The vibe is surely there! As I said, they aren't the most interesting, but they are crisp and do their job. I think only producers will notice they don't vary so much, but it's also not really a must on track like these.
On the compression thing: that's pretty alright, I've already tried it in a mix and everything sound loud enough, maybe the bass even a bit much.
And the podcast, must've been a different track than, as it was before Sunday. Congrats on the play on Rough Tempo though!
