I love the offbeat emphasis, instantly giving energy to the piece that makes it feel like a city rather than something smaller like a village. The chippy instruments and drums feel really smooth and I can’t help but bob my head along. You are able to do so much and add in interest with a simple 2 chord vamp, something that I think is pretty commonly done in town music when you want to find a balance between getting straight to the meat of the music while not sounding like a short idea that is repeated to exhaustion. I like how you kept the drum beat slower and let the melody carry the momentum. Overall, great work and thank you for sharing!

Thank you!
I've noticed that the 2 chord progression does get a bit repetitive after a few listens; I did actually try some other mid-sections but they didn't really fit with the overall track. Overall for a first jam I think that this was a great learning experience, and I appreciate all of the comments that help me to improve (via what people enjoyed and didn't).
Thanks again for the analysis, a second pair of ears always helps!
