Hope you are after honest feedback / opinions......

The intro synth feels quite uninspired & generic, and gets pretty old staying constant for 90 seconds or so. The bass feels nice & full which is good, and the congos seem quite well done - can almost see a person playing that pattern. Drum pattern is good, although some variation with hats or other percussive elements would be nice. You need a hook of some sort - just something to keep it engaging, by 3:30 or so I gave up on it TBH.

All that said, this song has definite potential. Just work on making it interesting & you'll be good to go.

I agree the sub bass is nice. My suggestion would be to add more tension to the drum pattern. Dubstep usually sits between 70/140 bpm with the snare at 70 but the hi hats and sometimes the bass implying a double tempo. With this track it's more firmly 70 bpm. It's cool, it just makes it more like a laid back dub track.

The drum pattern is made slightly more hectic at about 6.20 - probably diddnt get that far into listening to it, the first round of assault goe on a bit too long i think.
