I like your mix. It's well balanced and the lead vocal sits nicely but it's a little wet. Maybe back the reverb send down a bit. Carving out some of the lower mids (220hz-500hz range) to open the mix up a bit. That's where the traffic jam of mud is. If you're using EQ on your stereo bus, try taking it off and really working the upper mids on each track to gain separation. Well done
We're all just a bunch of freqs in this crazy world.

Thanks for your feedback.
It is well balanced but muddy? I don't quite get what you meant.
I agree about the reverb, it was mixed on headphones, perhaps that's why I got it wrong.
I've carved many frequencies on the mix, definitely a lot of cuts. Maybe it's not enough? I'm not sure.
I guess I'll just mix it again from scratch.
