New producer, looking for feedback!

Hi, I'm Alex [aka. El-Phi].
I've been producing since November 2013 so just short of 2 months at the time of writing this.
I use Logic Pro 9 - my school music department have it so its convenient + Reason looks too overwhelming for someone who knows little about sound engineering and is relatively new to this.
I seek my main inspiration from Jazz & Hip-Hop artists as well as some classical music.
I'm jut wondering if my stuff is any good/has potential.
Please be honest in any feedback and feel free to download any of my tracks! Thanks!
Here is one of my tracks if you wish to listen:

I admit I like the drum programming, at first it reminded me of something from Aaliyah. I feel like when the pad/chords came in around 0:24 or 0:25 you should've taken the bell melody away because the pad in itself carries it's weight and the bell kind of distracts from it at that point. The breakdown was cool, my only real gripe about it is the bell melody needs to be arranged better because it gets tiresome/repetitive after awhile. Like have it dip away for 4-8 bars then re-appear 4-8 bars later. Good stuff however. Cheers.

Thanks for the feedback! I was particularly proud of the drums actually!
I'll look into making a few changes as you've suggested! Thanks again though!
 
Yeah sounds pretty dope.
heaps interesting and different.
Love the grime bass
Just needs a bit of mixing

Like the other guys were saying, turning the bell down
and having it drop out a couple more times,
maybe a few times where it comes in for a second at the start of a bar

I'd also turn the hats down, bring up the bass so that it really boots
and maybe give the kick a bit more punch.
I'd even turn down the reverb on the claps, make them sharper and stand out a bit more
also give em a bit more high end.

Tidy work.
 
Thanks a million man! This is all a lot to take in! I've only been doing this for 2 months! The warm and friendly response from everyone is overwhelmingly pleasant! Thank you! Will post some progress as it comes! :)
