Hello. From starting with just making a kick bass pattern a year ago, i seem to have come a long way. Thanks to everyone in this forum for all the knowledge shared ..especially overdream, colin ood, wizack twizack, willsanquill, minddoctors and many more.
Would like to hear your comments and criticism of my track which is on soundcloud(link at the top). thanks.

Wrong section. Right track
That's nice, lots of weird stuff going on, and that's great! At any point of time something is happening and going somewhere.
I dunno if it's my setup, but it could have a little bit more sub-bass.
I feel you could glitch up the drum pattern.. it goes tic tic tic throughout the tune, it could build up (titititititi) and slow down, treat each element like you do to your kick
Just about every lead is glitchy and in the front, probably some long notes or pads with delays going on in the back, acting as a counterpart for the main sounds

I feel very honored to have my name mentioned alongside such great artists and nice people
Glad you got some inspiration here, isratrance is awesome if you spend the time reading and disregard all the bullshit
Cool track man, had me bouncing around my studio. I will echo what knocz said about the mix, some of the leads are a bit up front and the bass could use a bit more presence in the mix.
This is a personal preference thing but from a dancer's POV I wanted some the glitchy break sections to be not as long. like the one at 2.15-2.22, considering you have another one at 2.28-2.31.
and the one at 4.19-4.25
Either that or have an element start a couple bars before the break and last through the break so there's more continuity
I feel like the track could also benefit from some more 'in the background' sounds - some granular textures maybe or some drones swooping around

Thanks guys. I've started work on my second track. will share on the same thread "Do not try and bend the spoon. That's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth."

Keep it up.
