Heya,

So. Intro is cool, not much to say. Drums are not powerfull enough. They could be tighter and punchier. (Snare and kick especially) Main supersaws are weak to. Try to support them using a sub bass and a bigger main bass.

Mix is a bit quiet, although, it's pretty good. Need more high end and sub bass.

Cool ideas. ;)

A good mix could bring this out a lot better than it is. The snare is way in the back, possibly sidechain it to bring it forward. Looks like you have a lot of headroom being taken up by your percussion. Really interesting melody construction, I would like to see where this goes. Need a bit more highs to really fill it out. I would try layering more of your instruments, but don't make it too muddy. Mixing is your friend!

I have to agree, but only in the sense that the dynamics never intensify later on. The current mix would work up till about :30, but then it just seems you need some more fullness/richness in the kick or something. And some sparkle on the snare would benefit (and bring it up in volume, like everyone else said).

Couldn't agree more with the group. For now changed the drums and snare. I think they are more powerful than before. Still working on getting the highs in my saws more noticeable.

Check out updated version with new drum/snare
