well...i would suggest trying to introduce some real percussion over the computer drums ....also bring up the rythm and give it more edge....basically get whats real more to the fore and give the whole thing a more human touch.
When you can - use real instruments of course but at present this sounds pretty nice.
Some more definition to the bass would be good.
I'd also pull the snare and cymbals back a little as they stick out from the mix at present.
The flute's a bit too hot in a couple of spots - can you either automate the faders or compress it to keep it in control?
A couple of the lead guitar notes at the end of a phrase or two seem a little hesitant & might benefit from some certainty or melodic resolution.
Vocal delivery has a cool proggy feel to it.
Good work.
This is a quite unique tune... For some reason it reminds me of some early 70's FM rock... You know, the kind of spacy, jazzed out stuff that sometimes was played. OF course, I am a Jethro Tull fan, so I love the flute.
Ok... the bass needs some compression... especially at the start. That is the only thing I have to add.
BTW... I'm using a Quad 6600 oc'd to 3ghz with 4 gb of ddr2 800 ram. You are going to love your new computer!
