Rachel!

I would focus a little bit on the kick as right now it's barely audible or felt. Combat this by one or a combination of:

1. Raising the volume on the kick.
2. Applying sidechain compression to the bass, ducking when the kick hits.
3. Boosting the low end of the kick (Subtle boost).

Other than that I would encourage you to spend more time in production as this track sounds like early alpha for me.

Good luck! =)

YES focus on the track called Bounce 2 the melodies, the haunting synths and ESPECIALLY those subdued and hidden vocal washes THAT is your sound, it's beautiful, unique, not the first time Ive heard ethereal female voices BUT.... you are NOT giving your voice enough credit, push it WAY up in the front, drop the tip tap drums for a rich, sluggish industrial tuned down sample loop, something that sounds like an assembly line machine, but KEEP the synth pads, the progression, and especially the vocals, turn those up, get it in front of the mix, sing it in the shower, sing it in the car, sing it LOUD, build up your confidence because that track is going to be a HIT if you can get it up there! Get it to Jason Pettigrew, he was chief music editor at Alternative Press for 30 years and LOVED the Cocteau Twins (you music is similar, at least this track) and will probably help you by recommending the right label if you was to go that way. Engineering wise listen to this guy above Im a producer and publisher, but John Ackerman seems like he knows what he's talking about. Good luck!
