Ole internet!

So I made a whole bunch of tracks recently, and decided to release my favorite of these. I called it "My Best" because, well, I like it the most out of anything I've done. If anybody out there is interested in listening and telling me how I can raise my own personal bar, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks folks!

Oh Yeah!! This is very good. :D
And I like what I hear, because it sounds like it has alot of life and energy in it. :D

I noticed that from 1:30 secs to 2:13 secs, the volume (especially on the melody) abruptly dips.
I don't know if you deliberately did that, in order to try and make volume space, for the other synth sound
to come in during that time.
But if it was, then fading out the volume early, by using automation etc, would help make
the volume of the synth sound, ease down better, and transition into the next part of the track nicely.

And I agree, this might be one of your best tracks yet. Good work. :D

Hey, thanks a bunch! Yeah, I was trying to transition to a breakdown, but it was probably a bit more jolting than anything else. I'm still trying to figure out how to go from drop to breakdown well.

At any rate, thanks for taking the time!
