    I like how creative this track is with the synths and kind of Arab style it has to a bit. It has the potential to be a great song but it is lacking production wise. You did a good job choosing the sounds and instruments and the vocals are also recorded pretty well. It's the balance of instruments that's letting the song down. I think you need to mix this song from scratch. Start mixing the drums first. Your drums lack punch and power. Start getting the kick and percussion to work nicely with each other and make sure they are shining. Then mix the vocals next along with the drums. I think what the vocals maybe lack is a bit of warmth and a hint of distortion to give them a bit more presence. After mixing the vocals with the drums, mix in the bass and make sure everything is working nicely with each other and that the drums do not lose their power. Then mix in the rest of the synths in the order of importance of each synth. I also think you might have an issue of using too much reverb, the song sounds kind of washed out, which maybe something that you want and I can understand that but maybe tone it down just a bit, try reducing the decay times first and if it sounds better then great, if not then reduce the actual amount of reverb applied to the different instruments.

    Like I said, I think the instruments each on their own sound good, it's the mixing and gain staging that's causing the song to lack presence and power and it sounds weak and washed out. But it's definately something I would hear on the radio.

    I'm glad you found the comments useful. It really does take alot of work to get a song sounding "pro." The best way to do it is to make sure you get things right from the start. Make sure everything is sounding good at every stage of production and mixing, so you don't get to the end of your song and then have to go back and fix things later.
