2nd mix is much better balanced frequency wise for me. I agree that the lows and upper mids are more balanced now. Not sure if the kick and snare are kind of vying for the same dynamic space as the vocal and could be brought back a hair - as the vocal is quite punchy/dynamic too in this track. I suspect that might just be me though!
Anyway, mix 2 much better for me than mix 1 - there was just something about that mix seemed to be bothering me a bit hence digging in to it a bit.
Cheers!

Mikej......thanks for the additional feedback....much appreciated. It's funny you mentioned the snare and kick. I usually have the snare a bit too much in the background and so now I put too up front....lol. I always like a loud kick with plenty of "beater." Only this time I didn't crank up the beater freq as much as I usually do. It's a running joke in here that I love that beater sound of the kick. It's at this point in the mixing process that feedback from the artist would be needed. But, since Mike S loaded up a preview of it, that preview is very loud, full, and has a lot of low end. I think that is what the artist was looking for. What's in my head is way different. Anyway, I may just go back in there and make some more changes....hopefully for the better. :-) Thanks again.
