Hey Juan Jose, glad you like the tunes and are becoming a fan! 
Not a bad mix all in all, but a few things got my attention:
- the loop during the verse is possibly a bit loud
- the LCR style... honestly I don't think it's ever really justified unless the sources have been done to accommodate it from the beginning (meaning having various instruments balancing the left with the right)... this is not the case here, so the mix doesn't sound the best to me on headphones.
- the horns being mono-ized and playing on the left only, they are cruelly lacking punch and presence. I would keep them stereo and put a compressor, perhaps a parallel compressor, possibly even spread them in stereo with some gentle stereo widening.
The rest sounds fine to me but I think if you forget the LCR panning and use the stereo spectrum fully (especially for the horns) it will sound better.
Keep it up!
