i am just writing as i listen here:
.47 - damn dude this sounds amazing. 
1.18 - lead that comes in here is a bit too loud i think, sounds good tho, appropriate amount of FX.
2.16 - the lead in the break also seems a bit loud, but its at the right level rel. to the 1st lead. imo this second lead could be wetter. maybe an lfo with a slow attack would be cool.
4.33 - the notes you have selected here are prime 
6.42 - the atmosphere here is really good
7.34 - i think it would be cool if here you brought back hints of that first lead (the one that shows up at .47) maybe with some different FX or hard panned or something, just to tie it together.
Great track mate, I am excited for the official release of this stuff!

Great track, just 2 things, and this is just personal taste and on the spirit of highness i would make the breaks smaller, but really small, kinda one kick small, at 2.16 and before the outroo, from 5.50 i have to thank u, pure head fun not many things like that around, really really well done.

i will repeat some points already made but anyway:
lead .47 love the dub sound as well, great. feels like an andromeda track at this point
lead 1:18 great sound, but defo 2 loud
lead 2:16 do not like it at all, destroys depth of the track and stands out in a not psychedelic way, dry and unpleasant imho, try an octave lower or smoothen it somehow by modulation or verb?
after break the 303 style loop with strong stereo spread and mod feels off timing (it is not but feels like it at least on headphones)
actually i would cut out 5:20 - 5:51 and go psycho after the break directly, the part inbetween is not necessary or makes anything better imho.
lead 6:37 great and very twisted but also very loud
basically the track is filled with a good story and lots of psychedelic ideas, like the kick bass (quite low in volume though) but the mix sounds as if your ears were tired while mixing it? some of the sounds really stand out far of the mix which keeps you from getting into the track and pump the volume up. arrangement wise its quite cool already, sort the mix and maybe a sound here and there and its a great track in your special algae bloom psychedelic daytime style keep em comin

Hey friends, thanks a lot for your feedback and kind words you say about my music! This is very important for me.
Klip, man, you are right about tired ears, mostly working on Algae Bloom at nights, so levels sometimes are ridiculous. But that's why I post it there
I applied all you advises on mixing, made the dry lead wetter with reverb, but didn't do any modulations there. Actually I like the sound and how it stand out a bit. I think I was tweaking that sound since naybe last november, when started the track and finally I came up with something that I like. I think such track is ok in the context of the whole album, and I think it will work great on the dance floor. That 'in your face' feel. Still need to test it though, didn't play a set of this music yet.
Klip, about that 303 lead, i moved it a bit to the left and like how it sounds this way. You have precise ears, man Though it didn't disturb me how it sounded but this way it is even better. thanks for that

these are some chords I did with Surge and then FabFilter Simplon is what makes these weird distorted stuttered rhythmic echoes. Then it goes to H-Delay.

Hey bro ..
Can agree with Upavas about the mix (Hard mix !) , Theres places you can't hear nothing , The story is run But the overal sound is realy bad , I can hear the kik when start And so in the end , All whats happen after the first break is out of control - High sounds get wild When down sounds are deprived and disappear . Imo taking a 'Whu Whu' sound bring him some volume and call it bass , Well .. I dont know , Imo this 'Whu Whu' envelope is killing the all track , M8 .. This is realy hard listening to it 08:42 Minute When nothing change down there (Note or so/ different rhythm) So i could't realy listen to the track or concentrate , This kind of bass (When this is not a real bass - Was taking me out of it) Try eq it , Change it or what ever friend Could/Will be better , (Now its hiding the all story inside) .
Keep the good work

This ^^
And also:
Great story!
The lead that kicks in towards the middle of the track is simply TOO loud, seriouly, it muffles everything else and I had to lower the volume cause it was hurting my ear... (I'm on headphones).
