This is clean as fuck. Impressive! I hate when a song starts off sounding good but then doesn't go anywhere and that's totally not the case with this. You managed to really add in a good amount of variety and drama!

I like the progression.
Overall I feel this is a successful track, a lot of it sounds good and I really like the bass. However, I feel that the leads just aren't strong enough. Especially on higher octaves, they're just too quiet. It takes a lot out of what could otherwise be a powerful sounding chorus.
I also think that your hats are too loud, and too deep. They need more treble and they sound a little muffled (at least, the open one does. The closed one sounds okay.)
I think this song works very well in terms of progression, though. Most mainstream dance/trance songs are repetitive as hell and seem to go over the same thing again and again, but you managed to keep this one interesting enough to hold my attention.
9/10
THIS SHUOLD BE IN A FREAKING GAME BECAUSE THIS SONG IS JUST EPICCCCCC!!!!!!!!!!!!
That hi-hat should sound a little bit "wet" in my opinion. It stands out a bit too much, very dry and like a walnut...if that makes sense. It has a nice tone/sound to it though, nicely orthodox. I'm a fan of big sounding kicks, I'm sure this would rumble any club it gets played at.
While it may have a different EQ/Mastering style to it, I totally loved it. The way it was compressed and EQ'd sounded awesome to me, and I bet this would do justice to any number of subwoofers. Great work!
