ok listening now...
you got some things wrong with dubstep man. first of all- mixdown is too good (clean), sorry. make it worse to give it more underground feeling (let the masterbus clip slightly f.e.). musically it's much too complex, so are the drum patterns. who the hell should mix all those snares and rims?! try to take some out. Anyhow, the bassline is nice. Work on the rest and you'll have a release for sure!

Hmm the snare placement is a bit non-conformist. Not sure if I like this one.

It's not toooo bad... But it sounds a bit more like some type of house than dubstep.
I kinda like the beats.. but a bit too repetative.
It kinda reminds me of playing around with Mixman Studio back in the mid 90's

It's okay for a first tune. The intro reminded me of Omni Trio's Renegade Snares (Foul play VIP remix) where the drum line repeated itself for the first minute. The whole tune makes me think of old skool jungle crossed with dubstep.
A few points for improvement.
> The drums are too overpowering (and i'm not talking about volume or frequency,) they are being used to make up part of the main beat. The rim clicks are what i'm talking about. Drums should only aid the bass not taking center stage (in traditional dubstep)
> there are no breaks in the bass line apart from when the main breakdown occurs. Mabey if you give it more space to breathe you could add another bass line with a higher pitch.
> The jazzy synth wasn't doing it for me. If you like it keep it in, after all it's your tune. All I will say is that it is too consistent and relentless like the bass line. You need to break things up.
