Man getting the anjunabeats esque intro was ridiculously hard for me. It took so much trail and error for me to even get to this point. Of course it's not super good or anything, but I found it acceptable enough to make a full song out of it.

Well about halfway through the song though, I got kinda of lazy and sped things up. So there is definitely some polish I left out, but eh. I should probably be focusing on the more technical aspects of producing rather than trying to make full songs.

Oh yeah, one things I'm really proud about in this song is that I made all of the synths myself... Well except the percussion... And piano... But ya know.

Anyway, constructive criticism is always welcome.

The synths do sound nice besides the piano which sounds rather fake. Pretty standard trance type stuff from what I hear on here.
The almost buildup part around 2:09 was pretty cheesy in the fact that you find that in way too many electronic songs now a days but you didn't really climax after like you'd expect. Just added a new synth instead which was kind of nice but I would have liked a more defined new section there.

The piano part around 4:20 was a really nice change from the rest of the song. It was the one time I felt like the dynamic changed which was a problem for the song when doing active listening. Everything was nice as background music but I'm not sure how interested I could stay in it while just active listening.

I can't quite pinpoint it but something feels missing. The mix just doesn't sound all the way full to me. Maybe I'm just too used to a sin-type bass underneath things. Not quite sure.
