I would only say It seems like it should have some more rumble, and the main cymbal (is it a crash) sounds kinda washed out, like its to far high passed or something. maybe try slamming it a bit with a nice compressor so the attack really attacks.

Thanks very much for the advice! I'll try those things and see how they sound.

First off, the kick is a bit too weak in my opinion. Snare could use a little bit more punch as well. As for the whole mix, it could be a lot tighter in terms of energy output. The idea is very good, but it just lacks that something that "punches the listener to the face, grabs them by the ankle and drags them along." Work on the drums and the bassline, get those two to work well together. That's where most of the energy comes from. Mix the sounds to work together rather than individually... Add a slight cymbal ride to the high register and you're all set.

At least that's what I'd suggest, you don't have to take my words for gold, but try some of that out. Keep up the good work!
