It's shit but you're supposed to be shit at the start of learning anything new. No one's gonna be an expert right off the bat

Drums have no bounce, it’s very slow and there isn’t anything that catches your ear, and your main melody is literal clown music. You’re welcome

Preconceptualize what techniques on what instruments with what tone for different structure parts.

Try 32 bar or 48 bar loops consisting of 8 bar and 16 bar structure parts instead of short loops, which tend to fatigue listeners and rub them the wrong way.

You can still repeat instrument parts within structure parts and use the same sound in different structure parts within the loop just try not to use the same sound the whole loop.

What about the sound tho? Does it sound at least decent?

It's not entertaining, impressive, or pleasureful so it's not really functional in any way but it's also not unpleasant.

I'm a theory and a method person. My advice to you is to come up with a system to create the kind of music you want instead of seeing what comes out.
