I like the warmth of this mix, and the slightly closer and more claustrophobic presentation than my preview mix -- more dubby somehow. To my ears, though, the organ bubbles appear to be bloating the low midrange here, which generally gives the mix a slightly murky feel, and also limits your scope for bringing out the bass line for small-speaker listeners. I started rolling off the organ's low end around 500-600Hz, and while I'm not suggesting that you necessarily want your mix to sound identical to mine (it'd be a pretty boring world if everyone's mixes came out the same!), I think you could at least lose some sub-200Hz information without any serious casualties in terms of mix 'warmth'.
The vocals are quite strong on the low midrange too, which doesn't help the mix tone either, especially as you've chosen to balance them quite high in the mix. They feel a bit muffled to me, and the thick reverb tail emphasises that. In general, I think I'd probably pull back that reverb a touch, and substitute some delay for it, even if you still combine that with reverb. The density of the effect as it stands hides more of the background detail than I'd ideally like, personally.
Hope some of that makes sense!
