I think everything here is pretty solid. The composition is as elaborate as it needs to be and allows the forest ambience and beat to carry this track. The novelty of this idea also really helps it stand out in this jam's submissions.
All of this is fine, but I like to be critical and I dare say this could be a bit bolder. For example, you have your string section, but why? It's mixed way lower than the beat and the ambience, and chords change at the same pace as your funky drone, so it's a sonic downgrade from the funky pad that you began the piece with.
You chose to put a vinyl crackle in that section, which suggests a sort of retro aesthetic and perhaps this moment is intended to be a flashback. So why not add a bit of tape / vinyl distortion to the strings so that they feel like a trip to the past too? After that, why not take it another step further? Why not mix the strings in the foreground and pan them in all directions (+ doing some other sound design stuff) to make you FEEL like you're in the middle of the string orchestra? In the middle of HISTORY, metaphorically speaking.
Sorry to go on this diatribe and you don't have to follow my direction or agree with me, but you are skilled in production and you can push your ideas further. None of what I suggested takes any more compositional or production chops than you have already demonstrated. I just want you to encourage you to take creative musical decisions and to be intentional with what you make.
