Not the best I've heard, but I normally listen to well-established artists. Having listened to a few just-started artists, I can tell you you are doing quite well considering how long ago you started. I think the main problem with the song is that it sounds fragmented, and Pachelbel's Canon in D isn't really something that goes well with fragmentation. But around halfway through when it goes full-tilt, it's awesome. Even a third of the way through it's pretty good, but the middle part is golden.

It just so happens that I've just started making music myself, and my first project just happens to be a remix of Canon in D. That's two coincidences in two days for me. Yesterday I found out that both me and LlamaSauceYup have 8 siblings. Anyways, that's off topic. Good job on the song though.

This song is so ridiculously overdone in virtually all possible musical arenas as to render even the most skilled adaptation of it pretty thoroughly derivative.

I like what you did with it, given some of the possible options for trance/houseing it up, but I think it could have benefitted a little more from the more epic sounds that trance can generate. Since Canon has always been such a minimalist sort of quartet-style piece, some bigger noise might have helped set it apart.

I know, and I agree, but the purpose for me is not to make another remix, but more to learn about making music before I make something that is completely my own.

That sounded horribly canned. But I meant it.
