Thanks!

You are right, they are abrasive because of additive EQing on the master high end, but right now I'm not really concerned about the mastering part of the mix  About layering stuff, I was thinking of adding some epic latin vocals with Voxos, but first I have to work on the drop.

Thanks! I'm aware of that, but please consider this is only a work in progress with a simple master chain on it. The final track will have really dynamic ranged orchestral intro/main parts (RMS around -6/7 Dbs) while the drop will be more aggressively compressed and dubstep oriented with an RMS of around -3/4 Dbs. Right now I'm more focused on the sounds and structure, so, I'd really love to receive feedbacks on that  And maybe ideas on the drop, because right now I'm not sure if going for melodic but still growly or going for a really fat and bass oriented drop.

Listen to every orchestral dubstep, to be inspired. Although WIPs with master chain isn't the best idea ever. Better to have nothing except a fast mix.

Ok man, everyone has his opinions about having a fast master on. I have a master chain to listen how it feels sort-of mastered. However when mixing/EQing I turn the master's FX completely off and it's off pretty much all the time, except for when I want to hear the mix "differently" to change perspective and listening to it slightly compressed by the MBC and with a limiter on to bring it to 0 Db. Tho, to me having on the master something for checking the stereo image and the complete frequency spectrum is vital.
