Hi Marc,
Thanks for your comments!
In my previous take, you will note that the lead vocal has a great amount of compression, you can hear all the breathing. Now i think i've fixed it, less EQ, less compression and some noise gate work. It sounds more natural now. I've done some bass level/eq adjustments too.
I've heard some mixes of this song and didn't like the drum sound. It seemed muffled, no punch. There are lots of mixes of this song at SoundCloud with no balance between bass and kick, you can't hear the kick... It was my intention to raise the drum sound level, along with some bright, but i do agree that the cymbals sounds harsh at some moments...
I do all my mixes just with an ATH-M50 plugged in on-board ordinary Realtek chipset. I have to learn how to deal with it's lack of quality, specially on high frequencies. Even so, i like to explore the higher frequencies, to give some "breathe". You will notice that on Francis Dunnery's "Immaculate" and BFTZ's "Black Out Betty".
Thank you again, sorry about my bad English...
