Listening now...
IMO:
The beginning sounds a bit/ very distorted...could be my speakers...or the way it's recorded?
Not too keep on the samples (Sorry if they aren't samples but your own work.)
There is no real build up leading to the 2 min mark...should there be? A single, long, high,mid or low-pitched note would go down well there.
It could do with being a bit 'smooter' so that it flows more instead of "Noise in, noise out" so-to-speak. A bit more 'fuller too'...The more you work on it, the easier it will be for you to do the above,
All in all, a very good effort for a beginner.
But, all the above could be utter crap because the speakers I'm using aren't the best here...but from what I've heard...the above stays. [:P]
Good effort. Keep working.

Thanks for the feedback :)
Why do you think it´s samples? It´s not :)
I know it´s not that smooth. will work on that :)
Will also think about the build up there. Understand what you mean.

Not too bad of an effort there dude for a first tune.
Your bass riff could perhaps do with being taken down an octave and the overall volume on that channel being turned down a bit because it tends to swarf your kick and gives the impression that there's too much going on in the track.
Your synth behind the bass sound is a good :D and I like the intro, a little repetitive but a good result for a first tune dude!
I'm just getting into production myself so I know how annoying it is to get that extra 'umph' that the pro's get :D

Wasn't too sure if it was samples or not, but when I was starting (Still do sometimes), I used samples.
What I'd done was keep 'playing' around with the samples until I got used to the main layout of a track-then take it from there.
Well done on working with your own samples, I've done a few but I'm embarrased to put them up haha, never had the proper software for that...until recently.
Just take the levels on the bass down a notch and it'll be a lot better.
Looking forward to hearing more of your work.

Interesting ideas.
It's in time and in tune with itself, which is good, and agree with what's already been said.
The nightmare begins, 'Sound Engineering'.
Each sound needs it's own 'space' in the stereo and frequency fields so that they don't get in each others way....
....if that's any help.

Sounds like the special exclusive super duper remix was finally completed :P doesn't sound to bad. Like the bassline :) but at times it seems a little loud.
also the kick is a little weak too....i can hardly hear it

It does sound very sampled, i think this is because you need to add 'air' to a few things at least using reverberation as certain parts sound a bit dry if you know what I mean. You have the right idea but you need to play with your EQ and understand where to tweak your frequency settings. A good audio program will help with this like Sony Sound Forge where you can remove DC Offset, normalise your mix and monitor peak db(0) & clipping. Then you can master the whole thing. This is the tricky part but if you read a few tutorials/guides on mastering you will pick it up as you go along.
As said the track is distorted in places so its clipping pretty bad which means its peaking normal sound levels i.e 0db so it will sound worse the louder your turn it up. What software and synths are you using?
What your track really needs work on is the 'build-up/breakdown' technique.
Not bad for first attempt :)
