'Underscore' A definite improvement over my previous tracks

In the past few months, quite a lot has happened, and I've been learning more and more about chords, basslines, and harmony. I met Brian 'lil burn', an upstarting trap musician, and we had a looong discussion about basslines and drums (collab possible). Also, I finally got some decent headphones for mixing.
Now, I believe this track, 'Underscore' could be the best I've done yet, and can be a gateway towards many more new tracks!

Any feedback? If you could change one thing about the song, what would it be?

Nice harmonic work. :)

To answer your question, I think some of the percussive elements (like the crash and rim-shot) could use some treatment in terms of mixing and equing. They stick out a bit too much, I think.

Otherwise, good work on the melodies and bass lines!

It sounds really nice.
And you can hear how much you've improved, just by listening to this track.

Tip: Okay, that crash sound, needs to sound cooler. I suggest adding an echo effect to it. :)

Nice. Do you use samples? Native of LMMS? If so, you can expand your palette with sample banks available on the net.
