Listening.

The kick is very weak to start off along with the bass which sounds very octavy... synth work is ok but the percussion will need a great deal of work... the kick is now lost in the mix, compression???. In with the 303 lead again which is a bit too loud and present, mabey tone it down a tad.

Breakdown is not synchronised at the start, maybe bring it in with something... The breaks lack alot of perc and effects and the vocals are predictable with the gated effects over the top.

Coming back into the mix, the synth effect is annoying and too high pitched, theres no real melody within the track to give it some attention.

The one thing i enjoyed was the two synths at the startup.

0:15-0:45 - needs something to keep the listener active.

3:02 - the scratchy sound is overpowering and then leaves out of nowhere. Start it softer and fade out.

3:29-3:33 is very cool. Throw it in reverse to aid a smoother entrance of the voice. The voice entrance is way sudden and then doesnt come back for a long time.

6:30 - thoise FX sounds would sound better IMO if they had more reverb and sounded further away.

overall I found entrances of new instruments to be predictable because they entered every 4 or 8 mesures. Consider changing entrances of new sounds to give some suprise to the listener.

Good start

The FX in the beginning are nice.
I dont really like the bass. I cant really say whats wrong about it - something feels just not too interesting about it. We will see how it evolves.
0:50 .. there some interesting sounds starting. How did you do the sounds starting at 1:00... theyre cool?
1:50 ... maybe the snare is a little heavy compared to the other percussive elements. I'd love to hear some more percussion, maybe make it a little more present. Ah, at 2:27 that gets better.
Nice dark acidy stuff so far.
The flanged synths in the background dont really seem to fit. They seem kinda flat.
You now got some sounds which have too much resonance IMO. I like them in a way in this tune, but generally, I'd try to avoid this kind of sound.
Well, your mastering is pretty good as always, didnt find any real flaws in there.

All in all, a very original tune. Sounds interesting to me, and somehow the fusion works. Not my everyday style, but I can see this is quality work (with some little minor flaws)

8.5/10
