Overall, a really great track! My favorite aspects are the music-box sounding keys and the vocoder lead synth. They really give it a special flavor--a sort of North African vibe. The bass and percussion are pretty great, too. Very deep and crisp. I also like the contrast between the melody and the base, where one is constant and heavy where the other is light and floats around almost playfully.

However, I do think you overdid the compression. Looking at the waveform, there is almost no dynamic contrast happening in your song. Also, compression is so heavy on the percussion that it is distorting the bass drum. It's my opinion that compression should be used as sparingly as possible. When compression is used like this, percussion tends to lose it punch and clarity, giving the whole piece a sort of washed-out, unnatural sound. You did a much better job with dynamic clarity in your other song "Simple".

"Remember, the listener owns the volume knob. With no quiet, there can be no loud."
