while in this case it does sound weird, i wouldnt (personally) use that as a rule of thumb. 5/4 or 3/4 loops in a primarily 4/4 track are a joy to have imo, more variety. sometimes when doing more noise oriented tracks or more convoluted drum breaks i lose myself and completely forget how many bars the loop lasts, and i end up with inconsistent but interesting rhythms (the only rule of thumb for me is that it should sound good)
my problems were mostly with the engineering, some things sounded louder than they should
(i think the kick is slightly too loud, and the snare too quiet).
just listened to it again, i was wrong about some things. it seems like the vocal shots are a bit too loud. it sounds like the volume of the snare is slightly lower during the chorus though, is it? in the chorus it sounds a bit too quiet, but in the verse it sounds fine. idk
