I like the jazzy harmonies and creative meter at the beginning. The mix is clean and well-balanced, although there’s a bit of dissonance in the texture once the quirky sitar-sounding instrument comes in at around :25. The composition also feels a bit stagnant after a while with a near-constant energy level and a lot of repetition in the core harmonic riffs. That E-piano riff in the treble range at 2:40 was a nice touch, though, and the production quality is really strong throughout. My main complaint here is that the composition needs more of a sense of ebb and flow over time to keep things interesting. It might help if you aimed to create variety in this piece in more advanced ways besides just adding and subtracting instruments over time - things like dynamic contrast, automation, filtering, etc. That said, this piece has a really unique and fun sound design, mood, and rhythmic component, and clearly loops very well too. Keep at it, Kam! :)

Can't make many comments beyond I would appreciate just a bit more variation in the breaks and sections. Other than that, nice work.
