Few things to note (and some are just personal preference):
In the drop, your mixdown is very cluttered- you could definitely do without so much going on in the highs/high mids. Almost sounds like there's white noise in the background constantly.
Another thing about the drop (and in general really) is that your drums aren't coming through all too well (up until the second drop, that's where they start to fit). I feel like they could stand out a bit more.
Your lead is quite high pitched, so those parts where you raise the melody by an octave actually hurt to listen to.
Another thing that I wasn't fond of was the noise that happened on the 4th beat of (nearly) every measure in the drop- it just made it sound kind of sloppy.
On a positive note, your composition is fantastic and your drum samples fit very well. Once the mixdown is cleaned up I can see myself enjoying this song a lot.
you're right! i eq'd out some layers and it sounds better now. running the drums through a limiter to pop them out.
it's a vocal sample with formant shifting - good point. i turned that down and it sounds much better now! good ears.
