yes, very nice indeed. I liked all of the subtle glitchy noises in the background. Very polished and clean sounding. Although the kick was a little to up front for me.

It's very easy to have your kick too up front when making minimal tracks. I've battled through it a lot. It's because it sounds too quiet in the busiest parts of the track so you bring the level up, but then it sounds to loud in the less busy parts. I find that after compressing/limiting the complete track the kick sits in a lot better because the other sounds are brought up more. I just listened to a couple of your other tunes and it seem quite as obvious. Good tunes by the way....

Wow, nice little vocal snippets in there, they sound great. the deep saw synth needs to be lifted, I'd boost some of the eq's rather than volume.

I think your kick might be a touch forward, but it's marginal. maybe just lower it a touch and then boost the overall volume/gain of the track.

the hats could so with some brightening too. I see your going for the mellow hats sitting deep in the mix, but even so they can do with a slight eq lift.

this could prolly be 2 mins shorter without any new material in there. maybe a breakdown using the vocals might be nice.

So do you just write music all day every day? Your turning out that many tunes it ain't even funny.

Sweet intro, loving that. The kick in my opinion a touch on the loud side but for me its nice to hear a really pumping kick so I like it and on your other tracks too.

Very cool deep atmosphere, the fx's are nice along with the percussion. Maybe a bit more fucking around with the bass to give it a bit more variety would freshen things up a little more.

Very nice work, keep it up.
