Not sure what you meant by "added a couple of trumpets".

An exciting mix! That being said, it feels a little high end heavy, I'd guess there's a multi band compressor either on the drum bus or the master bus. I kinda like what it does, but the output on the upper band could be lowered a bit? Completely possible that I'm wrong about this. : )

A bit more oomph on the bass and kick drum would be welcomed too. Actually I ended up listening to your mix with a gentle +2 dB low shelf starting around the 500 Hz zone, made it all more balanced for me.

Other things I noticed:

. the reverb in the verses are too long for the vocalist, feels to me she's a little drowned in it;

. I don't really like the trumpet with all that shimmer, but I'm aware it could be desirable in some aesthetics.

. not a problem, per se, but I think it's funny that Dave's guitar is on one side while his voice is on the other side, makes me think about an elastic superhero;


That's what stroke me. Good mixing, Nanoweb!
