I love bassy trance and tracks that would sound very bassy and deep live with bizarre sounds so after acquiring Sylenth1 I decided to give it a try and this is what came out. * I know the mix kind of sucks I am working on it so if you have any hints on what I should lower/higher or compress etc please help! Over all give me an opinion of how you liked the track (or dislike).
If bassy was your goal, you met it. Just as an experiment, try switching your bass to the off beat. It might sound a little "hard-stylish" but the track already has that flavor going a little bit. Keep up the good work.

So you like? Let me try what you said, can you explain a little beat how to accomplish?

Yeah it is bassy that's for sure. What zhillmusic is saying is when there is a kick on every beat, have a bass hit on every half beat.
Kick:
*---*---*---*---
Bass:
--*---*---*---*-
Should look something like this in your sequencer.
Later on experiment with different bass lines and possibly more bass synths and more kicks. This will layer some and make your bassy track more groovy.
Hope this helps some

Hey I know that arp preset in sylenth - I've had fun with that one (the one in the break). The timing of that preset does not really fit the beat.
Basically this sounds like a collection of sounds with a beat, so it's not really a tune. Early days for you I guess, so enjoy the journey.
