the actual beat and structure of the thing, is kinda boring and empty... ( dont take this offensively :) ), the chords are really good but I just dont feel a drive as much... you should try fill it up some more, with percussion and other elements. 

check out this called "air night" : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7EH6pl8GNM    it might give you a few ideas of how your song should feel like.. also try listening to some old mat zo songs.. :p 

hope the link helped :)

It sounds like you're getting the right idea of the trance sound.. But like previous commenter said, it lacks structure and something to make it interesting. Something I've been trying lately that might help you, is to take a favorite song whose structure you want to emulate (same bpm if possible), drop it into a track in your project, and label all the little sections.  Y'know, like at bar 8, snare comes in.. bar 16, open hi hats.. bar 20, supersaw stabs...... etc. etc. write out all the details on the markers.  Then copy your elements into their tracks in the same places. You don't have to stick to it exactly, but it's a good start.

nice work though, it does sound decent.  :)
