I think this mix needs some work. The main synth line is way too overpowering and its cluttering the tune. You need to try and balance all the elements in the tune a little more so they complement each other. At the moment it's just a sawtooth punching me in the face and its kind of exhausting to listen to. Try taking some high end off the synth, lowering its volume a bit and balancing it with the pad-y synth in the background. The drums are sounding good in the mix though, just try to add some more variation in the programming and perhaps some more swing.

Keep it up, great effort!

Definitely need to lower the synth volume on that main synth or like dude said take some high end off of it. Also maybe try adding some more sub bass to those grimey sounding parts on some of the drops. Interesting song though. Really not to bad at all for a second attempt you seem like a quick learner. I'd give you mastering advice but this is something I'm still working really hard on atm it's the main thing holding me back. Good luck and keep making music you got potential.

Not bad, I can't really say anything someone else hasn't already said, so the thing for me is more drum activity. They are a bit boring for me. Mixing and mastering is very tedious and requires a lot of time and focus. Just experiment with various eqs, compressors, saturators and limiters and all that fun stuff.
