My dubstep remix of Imogen Heap's 'Hide and Seek'. Any advice on improvements are very welcome :) Feel free to comment, hope you enjoy :)
EDIT: Changed lots of stuff (look at below comments!)
EDIT 2: MEssed up some hihats on previous edit.
not to seem weird or anything lol, but it's pretty freakin awesome ;)

great drop variation/melody. sounds pretty awesome, love the bridge @ 1.40 on :) and the triplet-y drop @ 2.02 ... oh babyy

Thanks for the feedback Pyrophillia :) I totally agree about that wobble at the beginning, it does get rather tedious. Also I think that the mixing + EQing of the overall track is a bit off. I will have to update at some stage :) And thanks for commenting on that pause, I thought that was quite cool too :D

After that the only improvements that I could think of would be very minor mixing tweeks and generally organising the synths a little better (there's a lot there and it is often difficult to see where the cables lead to and what effects apply to what instrument - I would suggest creating some space and naming the effects). Really good song though, especially the triplet section at the end.

Personally, I found that to was a little bland with little instrumental variety (I liked the pause at though; it really caught me out). I liked the end more, but I feel that immediately after the vibrant, wide vowel bass the standard wobble sounds a little flat and central - possibly some unisono, chorus, panning mods or stereo enhancing could sort this out. I think that the "bleepy" synth could do with a little more high end sizzle (possibly just add an EQ or some extra oscillators).
Thanks guys :) @ZeDgEr, that sounds like a good idea to me, I'll add some sub when I update :)

Thanks Pilgrim, I like the triplet-y bit too :) And as for the pointers, they should be very useful :) I'll try to implement them within the next few days :)

A few pointers, since you asked:
1) Snare needs a bit of EQing. Boost it at around 200-250hz for a bit more punch
2) Vocals and offbeat chords maybe need a bit of reverb and delay to make them more interesting.
3) A bit of variation in the hihats perhaps? Different pitches and timbres make them more interesting.
4) Bit of bass clashing when your yoy comes in, ()
5) Couple of empty gaps that need filling (-)
Overall, a great track though :) Hope this comment doesn't sound too negative :P
