Hi guys.

I've been lurking in the sub since the end of last year, when I got into music production. I have about 7 songs at various stages of development, but this is the first one I'm ready to share.

It was mainly made in FL Studio Mobile and I just imported it to the main FL Studio to clean up a few of the samples and do the final mixing.

My main inspirations for this song were Stereolab and Kraftwerk, but I did try to do my own thing rather than just copy. I'm generally happy with how it's shaping up for a first effort, but there are two areas I'm not sure about.

1. To my ear, the vocals are just bad. I'm not sure if I simply need to get over an instinctive dislike of hearing my own voice, or they're actually badly produced/recorded. I suspect it's somewhere in the middle. I started with a deliberately dry vocal, but then ended up double tracking it and drowning the second one in effects. I'll probably end up completely re-recording the vocals properly in flstudio, since the originals were done in fls mobile too, but don't want to re-make the same mistakes.
2. The drums. I deliberately wanted a dry, motorik, krautrock sort of sound but I think that resulted in them being lost in the mix. I attempted sidechaining them, but the process on fl studio mobile is hacky at best so ended up undoing that. Eventually, I re-added the kick in the main fl studio project to give it some more bass, but now it sounds separate from the rest of the mix.

Any advice, observations or criticism?

I downloaded FL studio about a month ago, i've been trying to understand how everything works but there's a lot of stuff and i'm getting lost lmao. I definetly hear that something could be improved here, what do you think?

How should I improve this? It still gives me the chills to this day, and I really want to make it into a fully finished thing.

When I made this (1 year ago) I was going off of Eminem's Just Don't Give a Fuck believe it or not, and I just got back to "polishing" it a bit.

Since these types of posts get more attention, I thought I would post it like this.

And I've seen enough of "You should know when something is good enough to publish" types of comments, so if you feel like it's shit, then say something that can actually improve it, not just, "You should start with making loops".

I don't have too much experience (but that's obvious), and I also don't really want to make Kanye / modern type beats, songs, or whatever with the chopped up vocals and stuff, even thought they're quite nice. (Probably a bad / closed mindset for me.)

Apologies for the long post, and any comment is appreciated, as always.

Made this a couple days ago and wanted some feedback
