Also, when you place a SoundCloud link, remove the "s" from the https so isratrance forum can render the SC object, like this:
My feedback (at the end of a friday work-week)
The kick is a bit boomy / distorted, and I think you bass is 1 octave high, but this might be your intention. I'd lower it 1 octave to hear how it sounds
@2:01 the same loops come in, so "there comes a break, that goes back to the exact same loop" -> (Youtube: the 10 reasons why psytrance is ...)
@2:22 -> Nice note shift, but the bass looses a bit of it's power. Just look at the resulting wave form, the average height is lower (less RMS). So, a slightly different EQ for this section would make this issue go away. EQ and render each bass section to audio, so it becomes seamless.
I think you need melodies, as all your leads sound like random bits and glitches. Many high-tech stuff is riddled with melody, so it's been proven to work. Plus, you can easily hear the same synth glitches and blips over the whole tune -> try to continuously automate the synths so even if you are using the same synth and same patch over the whole tune, the sound it expels is never the same.
@5:29 -> IMHO I think the track is asking for a rolling bass - you cut the bass up with the gallope (K bbK bb) a bit, and I'd like to go back to a mental state, as the tune isn't pushing for me to hop around with the gallope.
I hear the end of the tune and don't understand what the tune wanted to do or show me. Ok, it's got a beat going on, and a bunch of sounds glitching all over the place, but what was the goal? What was the story? What is this trying to tell me? And, also important, what differs this tun from the rest - if I hear this one in between 10 other tracks, why would you want me to listen to this particular track? What makes it stand out? What is the essence of the tune?
Now: is it releasable? Well IMHO that's up to you. I've heard much lesser quality stuff released, but it's up to you to acknowledge it it's ripe or not.
Now, if some label is going to pay for the mastering and release expenses, well that's up to the guy behind it, but you can pay 50 bucks yourself if you think it's ripe for the mastering and boycott the label to get it out there.

@ knocz! Thats some really constructive feedback and what I was looking for. About the slight eq'n etc, producing on headphones (I know that cant be a reason but yeah) waiting to get monitors very soon. The glitchy random leads, I kinda like that and really that was my intention but I completely understand what your point is. All feedback taken. Thanks
@Supergroover! Thanks for the advice

you did this on headphones? pretty good i would say.. with proper monitors and room i would bet you could fix the minor eqing and levels pretty easily. Not a bad sound at all keep it up man.
