yeah this could have some potential given it's a work in progress. First thing i noticed, the piano was punching hard on my right ear (wearing headphones). I would try to balance it a little more and use some delay / reverb just to fill out the stereo effect. Also noticed the same on the snare on 2nd and 4th beats, went a little far to the left.
Some little reverb or echo on the pianos / synths etc. could perhaps make them fill the song even better. Be aware not to use too much, though.

As for the bass (which is important in this song :) ) you could try to fill in some more in the high end of the frequencies. Add some raw saws on top of it, just to give it a sharper presence.

The drop at around 2:34 is a bit monotone for a little while, keep in mind that the listener constantly needs something exciting to keep the song interesting. Play a little more on filtering, or maybe add some FX in there.

Also, I just want to add that I am no professional at all when it comes to music production, I just try to pick up stuff here and there and learn something from it. I'm only familiar with Propellerheads Reason software.

I hope some of this advice will help you along! :)

thanks for the feedback mate :) yeah ive just noticed myself about the piano,i used nexus 2 make it,that already has reverb and delay on it but ill can try and put a bit extra on it :) ive accidently moved the piano to right by mistake i will sort that too,your the first one to notice so thanks :). the bass in my main riff is what im finding most difficult with,ive been using massive to make it,but only made one layer,i know thats not enough,so i will take what you said and add one more layer of the raw saw you said and try that :) the drop that i did at 2.34 was very difficult to do believe it or not :) a lot of automation i did on it as its only really a baseline,the idea was to get it rapidly fast sounding and it pitch it down gradually to match the speed of the kick when it comes in,but as u said a bit of fx or filtering will make that better :) i appreacate you taking time to listen and give me constructive critism,thats all i ever want,its the only way to lear and make things better for future producing :) thanks very much fella ;)
