I usually write my tracks 3 - 5 minutes to suit an album rather than a dancefloor which requires longer. The reason being that I havn't yet had the opportunity to have my stuff played on the floor, but peeps have played it on their stereos, in their cars, etc.

Once the verse/chorus has cycled through a few times and I've inverted it to death, then I usually just end it on an extended chorus, either fade-out or abruptly depending on what suits the mood.

what's the lead synth by the way? the EA1 ?... sounds good track, nice sound, nice moves etc.. are you mixing drums on seperate mixer channels?... that'll help alot with the sound... mebbe you just need a small mixer with decent eq and a better pair of speakers?... what's wrong with it anyways?....sounds good to me!

I feel Yonce's pain, I acknowledged my need for monitors months ago but have a hard time getting my priorities straight.

studio doesnt necessarily equal squeaky clean. thats not what Im looking for. but I do like the ability to get it to sound that much better, AND take away the pain in the arse of mixing (sometimes its a pain. other times its tight 

no money for monitors? come on. Alesis M1s for $350?

Don't take longer to mix your track than you do to record it, if you do you're overthinking it. Do it, and move on to the next piece. That's it. Do it. Then do another.
