your drums are good, Im glad you got that down but you're too generous with your Tunage. The melodies don't stop all throughout so you don't let listeners anticipate when things will come together next. Be more open and sparse with your melody- the same way you are with the drums- have it syncronise and change it up often. Most importantly- the bass- it's lacking. Don't be afraid to give more bass- its the distinguishing element of dubstep.

Large ups on the feedback will definitely keep that in mind! I don't normally make melodic music so the advice is helpful ;) I have the sub -5db in that bounce accidentally, forgot to move it back (I had been producing late at night) so that should resolve the bass.

Backing melody is overly repetitive.
It could drop off of the panned/gated effect and instead drift into a pad and again back into a rhythmic feel.
I do like how you vary it later but imo it can still change more.
Even consider dropping it out and instead using the same synth as a stab.
