Hi!
The kick and bass could gel together a bit better, and the same goes to all the perc.
You've got some neat sounds going on there, but something seems missing and I can't identify what.. It sounds really soft, with no tension built up and no agony, so there isn't quite a place where the energy just explodes out, even at the build up around 5:40.
It also seems like you have tons of eq containing every individual sound, like after the build to the end you have a nice lead going on but it's like it's not there, it's not in my face, it's not ripping open the sky reaching into the cosmos. You may question how to do that, but there's no simple answer, therefor me saying I don't know what's missing. The same can go for the other sections too.
For me on that last lead, since it's pretty much alone and has a nice rhythm, I'd give it more frequencies. In this case, you already shaped a nice tone, but now it's lacking, so I'd chain an exciter or distortion, with a notch filter with 2/3 of resonance and play that filter know they I just don't care.
Personal taste, nice kick bass combo for the beginning, but it could have more kBBB parts, specifically at the end.
What would also spice up the track a huge bunch would be other percussion samples, like tom rolls and stuff, adding to the dynamics and sonic pallet of the tune.

Cheers for the feedback Knocz!
I agree with you the song does require some more work in the refinement stage. Will have another go at the mixing mastering and make a new percussion as this was just a simple one to allow for a rhythmic under-structure while producing. Will put up a new version soon!
peace out!
