Things generally sound OK. I'm not a huge fan of machine drums, but it sounds appropriate for genre.

The bass is pretty loud.

I know it's just kind of a sketch, but the song really doesn't go anywhere. After about minute, there is one short vocal line. But it just kind of drags on. then some vocals way later.
 
Okay cool, do you think it's too loud generally, or just at some points? I've automated the cutoff on the bass, and it seems to get louder as the cutoff freq rises.. I can not agree more with you about the vocals, it really felt odd at a second listening. I added the vocals really late in the process, and didn't put a lot of effort into it, I just wanted to finish it. Do you have any idea on how to make it sound more interesting?
 
I think it it didn't have enough bass, and what bass you do have, there was a rumble more than a bass. Me, I would add in more kick bass at the start, maybe build it up, but put some butt into it (this is going on the dance floor), remove the rumble, I am guessing, roll off around 100 just to take off the vibration rumble and then add more 100-250 range bass. It really need to vibrate the butts. Maybe add some glitches and textures to take off the yawn factor.

Pretty cool tone. nice base, now add some flavor.

For much of the song there is no bass (guitar) at all. But at certain points, it comes in. That's what I was referring to.

And to Jon A Than - I thought the bass guitar was just too loud. I'd just turn down the fader on that track if it were me.
 
Thank you for your comments, i will do another shot at the mastering&mixing and post the result asap..
 
Have another shot at MIXING.
Forget about "mastering" until you've got your ear in & can mix.
"Mastering" is for another level of your development.
 
Ok, it sounds good to me, pleasant to listen to. My constructive criticism would be at the first step of the process, "song" structure. In my opinion it needs to have a melodic line, and more variation (too much repetition).
