Have a preview of my new and totally amazing club banger!

Went a little overboard on the thread title there, but I had to get you guys attention somehow. Anyway, this is what I've been working on lately, it's more of a melodic House/Dance track à la Hardwell. Spent a lot of time on this one, pretty happy with it as of now. All done in Ableton!

I even made a little artwork:

I'm having my finals next week, hence the title.
Comments & critiques are welcome as always!

Listen to the whole thing though, best part's near the end!
Nice work indeed! I do have a criticism...
I thought the end bit was actually the weakest part! You had a great build up but then the drop is an empty space with the reverb tailing off and that sounds a bit wrong to me. Going into the last section with the bassline thing, I would have liked to hear something more present, inyerface or intense. After the awesome buildup it just seems to be too much like a quiet intro section when it feels like it should be a face melting chorus!
That's the only thing that stood out to me though, shit hot track otherwise!
Wow, I thought the whole thing was incredible.
Great job, I'll be suprised if you aren't topping beatport charts any time soon
It's well done but it is pretty much a carbon copy of Hardwell - Cobra.
I mean being inspired is okay but this has a similar arrangement too and the synths and mixing and stuff.
Mixing is decent though but the drop is very empty and lifeless. Add some stuff

Listen to Hardwell's 'Spaceman'. It sounds a lot more like that actually.
I kind of wanted to recreate that anti-climax thing with only a kick and a raw synth like you hear in many of Hardwell's tracks. Like an element of surprise or something. But maybe it was a bit too much of an anti-climax. Maybe I should add some more stuff to it, I'll see what I can do!
Thanks for the nice comments guys!
Love it!
the fuck is a club banger sounds p gross
Basically, the bad points are this:
1. Sounds like it's clipping a bit in the intro but that may just be me.
2. There's subtle clicks after the very first portion of the intro that sounds like you were doing an effect. It came out sounding not-so-great and again sounded like clipping.
3. The anti-climax made me go, "WHAT?!" I was so amped up and ready to burst through my wall dancing. I think the anti-climax would work if you eased up on the "anti" portion of it. Fortunately, I think it would work if you made the bass sound more aggressive. I figure a fuzz distortion would do it.
The good points are this:
1. Everything else.
I seriously want this done. I love it. Finish it.
