sexy sax. I like the percussion that goes with the sax hits. Vocals sound a bit too loud, and a bit too close in the mix. After the vocals stop at ~1:16/1:17 it feels like it could use a bit more suspense into the sax section. Either a longer/more intense riser, or bringing everything down/out and have the sax come in super hard after the silence. Not sure about the panning going on with the vocals, it's a bit disorienting with headphones. Overall good stuff though!

Thank you I'll experiment with the riser and see how it sounds!

like what the guy above me said, the vocals are too loud, also for the second bit of the song try add more to the percussion or  change it up a bit... just to keep the drive of the song.. pretty nice song :)

Nice song! As the others said, vocals are a bit too loud. Maybe you can play around with the vocals to create a wider, reverbed effect instead of panning. Also it sounds like sub is in stereo? Try putting it in mono, it sounds a bit disorienting with wide subs. Other than that, I like this groove (:
I'm just that guy that loves sound. Message me if you also love sound.

Great, I like it, the elements are all there. Percussion should be bit more present, not too much though on this kind of track. Also the vocals are a bit too overpowering. Otherwise good work :)

typing as i listen..

The first two instruments that come in compliment each other nicely but the placement is rhythmically awkward. like casual said, all the elements are there.  Vocals are overpowering and it pans to the left and right in a disorienting way. i might be sounding too negative so let me give you the good, which it mostly is. Great vibe, nice sounding kick and i think overall you did a nice job!
