Getting further with it, added more perc, compressed more, added more low end on the kick and got to the breakdown
Let me know what you guys think, open to improvements

Needs some kind of big drum sample to get it going.
It's just a bit long and mellow, imo. But not mellow enough to be relaxing.

Could you explain more? What do you mean by big drum sample? I already have a kick in there, do you mean more percussion?

not sure on the bit at 1:30. really builds up then just flattens out again. as adio says needs a big drum sample in there.
other than that its pretty good.

Id love to know what you both mean by drum samples, do you mean some sort of off beat clap? Are you getting the impression it needs to sound bigger when it kicks in?

yes. i think the change at 1:30 sounded like it should have had a harder hitting bass/drum sound to it. just my opinion tho. maybe its not what you were trying to achieve. but the build up from 1:10 to 1:30 really suggested it was going to be bigger sounding.
