Yeah, I hear you but I find that most demos just suck on a sonic level. Like every thing is either really muddy, or or really weak. I agree, get some musical talent, but maybe also devote yourself to a couple pieces of gear so you can focus on your music knowing you have a good sound automatically. Then you can develop your musical sense instead of fucking with plug ins to make it sound PHAT

to me, its sounds very formulaic... very 4:4... like, I knew the bass was going to come in on the second bar...
try using some more incidental sounds... create an atmosphere... hell, even steal a hook from somewhere, use it in a different way...
The tracks above were also quite slow... very ploddy... the 4:4ish signature didn't help with this either... break things up a bit... use some reversed / tweaked / distroted bits... make it interesting!!
good luck (all constructive I hope)

I think its drums that make records.... the rhythm section... be it breakbeat, idm or whatever... its the rhythm that does it for me.
work on that, and a nice bass line (not a simple continuous bass pad sound) and some incidental stuff and your halfway there...

I urge everyone who has any interest in making music not to take anything bogala said seriously, he clearly has no idea what he's talking about.

I take that as a compliment after hearing your tracks.
