Re: 4 on the floor + a driving bassline
My favorite iteration of the bass line is the one that comes in around 7:00. I'm also a fan of the melodic xylophone-like stuff that you throw in around 12:00.
As for suggestions, I'd like to hear more sub-bass. The mid-range fuzz on the bass is great too, but I want to feel that Moog as it breaks my freaking headphones. Maybe you could add in more sub-bass from the Moog and have the kick sit in the slightly higher frequencies.
I also think this track works best at is "busiest" moments. The sparser parts weren't doing it for me, but I did like it when it got some more bang around 8:00. The break that starts around 9:00 is also great.
All in all, nice work and keep it up.

Re: 4 on the floor + a driving bassline
Thanks for listening all the way through, the tips, and comments.
I'll work on getting the bass to move more in the deepend. I like the busiest moments too.
It's all mixed on the fly, I have to get more comfortable with letting it ride when the mix gets full. It's hard to think with that much stimulation. I guess the key is to be skilled enough to not have to think, to just know.
