    Different Levels of Heaviness

    At :24 everything sounds super heavy, but after it drops it doesn't seem to be as heavy as the build would suggest.

    Not sure if this is gonna be an actual project I work on, I was just wondering if you guys had any tips in terms of transitions and things.

    I'm no expert on this but what I think could help:

    sweeps
    bass layering (maybe after 4 measures insert an octave up of the same melody, sidechaining to a certain degree will definitely bring out the kick)
    atmosphere pad
    after the drop vary up the 4th measure in each phrase with an unfamiliar sound
    just more sounds in general, i think if you add some more unique percussive samples the song will be more distinguishable and unique

        I have no clue on making music but this sounds really sick. You should finish it.
