Wrong section to post in.
It seems to me the bass is in the wrong key -> try lowering it 5 semitones, from La to Mi.
Secondly, the track isn't doing anything, it's just booming there with some sounds all blended together in the background. Try mixing it better, so some sounds come out on some bars and other sounds come out on other bars
Percussion needs a lot of work and fullness: try adding some saturation on the main drum track (but don't overdue it!)
In my personal taste, play around with the bass, lots of people like that. Show us something new, something fun. Give us a reason to be listening to your song, to your groove, and something to catch our attention throughout the tune
Final remark, It seems you forgot about silence: the music is more about the silence between the notes than the notes themselves. Try to open your track more, make notes a little sorter in the bass, put some fills in, and let the track breath. Not it sounds too muffled and blurred, where everything is shoving everything else.

i'm sorry for the post.i thought this is the right section,i'll pay more attention next time.
second,thank you knocz for feedback, those arguments are very constructive , now i realise that my track doesn't breathe at all . i'll try to work better next time to obtain that sound you're talking about

Id make the bass lower at the end of the bar, increase speed of new sounds coming in and use clearer samples. have a breakdown, stagger the beats a little, pan the opposite direction sometimes with the bass and introduce a minor melodic element/drum to allow the groove to come through more.

Also the bass seems panned. You don't want this.. unless it is just the highs of the bass doing this. But most of the time it is unwanted.
