This is definitely unlike anything I have ever made but I have to say, I had a blast making it. If I were to receive feedback here, I would mostly be curious about the mix. Of course you guys are welcome to weigh in on other topics, but that has been my biggest focus lately. Where could I have done more/better?

Hope your ears enjoy!

Genre: glitch hop? future something? I don't know either.

I like it! Nice and punchy but still sounds musical. I like the toms after the drop and the couple of glitchy parts and panning effects especially.

Mixing: the claps get lost sometimes in the mix at the beginning - especially around 1:30 - after the drop they sound way better because there is a kick (or something low end) layered on them. The piano-ish chords at the beginning could stand out a bit better at :30 when the arps start - maybe bring in more high end frequencies on those?

I get a little tired of the extreme sidechaining after the drop but that's probably a deliberate style choice.

Nicely done!
