yeh nice track, all sounds fit well, powerful beats, the structure evolves nicely .. and i dig pretty much all the dark sounds used.
nice production cant think of any big issue.. perhaps the synth need a bit of warmth.

Then miss some power in the bass, the atmosphere is a bit messy in the lowmidrange.

i like the combination of elements here.. a pinch of darkness, flowing drums, and a wooble that fits nice though normally i dont dig jump-up elements. i love the atmosphere and fx in this one..
it would be nice if some of the elements are not so on the background..

bass and beats are fine as well as other sounds, the melodies get a bit tiring.

structure is nice though it seems that intro and bass part ar e in different musical keys, needs more high frequencies and punch imo.
