dude, that sounds fucking tight. Good job on the master, everything sounds nice and punchy. The track itself is amazing, your sounds are all super phat and work well together. Nice breakdown, the end is full of energy and uplifting... that theme you introduced in the breakdown was nice but I had a slight impression it didn't go anywhere, I think there may be room to expand on the ending here.
Great tune, definitely impressed!

you have little bit mess here.
do you highpass all the sounds except for bassline and kick?
i think you should work on your bassline. it's liitle bit dull. the reverb at the entrance of the bassline is too loud, it's ruin the mix and punch when the bassline comes in.
the sound that comes in at 0:35. it's sounds like the dealy is not synchornized. it's too messy.
the hihat on the kick that comes in t 0:40. i don't like it. it's very plasitic, not so punchy.
in general the mix needs some work. you should choose sounds that fit together better and use filters and eq's to give each sound it's place. you use too much delays and reverb at busy areas.
the bassline it's too fat. it's sounds like you wanted so much to have good bassline that it became unpleasent. i think also you can decrease 1-1.5 db from the bassline.

Hey Chichke! You always come with excelent reviews and critiscism, but I think this time you mixed a bit your personal likenings, I mean you are actually the first one that complains about my style of producing but anyway you did say some interesting things First of all yes I do have HP filters in EVERY channel except for kick & bass, I do that from months ago, the basseline issue idk, it sound good to me but Ill give it a few more days to see if I can notice what you said, and one of my favorite things is that big reverb at the beginning (yes I may have broken some psy-trance "rules" but sincerely I dont like following them all the time). The delay of the sound at 0:35 is obiously not synchronised at 4/8 or 8/8 or that classical times because in fact I wanted to make a mess there And well finally I definetely have a mastering issue again, is that I changed my past way of doing it and maybe I screwed it up :S So Ill work hard on it as long as Ive got no label or anyone that can do it for me.. Btw sorry if it looks like I didnt take in count the things you said but its that I really like that stuff.. anyway I still have mucho more time to grow and make my sound better.
Thanks m8!! ProtoDrive https://soundcloud.com/protodrive

Ive been listening the track and youre right, I needed to hear another track and then mine again to notice those issues, specially the bass isue, that sidechain is not well set up.. Ill just do that minor fixes and move to a new track so I dont get same mistakes again ProtoDrive https://soundcloud.com/protodrive

So now I did a different technique for mixing and mastering but in other track so you can compare, I think this new one sounds much better, hopefully im right..

nice track man !!! ... as always
crystal clear sound (no freq problems e.g.) but i think there could be a little bit more punch for bass and kick in your tracks! kick and bass sounds a bit to "flat" imho.
maybe more subbass, more booom ... you know?
but as said, very nice tunes man!!!

I think you can make better trans, I mean, more complex trans.
