Hey everyone! I released my first electronic track a few days ago, it's the first time I use Ableton (and Reason) and I just wanted to put it out there for advice from the community.
Hope you can check out and comment!

Cool man, I like this a lot! What synths are you using? I'm not familiar with Reason, are these from it? I think the bass parts sound nice and full and the sitar-type melody thing is fun to listen to. I think the drums sound a little too digital for my ear, unless that is what you are going for (something I've been struggling with too). I think adding some reverb, or adding some more layers so that the hits don't fade out so quickly would make it sound really epic with the rest of that beat. Other things Ive seen given as advice include adding random imperfections in the timing or velocities of the notes to make it feel more natural. I like it!

I'll plus one on adding some reverb or even a touch of FM to the drum section.
really like the slicing effect in the middle too.
