Hi. This is my mix for this song. Hope you enjoy it. Thanks for listening to it.

Hey man! I'm listening to the mix right now. And my first thoughts are as such:
1) Good opening! Everything feels a little disconnected though. I feel like a little more distortion on the guitars would help blend things. Better
2) The vocals sound good! They're just kinda mid heavy.
3) I like the effects you used on the weird part. It was dope!
4) The dynamics were well maintained throughout the track, which is really good!
5) I like the level of the background vocals. They're very well balanced!
6) The lead guitar is really nice! I dig the tone of it. Very well suited to the track.
Overall, the track seems to be kinda hollow from 1k to 2k, a little TOO edgy at 4k, and could possibly use more air at like 15k. A lot of this could be improved just by making the electric guitars a little more aggressive on the rhythm side. They have a lovely jangly tone, but they're really not filling out that midrange like they could. I think the lack of air is mostly the fact that the overheads are kinda low in the mix.
Good job though! I like your take on it.

I´ll try another approach from this song.
