Hey DDL, I like the tight, compact low end of your mix - it suits this style of track. For my taste, the preview mix has a little too much sub and low end muddiness, especially out to the sides of the mix. You seem to have avoided that here, without neutering the low end.
One thing I noticed was that the drums overall sound a bit too "scooped", which heightens my impression of a drum-machine style sound. A little more low mids might bring more humanity/organic feeling to the drums. (I haven't seen these multi-tracks, so I'm not certain if the drums are programmed or played - my initial impression is that they are programmed).
In the intro, the synth sound (?) that comes in around 7 seconds in the right channel seems to jump out a bit too much and takes away from the textural feel of that rhythmic part somewhat.

You have a really good sense of process.. I in fact did this because in the song there is a drum machine part that comes in, to keep symmetry between the live sounding drum parts and the drum loops, the strategy is to get them to "mesh" in a working mix flow.

I believe that track has it's own panning where the sound hit the right channel, and then I stereo'ized it more leading to that result. It can be un-stereo'ized of course
I'm also not too keen on the Tom placements in sections before 1:10 - I will be editing them.
