 if it's reasonably good, then my method is working

I think it a good idea to start with boosting highmids to gain the right power and detailed info as you have done here, the lowend has suffered from this though, its getting a bit masked to my ears since all attention is drawn to these frequencies, so either cutting a bit of those or equing in some lowend would be good for the whole mix/master i think. There is really little sub info in the kick for example.

thanks for the advice,

I don't have good headphones for bass, but let me tell you, I took 1khz off almost all the instruments and then increased the dbs and cut 3khz on vocals to make way for the high mids of the instruments.
