You have a good foundation for a track, that's for sure. Even though I like some full on, I think it's a good thing that you've chosen a tempo under 140 BPM - the track seems groovier and not quite as stressful that way.
I also liked the melody in the breakdown, and generally you have some nice sounds in the track. I do miss some more atmospheric sounds though - some rises, sweeps and pads would add to the atmosphere, and I also think you should spread out the sounds in the stereo-spectrum. As it is now, it sounds very mono.

Nice production, lovely bassline, the theme at the long break should definitely come back after the snareroll imho. On the top of that a simple lead is in my ears which would drive the floor crazy :-D

Great production quality. Was it professionally mastered? This IS the sound i'm going for with my own project. If you could tell me a little more about how the track was produced, i'd find it really helpful.
Im glad to hear your opinions!
Its always great to hear what people think about your music.
First of all, id like to say that the track is finished, nothing more will happen to it. Although im working on more material.
I have listened to what you all have said and i will consider it in my music in the future.
This track is not mastered at all. I will try to find a good mastering engineer to, i think it will make the sound greater..
Im really glad you told me what you think and its great that you take the time to listen and tell me about your opinions.
About how i made the track, mostly its my experience that have made it. I have worked for so long to fix the mix, the bass, perx and so on. Although im not finished yet, one never finish!
I try to make as much as i can on my synths, i dont really like to use other peoples samples. I try to make as much original material as i can.
I use very much software as it is, i have a nord lead, sh 101, novation k and a microkorg. I dont really use any of this, maybe the nordlead for some fx. I think that most sounds can be synthesized through software. And if it sounds software, make it sound hardware with fx!
The result is what matters, not the chain of fx you used to get it.
I like it all, except that recurring noise sample that repeats throughout the track always on beat 2 and 4. Would be ok in one or even 2 sequences, but throughout is too much imo. Also, a little more rises and falls within the track would tell more of a story I guess...
I wouldn't even go for too much in the way of pads, maybe some slightly dissonant ones here and there if...
Other than that, very nice one for sure!
