    I think you main working point compositionally would be adding detail to your tracks.
This ones a bit of an ambient mess, there's around 50 elements going on and quite a few of them have intentional tube distortion, this is mostly dependent on my mood at the time of composition. Kind of like old Indy m83 or Trent reznors older compositions.

    - Talking of the panning, the stereo field of your track is quite one-dimensional

I'll post a picture of the pan spread on this track which is actually massive, but again there are around 50 element and some melodies are doubled at full l and full r, but this one ended up kind of a distorted mess when it gets bigger.

    - Variation in the rhythmic hits. The best rhythmic element of your track is the hi-hat line. This is because either through delay or how you've programmed it, it's velocity is dynamic.

This particular track was more melodically than rhythmically driven, so I kept the drums pretty simple. There are a ton of tiny shifts in the melody lines throughout the track and I is not want I distract from the subtle changes.

Thanks for going through and analytically listening, feedback is always appreciated. :) any time you feel like good through any I my tracks like this I'm down for it.
