Hi guys I am very new to music production and this is my first song. Please give some suggestions about the plugins and instruments i should use. The music that I like is fairly aggressive EDM and Electro House.
This is my song:

You're welcome!
Very good first track.
However, the rise in introduction announces something quite powerful, but what happens at 00m15s lacks intensity. I would say the same at 01m30, the expected intensity is absent. Otherwise, your transitions between the different parts are well worked.

Yop,
Highly danceable riddim, and not fade-out at the end!
D.Ipsum is right: at these 2 moments, the dancer expects a kind of climax, and there is none. The 2 snare hits at 1:29 could be much louder, for example.

As someone else said, I like the arrangement and melody. However, I think some stereo sweeping pads are needed in some parts that sound a bit dry, and the snare needs some compression.
How much experience do you have mixing? Are you just new to LMMS or are you new to using computer software in general to produce songs? If it's the latter I could give you some quick tips for mixing snares that make them sound 10x punchier without overpowering the rest of the mix.

Well, I'm impressed!
This is certainly much better than what I've done. How much experience do you have with music production? Have you used other DAWs before?

Nice song.
1:30 is the element I wouldn't mind if You add something there.
Simple saw, choir wave, then it would have more power.
And one more thing,
Welcome in our comunity.
