builds and lulls.

this is sounding much improved

the percs are ok, just a bit light. there needs to be a bass presence otherwise the track will lack substance.

everything has it's own place in the mix and sounds are not competing which is a really good thing which many producers struggle to do.

the rapid improvement you have made is really impressive, keep up the good work

There is a bass in the song. When i changed it I turned it down because i thought it was too loud so now I guess its too low. I will turn it back up and update

Hey,
Listening .... I will avoid any mastering comments cuze I am using my Pc speakers . Drums sounds nice, nice Pads/Piano, u have a really good athmosphere here since the begin. This could be a very cool progressive tracks working out the build up for that, all the elements are well place, and all the layers are interacting well with each other .
In overall, very cool track, if you would work more the build up into a progressive track this would kick ass, keep it up .

2.33 I love the pads that enter at this point. I would have love to hear them go on for longer (& maybe build up with dual layering).

This track is pretty much the same all the way through without much progression. I enjoyed this style you have created, as it has all the elements to sustain it, though I feel that a couple more layers need to be added to build it up some more. This track does grow on me the more I listen to it; I can see it being a theme to sci-fi movie for some reason... Every sound flows well together.

Anyway, great job on this one Goddess.

Xeno.

I threw some heavier bass in and added some extra effects. I am probably going to work on some layering next but this is the update I have for now. Let me know if it sounds good or suggestions on how to make it sound clearer and crisper.

I think I hear unwanted distortion of some kind on your kick.

The bongos seem kinda weird, although they don't detract too much.

Now I definitely hear distortion. Do something about that, man.

Once I get into the track, the bongos actually add to the atmosphere. I'd say add the bongos when there's an atmosphere for them to compliment.

You still need a bassline. Something to fill the song out a bit more in the low end.

The unwanted distortion was when I added the bass, it not the kick if you listen to the previous edit of the song. No one can hear the actual bass? well I guess I have to fix the bass again. Any tips on how I can get a nice bouncy bass without all that distortion. I turned the bass up mainly because no one was able to hear it.
