OK, time to rip your track appart mate. Hope you don't mind.

The track itself has some good progression specially driven by that vocal. Like the general flow of the track. The sections lead into eachother quite well.

Drums - The drums themselves flow well with a pretty cool groove, it's just the production. The high end hats are very splashy, kick and snare lack crucial "punch".

Vocals - I don't mind the vocals actually. They have a heap of processing, but still sat quite well with me. Really like some of the reversing FX, pitch shifts and the delays work well. Sometimes I felt they over powered the mix a little, but for this type of track no porblem. Cool.

Synths - The synths work well too, but again the production doesn't sit that well with me. The bass (along side the kik) has very little definition. It's hard to pick what you may have done here, but it sounds very muddy - maybe you compressed the kick hard (plus the other drums parts) with that bass all-together as one? Like I said hard to pick, but it need a bit of clarity. The other synths although a little squashed are pretty cool. I like the FX and melodies through out actually.

All up a nice track mate. Needs a bit of production work (maybe I'd tame the limiting down for the master stage too actually), but still a heap of potential!

Good to see your work up online.
