You should maybe turn down the audio of the just the trumpet sounding lead, but only outside the drop, because the volume it presents during drop actually blends in really well with all the other "larger" sounds, but it remains the same volume throughout. Because the the audio is not actually that much quieter outside of the drop, the perceived decibels is making the lead stand out just a little too much. Main lead should present itself front and center, but it should still play nice with everything else around it, especially if it's present for a good chunk of the music.
.....
With that out of the way, I still actually like this, nice melodies, the upbeat halfbeat up and down of the main lead, with plenty going at all times to keep you interested. If it was more synths instead of sample libraries it would probably end up sounding pretty Porter Robinson-eque.

OH and this is just a personal note, but Predator doesn't feel like a fitting name. You think predators, you think harsh, dark, high energy sounds, but this is obviously nothing of the sort.

Thank you sooo much for your feedback :) Will keep an eye for it in my new stuff! And it's really sick that you can hear a bit of Porter Robinson inspirations in it, I don't think I have made that too obvious. And I agree that Predator actually isn't a fitting name, it wouldn't really fit in any of my songs I will produce I think, but some friends of mine really wanted me to produce a song called Predator, so I just wanted to make them happy and named this one Predator. Usually I pay more attention to the name.
