I listen to it on wifi speakers so I didn't get to hear much bass. Its a cool vibe but you could definitely improve on it. Add some variation to the chord progression and maybe layer down some melodies. Also, I think you can find a punchier kick.

Yea man, was getting into that, when it dropped I thought this mix sounds odd, the way everything sounded together. But then it quickly grew on me, nice work so far.

Sounds solid so far, I like the breaks in the mix, maybe compress the kick a bit more ;)

nice chords/melody.

the beat is also very fitting. your style reminds me a lot of jafu/b9.

good work!

bass its too wide imo, feels weird in my ears, make it mono

and is it just me or is the kick way over to the left?
