I edited my post with more information. Nice track. Liked the feel, sounds, groove. I like the drum programming, but I'd either really lean into the artificial drum thing by producing it in a way that makes it clear it's an intentional part of the sound, or if it's supposed to sound "real"...

Then I adjusted everything volume wise for a proper gain staging and a solid starting point. After that I fixed tuning and timing issues of the s...
