I kinda dislike the sound of your kick which is hitting at about 130 hz, too hollow for my linking. Maybe try a different one which is peaking a bit lower.

The high shuffle you added to the beat is too dominant and sounds lowfi/distorted. Maybe it’s fighting with the highs of your initial drumloop, with the high end of your recee, it’s overemphasis with an eq or just a low quality sample. or all of that. Either way I’d replace it, possibly with some shaker and percussive one-shots that you slightly pan in order to widen up the stereo image.

The bass is well done, twisted and dirty. Good movement.

overall good atmosphere, you just need another mixdown and eq session with a fresh pair of ears.

Having a bit of a problem with the stereo on this one. Drums are too much in the middle. Basses are a bit out of centre but not in a good way.
Tune has potential, but you need to work that stereo. The reece melodies don't work for me, it doesn't always roll like it should.
Drums aren't sitting right in the mix, they sound powerless, they need to be more punchy and loud.
The sound FX you have going on are a bit too loud and run off with all the attention as they take up all the stereo.

(not sure if you can open up the stereo field on a mono sample).
