Hi, I think you have several good ideas in there. Good bass and leads. My only crtiticism would be about the drums. In my opinion, they need more prominence.

That is completely bonkers! I like it. Agree with purplegreenredblew about the drums.
Others may have different thoughts, but to make them more prominent you could try:
- Higher quality samples (if they aren't already). I'm am new on here, so I am not sure how people feel about advocating particular samples over others. But that is key in my opinion.
- EQ boost to where bits of the drums that you want to stand out.
- EQ cut to other elements that aren't drums at that frequency
- Layering snares.

thanks for the reply mrpies, honestly the drums are just from a vengeance pack layered with a subby sidechained kick, but a little EQ may do the trick in this case.

ah ok - I am preaching to the choir in that case. Vengeance is what I (and most others I am sure) use.
Yeah, maybe making room for the drum with Eq will help, would love to hear other peoples thoughts though.
