One thing that immediately strikes me, personally, is that the sub and the pad feel very unsynched in a bad way in the intro. Or are clashing somehow. I'd either synch them up or use a third element to link them together. They feel very "on top of each other" if that makes sense. I'd be interested to see how the percussion is going to play along with the beat and the jerky-ness of the track (I'm neutral on the "broken" feel of the track atm).

I would say have what is already there as a first section, then bring gradually bring in several more percussion lines and really build up the groove. This should prevent the ''broken feel'' that fragments mentions becoming over emphasised and will satisfy the listneners expectations..

once the percussion is down, bring in a melody to go over the over the top, then go to a break down and then a drop back into the first section. Production wise its pretty good, nothing seemed awry
