Silicon Parts / Progressive

Got inspired by Thomas Datt's EOY Mix. Not really sure if it's headed in the right direction. I'm not really great at arrangements, tips and tricks are welcomed.

Thanks for listening.

If I were you, I would look more into music theory and how it works, maybe study some progressive music that's already up on Hooktheory. You seem to know what you want to put into the track, but the execution feels a little organic (which can be good). Let me know if I need to elaborate on anything I said, and keep learning!

I would second that comment about music theory, particularly with regards to composition. There are some nice ideas in there but the tune lacks structure. Or at least, the structure doesn't feel very natural (buildup, drop, interlude etc., that kind of thing.)

That kick also needs to be quite a bit higher in the mix, the low end at least. It might be a case of finding a different one.
