Lightbulb Electronic Song Critique

Hi Pit!

I've been experimenting with electronic music for awhile, mostly using FL Studio. I just finished a new song, and it would be incredibly helpful to get some feedback on it. Please let me know what you think I'm doing wrong and what (if anything) you think I'm doing right! Thanks!

Song is here: https://soundcloud.com/2xtoro/translation

No problem dude. There's a nice little group of us who make all kinds of EDM and we're all fairly knowledgeable

Loving the salsa drums at 1:33 and the synth breakdown at 2:04. Don't really like the interlude at 4:16, and whats up with the static noise from 4:14 to 58:36? Anyway, great post techical brutal djenttrancethrashwoobwoob

It's a good start, keep at it TS. I also use FL studio:]

Use more paramic EQ, and your kicks are too distorted, once you get you mixes cleaner you can work on making your compositions fuller.
