A track after a year of constant wip trashing. Yep.
Definitely need feedbacks here and there, especially on mixing in general.

Digging the ambience. 0:58 find a way to make the drums more dominant(?). 2:33 when using pizzacato keep an orchestra in mind; how many people pluck that fast, and if so, how many of them are there? I have preference for actual piano, but I doubt that other listeners would notice. Nice Work tho.

Thanks! I've been struggling how to make the drums louder but doesnt drown the other tracks, might have to look up mixing techniques (or you could tell me here lol)
And I'm not sure what do you mean by keeping an orchestra in mind.

The section that I pointed out before I made that comment is an example. It's less likely strings can pluck that fast, especially in unison.

For mixing, in general, I edit the volume of the individual tracks/instruments first before adding ANY MASTERING TOOLS. I never add compression, but that's because I do lo-fi hip-hop, so you might want to add compression to Individual Instruments. I'm not sure how compression works, but I'm pretty sure you could use Side Chain Compression, which makes one track 'duck' under the other.
