You've got some good ideas, but it still sounds raw. Try to add more dimension to the arp sequences by applying effects like delay and reverb.
Depth is something that is lacking in this production. Also, I wish there was more variety during your main riff. It sounds too simple. The snare needs to be heard and is a usually one of the main driving forces in trance. The quality of this sound is really important.

| Work on the dynamics and main riff mate, it needs to be phatter, sounds too mono. Nice ideas though. |

A good thing to do is Layer it, just copy and paste the synths, also a good thing to do is slightly pan some things left and right (not too much) so that thigns int he middle get room, like the bassline, kick, hats and main riff. |

| Yeah that does work well, bass slightly left and kick slightly right, nice one :D |

I wouldnt pan the bass or bassline, Pan the fills and little lines . Leave the main riff, bassline, kick and hats and snare in the centre. |

You should never pan the bass drum or bass line, not good mate. |

| Is that more of a compression issue then? |

Thumb of rule: Never use too much compression, never pan your main elements: bass drum, snare, Hi-Hat, main riff and bassline. |

| Yeah but if your bass/kick is giving out distortion then you need to adjust by compressing it dont you, obviously not kiling it |
