The way the compression pushed up the room sound up around the drums was cool, that's mostly what I missed from the first mix. I would say try using that compressor on the drums in a parallel buss so that you retain the dynamics of the mix but still have that pushed drum sound. I'll have to take a crack at this track next!

When I mixed this I had only mixed few DAW songs and didn't have a clue about compression (still don't ) but remember spending a lot of time manually adjusting levels on the individual wave files and don't recall using any compressors except for using a multiband compressor mainly as an eq on the bass and kick.
I'm with Big Dave about just updating the post so others can see how well you have progressed and good advice using automation and multiband Dynamic eq to just tame things poking out instead of compressing the whole signal.
I like dcp's advice on parallel compression.
I will definitely use this good advice in my next remix.
Cheers
