ARGH!$%#
Hello everyone ._.
The endless working with the kick and bass is tearing me down soon. It needs so way much more power and oomph..
I just cant figure how to make it that way, please tell me what i need to do if you know
DAW is reason, and Thor is the synth, it should be capable of making at least a decent fullon sound.

I said I like it dirty, not muddy.

Hey man. I am a beginner myself so i can't give you technical advice, but i think you shouldn't focus too much on the bass. It sounds ok.. And if you work on all the other stuff, and finish tracks, the bass will become better eventually i guess..

The bass could be ok, altough I find it lacks some warmth.
The kick is not good, you definetly have to work on that one.
Also, I am not a moderator, but I believe you should not post this here dude.
This section is dedicated to posting almost finished songs/ parts of songs and ask for feedback, not ask for how to make a kick/bass loop..
Also may I give another advice. If you are a beginner and don't have too much knowledge in electronic music, I believe you should not use Reason. It is very powerful but more complex than other DAWs like Cubase or FL Studio.
And it doesn't support VST which is a big pain for producing Trance music !!

I like the loop, i like the bassline notes you chose. If it were me i would maybe add some more low freq to the kick and bass line to give it more drive, but watch out for low end "muddyness" ,i like to cutoff the kick higher than the bass and have the bassline cutoff lower, gives it more of a groove especially with the bass notes you got going on there.
peace.

Find (or create) a better kick. The bass is not to bad, maybe play a bit with the release...

Okay, so BASSically, i just made a bass with Logic's ES1 just to try it, and i made the most powerful bass i have ever made, in just about an hour or so. I decided not to use it tho since i dont know the DAW. But now i know where to make my future tracks, dam so much better.
Anyway, here it is, with some boosted lows, a new kick sample and a slightly different amount of distortion
in context.

God.. Soundcloud messed up my stuff with all their errors and stuff. Here is a re-Upload of the whole song.
Great way to hear the whole bassline in context anyway
Also dont hold anything back, if there is something odd, or a way you know about to make this better just tell me please
Also found a way to sample a reverse kick, love the sound~
