Man, dont post a mobil link.

And feedback:
it sounds good but you should get the Leads and sounds a little higher in volume, right now the bass and the hihats are the most dominant/prominent parts.
Bass, kick and percussion is the backbone of a track, the "musical" parts should IMO be the leading parts.
Also i think this track sounds a bit crowded, more breath, would make it more artful, its too fullon all the time... But with that i dont mean you need a 2 min long break, only that you need to make different sequences, Adding some more tension. Silence between notes and sequences can make a track come alive! using delay to your advantage and reverb, Also sweeps and reversed cymbals to add tension, also a good trick when you have a part that is just bass and kick, percussion, is to have some sweeps to make it more interesting and giving a promise of something to come, adding some cool FX and preview of the sounds to come, before you introduce the full sequence
Keep it up 
And of course near field monitors from a good brand will be best, and some acoustic treating to the room if possible, that will make big change.

+1 to Freeflow, good points. Basically u need to work on your midrange more. Also u cut subs too much. Overdid the hipass. Probably a problem with your monitoring, cause mix is quite harsh.

Anyway a part from all ideas in the world, just do a better mix for now  Main parts, lower the percussion!
thats a good start, then here is all the ideas in the world
While your at it, find a more punchy snappy snare(if the one you have dont come forward when you lower the hihats), add openhat, And mix the hihats a much more lower they take way too much space in the mix..
a real good snare would give more drive and dance feeling to the track,
Bring the vocals up a bit more if you plan to keep them. But i wouldnt run the sequence so long, techno, tec tec techno thing, the part where you have delay on it, just some parts of that and skip the rest, instead add some melodic motif. The parts at 1:20, thats a good thing to build on,
But instead of completley introducing that lead that comes at 2:02 play around with it, chop it up to a motif with something else, add a second melody on it.
And do some crazy FX on the vocals, make them more psychedelic, stretch and gate some, Dip the voice in a automated reverb, like make here singing a bit slower, cut one word at time and stretch it and add delay and reverb. making the track more dreamy.
Just some ideas, good job, keep working
