It's pretty hard to offer feedback without something to critique. Could you link it again?

Not bad, I think you did a decent job recreating the melody and timing. I think the synths could use some work, the percussion is decent but lacks some variation. Overall not bad, just keep writing more songs and you'll improve exponentially.

When it comes to electronic theory, perhaps some of our other members can offer better feedback.
