The gritty sitar sample at the beginning complements the punchy beat well. The sub-bass is scrumptious, and the production is both loud and clear. I think the sitar sounds a bit harsh at times. It might need some more careful equalizing. That said, my main complaints here include the lack of harmonic depth and the lack of dynamism in the composition. The minimalism wears on me after a while, and I would’ve liked to see some more phrasing, automation, and other forms of variation. That said, I appreciate the additional layering of synths during the second half of the piece. The strong rhythmic elements, mastering quality, fun sound design, catchiness, and dark mood are all huge pluses, though. Keep at it, Delitescentaria!
