1. Track 15 (Bass Sound) is really thick and sub-heavy. Try a high pass filter, cutting out everything below at least 70Hz. This will help to clean up the subend of the frequency spectrum and stop it being so cluttered and overbearing. 2. Some sort of sweep into drums at bar 15? Why not try some audio drum ramp thing? Go to Browser, and click on the computer symbol that appears:

From here, navigate to Macintosh HD -> Library -> Application support -> Logic, and then use the search bar to search for an appropriate audio sound. Perhaps a hi-hat, shaker? Now drag this audio sample onto a new audio track, and then copy as shown below:

For the last 8 hits I had to change the grid value from 16 to 32 notes:

You could then achieve a fade in by bouncing down these audio sample hits to a new audio file select all, right click, and go to bounce and merge -> bounce in place. Now open the new bounced audio file in the sample editor, and go to functions -> fade in. 3. I think all drums going to bus 13 at bar 25-26 sounds a little messy. Id send everything except your hi-hats to stereo output instead of bus 13. Id also recommend that you trim the length of the delay at bars 25-26. Press A to open your automation, and look for the track called DRUMS. At the moment youve got this:

Id go for something shorter and tidier, like this:

Or even this:

Some other bits from Mr Crozier that I still think youd be wise for thinking about and working on:

Overblown sound a little too much like midi woodwind Lots of manipulation of ideas to get as much life as possible out of chords - could you bring in shorter notes melody in the return of huge A section to tie in with the contrasting section? Further use of small snippets of seemingly random sounds (the odd ding here and swoosh there!) that come in now and again to grab attention but disappear straight away
