Very nice for your first track! could definitely see some one rap to this.
Yep. I agree with DJ FlyingPankakez, this definitely needs a singer. :D

Though the sound effect at the start up is good, I'm not a fan of how this track starts up eg. 0 secs to 11 secs.
But then again, everyone has their own tastes in startups. :)

Maybe adding in some more melodies, and a few sound effects, especially during the silenced parts, could make
this track, sound more exciting, full and complete.

Yes fine track, but just as said already, it need either a vocal artist, or you could work with a edgy/ squiky saw, and make a good lead over it.
Thank you all so much :D I've been trying to find a saw plug in but have had no luck. What would be your recommendation to acquiring that sound? Thanks again!

There is already several saw-presets in the default collections.

Use the search-function in the preset-browser,
and find them all
and use my tutorial on how to improve default presets:

and tweak one of the presets.
Other than those, I really recommend you to get Synth1

and follow our instructions

I like it.

The pacing of the track is nice and the spacey phasy sounds in the back give it a natural feel.
It's pretty good for your first track!
