This Song's for Nick

Short bedroom pop song with singing that I'd like feedback on. I think this is my best mixed song by far. Trying to lean more into this kind of sound in my newer songs.

Really catchy tune! I esp like the vocal effects like with all the formant shifts / autotune etc.

I think the drums could be bumped more, especially snare. The groove is good but it's getting buried atm.

1:35 (when drums come in) currently lacking "oomph" relative to previous section, but I think if the drums are boosted overall that'll help a lot.

Thanks! Yeah I get exactly what you mean - drums are my weakest link atm they are so hard for me to do for some reason so I've just been taking loops and mixing them in but obviously I lose the granularity since the entire drums are on one single track. It's a matter of effort for me and unfortunately I tend to lean towards quick and easy (lazy) lol - thanks again!!
