Learning to EQ properly -Give me your feedback

I'm an amateur producer, and I've been trying to improve the quality of my audio recently.

This track is the latest I've done. Before this one I've never did any equalizing to my songs, so I had to chose carefully each sound, sometimes it worked better than others.
By specifying the frequencies allowed for each sound, it clears the sound to a level I never thought I could reach.

So far I'm very satisfied with LMMS. I use a few free VST's for now, but I'm trying to become less dependent on them, by generating the audio I'm looking for more directly.

Here is my latest track : https://soundcloud.com/canilho/lisbon

Any feedback is welcome, or some tips to improve the quality of my sounds.
All of my latest tracks on Soundcloud were created with LMMS, no samples were used anywhere.

Welcome!

Nice track, it sounds well.

By cons (and I greet Mo Stitchi by the way), the fade for the outro is not the best solution.

No samples? I like this approach.
What synth did you use for kick and hats? Zyn?

You have a lot of track on your account. Do you use multiple DAWs?

For some mysterious reason, I can not listen to the oldest tracks (published 4 and 7 years ago).
Same thing with Techno Days and DiscoBeat... maybe a problem at Soundcloud ...

Comparing Lisbon with Relax, you seem to have made good progress with the mix. The percussions in Relax are very muffled, and the snare is hardly audible in my cheap headphones.
Thank you for the feedback.
I started to create music with Ableton, but because it is not free, I jumped to LMMS and took the time to learn how to use it.

I use a few VST's, my favorite one is Firebird, with a bunch of sounds created by the FB community. Also use Transedrive. and others I cannot remember the name right now. (maybe I will publish a post about that later and edit this one).

I have no idea why you cannot listen my oldest sounds, any way, about the quality of them, I just now discovered how to start arranging each track /sound to part of the sound spectrum (aka EQ), and to create nice Automations to change the sound.

It has been a long way, but I'm starting to get to the level I aspired to. Now it is more of a question to keep practicing with effects and sounds.
The latest LMMS seems to have new sampled instruments. I will definitely work with some of them in my next track. ;D
Can you guys check my mix? I'm not that good at it, and this sounds pretty muddy, any suggestions?

It seems the bass is too strong, wich causes some distortion on the sound. About the beat, I can totally see a rap song made out of this. Try to improve the sound quality, (or not if you are more into the low fi xD )
In the end, what really matters is that if you like your own style or not.

The kick drum and bass, need some volume balancing.
I can hear noise and clipping, from just listening to it.

But the music sounds really good. :)
