You need to get proper way of earing what you produce to make your mixes not sound muddy
get some proper room and monitors and you will increase the mix quality
about your music, you seem to have hability to compose music, but you are still very far from being solid...
keep practicing...
you are like many others in very early stage of evolution, but you might become a good producer in the next 5/6 years with more experience.... |

Nice ideas, just keep it up and do what you like and what you think sounds good.. If you like it, there's bound to be more people like you out there.
Your mix can be improved and being able to properly hear what you are doing can really help, but it won't magically make you mixes better: you still need to learn techniques and how to apply them.
First track, the kick has a lot of sub bass. On both track the kick and bass aren't glued to each other and in the second the result is the kick is way too high (you don't necessarily need to lower the kick, a well tuned compressor on the kick + bass buss can raise the low parts, effectively turning up your bass). You should also do more automations, making your sounds go from point A to point B, now they just stay in point A.
Nevertheless, keep at it, and again, just do what you think sounds awesome  Your opinion is the only that matters.

I think your weaknesses are arrangement and mixing at the moment, which can take some time to learn. Your ideas and sounds sounds cool and interesting, so keep breeding them.
Here is one tip; use more different octaves and timbres to sounds so they dont 'eat' one another that much, and keep practising kick and bass part. You really need to make it run more nicely to give the whole track more well-balanced feeling. Lowend part is very important to get right. Snappy, deep and tight.
And normal mistake is to give bass too much room, i try to keep kick around -8 to -12 and bass around -10 to -14 when mixing, depending the dynamics of the sound. Then final mix will hit -6 to -4, which is leaving some room for mastering still.
