The snare sound is quite cool - it's not something I would have automatically gone for, but I think it works in this context - It sounds like you used quite a bit of bottom snare in the mix - a kind of fat, relaxed low-impact snare sound - nice.
The low end of the mix is problematic however. You have a lot of sub bass happening and it seems to be distorting the master buss limiter and/or compressors/saturation. The culprit seems to be the kick drum, which has a tonne of energy from 30-70hz, and it just seems to be eating the low end whole. It kind of effects the whole groove of the song too - it seems to make it slower sounding and a bit "ploddy". I'd suggest working to slim down the kick and getting it to groove better with the bass. That should help clear up the distortion too.
Hey fHumble fHingaz
Thanks ff for having a listen, your right, I put a lot of sub on the kick and bass Guitar . Ill clean the kick up and see how that goes. I really like how your mix grooved and Id like to get this one going like that.
Thanks ff
Cheers
