Love it as always! Your music is so epic and encompassing. Honestly from an outsider perspective, i'd make that second drop giant, melodic, and filled with pumping pads. I actually was expecting this when i listened to the build. I imagined the kick hits, you hear that little pluck as you do now (except drowning in reverb as it is during the break) and then the pads come. So the pads wouldn't actually hit until the second kick during the drop (1/4bar of silence except for those plucks and kick) and then explosion. Kind of as ilan bluestone does often times with his drops...it sort of goes against the listeners expectations.
Overall the music and the mix is incredible. I think it could be louder. This is something I have struggled to get better at but it is of course all about using your headroom wisely, getting everything to around -2dB and then adding a heavy maximizer/limiter to squash it all together.
Keep it up man!!
