the drums sound tiny as fuck. try layering up some samples, EQing the kick with a 1.5 db spike around 150hz. once you've got proper samples you should be able to just do some subtractive mixing (turn everything around the drums down until it gives the drum track proper breathing room.) The intro/interludy melody that keeps coming back, I really don't like, I feel the rhythm of this part is too disparate and it doesn't contribute to the groove of the track. Try adding in a snare with your kick in the interludes as well, the track loses all of its motion when that snare goes away.

I wholeheartedly concur. They're not there. Equally, there is a high pitched synth that is far too loud :o

I belive there is far too much going on my friend, some serious prioritisation is in order, so much so that I can't begin to suggest creative arrangement, orchestration and the likes. You will benefit from shredding the track to it's knees (as I am).

Hope this helps :)
