Pretty nicely done. Stuff at the end was good with the harmony, but could have used a bit more variation in the second round of the A and B sections.
On a purely design level, the soundfont for the violin seems a little too... clean, perhaps, for the style of music? I don't know, to me it didn't have the same impact or oomph it could have with a heavier sound.

Very nice.. Monarcheon's point about a grittier violin might help.  The sound of the drums, particularly the snare, might be more effective if it was revoiced with a different sound.  It sounds somewhat out of place with the other sounds. (sounds like a heavy metal drum kit played with an Irish group.   I find a critical aspect of a piece is, after laying down the track, listening to each part. 

First of all one has to lay down several tracks, to get to the song to something we can hear.  Then it can be helpful to listen to the context of each instrument in reference to the others..  Kick is soft enough, to not get in the way, perhaps a slightly grittier. snare definitely more out there.   It's not what you played it's the sound of the snare.   This is somewhat a matter of taste..  And I don't listen to this type of music, so I might be 'off the mark'. 

The piece stands fine as it is..  just points to consider
