Let me know what you think

This is great. I would likely use this song as a background music to help me focus on something !

So, my opinion is that it could definitely be ... longer (with some variations)

The melody is not very clear to me, but it s perhaps done on purpose

Great techno track! I can see it at the start of a techno mix or at the end. Good for a Boiler Room Mix with a video made somewhere in Berlin or Amsterdam.

Cheers!

Thanks!

I wanted it to be longer, too, but I didn't know what to do with it anymore, worrying that it'll just be too repetitive. I'm aiming for 5-7 minute tracks in the future.
The melody being unclear isn't on purpose haha. I have no idea how to properly build a melody to be honest, so I just go with what feels/sounds okay with the track.

One of the best motivation song I ever heard is this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAdoSy1fjCY

I had it running forever all day long and it helped me work and focus when I was a web entrepreneur (i mean, it was running all day as soon as I have something to focus on and wanted no distraction)

anyway, i detected a kind of bass melody at 2:42, you may expand it perhaps, without loosing the nice tempo.

A techno/house is a bit repetitive and that's what we like in it. Up to you

It's just bassline there, do you mean something like having a section in which that's the focus?
Mayve I could work something out, there.

I was meaning that this bassline makes an underlying melody. It's the first time we hear it (disctinctly) and you could then take profit of that "priming of our ears" to push it above (not a bassline, later, then), like this section was an introduction of some sort.

just giving one idea, but there could be far more ideas I don't think of ; perhaps you are over with it. I saw on soundcloud that you exploring a lot

I liked it! I feel the inspiration of early 00's trance music- Paul van Dyk and Paul Oakenfold
