I tried to mix it like in seventies)
Drums:

I used overheads as a basic thing for drum kit sound. Long attack fast release compression and the second compressor with lookahead - just to soften its transients.

For kick drum i used long attack 10:1 compressor plus clip/limiter. It works like 1176 Smile)
I sent sidechains from kick to room and chamber to reduce kick drum “click” sound.

Snare drum - the same way extreme compression on the top and phase reverse to make it not so big)

Toms - light compression, lowpass.

Bass:
Medium attack, fast release, medium compression, lowcut to fit it with kickdrum and parallel distortion.

Guitar - just eq to brighten it.
Brass - panning, light compression, 150 and 4500 hz slightly bumped, saturation

Imo, to mix tracks like this one, you should keep it simple)
I REALLY LIKE IT!!! SOUNDS AWESOME!!
Thank you)
Great mix! Definitely nailed the 70's vibe imo...

sounds awesome!

Cool mix, grainy and vinyl like. If I had to say something, the cymbal hits jump out too much, they kinda take me out of the groove for a second eveytime they hit.
Thank you for the feedback
