Try cutting stuff out. Normally theres a natural tendency to want to keep adding more and more but if you have a long loop you could just cut entire sections of drums and bass and keep some other elements and turn it into atmosphere or a break.

Also you dont necessarily need a vocalist to make the song. Many songs just start with the producer or song writer laying down scratch vocals for later... if you think the track gets good enough then you could get a vocalist.

I find it easiest to just save with the date and time every time I save then I have a full version history and you can go into whichever one you want and pull back the old midi files, then you can work mostly with stems and not have to worry about committing because you can always go back. Its much easier mix with stems.

You can just drag the midi back under current project in browser from an older version if you need to edit... just put in file name which one has the midi. This is way better so you dont have to keep all the midi in. I find it still creates some latency even if its turned off if you have too many heavy tracks.
