Starts off promising enough but from 20s it's just a mess of midrange bass. The sample gets lost below the synths, and the drums are lacking any real prescence to cut through the noise.

Sounds very very messy man. Drums lack presence like stated above, and the midrange seems very harsh and kinda hard to listen to.

I really like your ideas but as people above said, the mix needs a lot of work - specifically on the drums

I think you'll be a really good producer once you get the technical stuff down, you have some cool ideas

The Production forum has some good topics on EQ. Basically think of each element of the tune as occupying a certain frequency range. If you have too many elements fighting for the same frequency, they'll clash and muddy the sound.
