I liked this song, but I felt the supplied drum tracks were quite limiting, so I re-cut a lot of them on my Yamaha piano so I could mess around with them more. I think I was able to get more punch out of the whole mix that way.
I ran the bass track through two different amp modelers with some overdrive and panned to either side to give it some air. This, oddly enough, cleaned up the bass and allowed more "room" for the rest of the track, IMO. The bass by itself I felt was rather muddy.
I played around with the backing vocals quite a bit to get them where I wanted. I hope you like it. I do tend to mix vocals down into the mix. The radio voice is intentionally buried - to make you listen more closely. Constructive criticism is welcome.
