From a composition perspective. (need help)

Hey guys, I need help determining whether or not my composition is fitting for this genre. I'm pretty new to it, but have experience in general engineering.

I was hoping for some feedback pertaining to the actual musical composition of this track I posted, rather than the production aspect. I have mixing/mastering control, however I haven't even begun with this track. Is this something you would listen to? I have a very dark approach to my music (I come from a metal background).

Any commentary would help, and please feel free to PM me, I love perpetual dubstep conversations. I don't have enough IRL friends who do this stuff, so someone to talk to would be nice. :)

Thank you so much guys!

^there is the link to a dropbox stream. :) (I don't think it's worthy to upload to soundcloud just yet).

Chords are nice, intro is way to short, needs to be 32bars, or if you can't force that, 16, the drop bass's are structured to an extent, but a bit too random for my taste, but ye composition wise it's not shit, keep at it :D

Cool man, appreciate it! I find that the most difficult thing for me is usually the intro actually. It's hard to get a suspenseful build up. I appreciate the constructive criticism. :D

This has been posted a few times mate but ye don't consider this as conforming to the norm, it just helps you make dj freindly tracks, and helps break down how to structure your tracks well, think of it as having all the ingredients, but not the recipe :D
