I went for the same gritty bass sound in my first mix, I think it worked well, then for some reason I ditched it in my next 2 mixes.
I think you can get a little more out of the toms in terms of punch. Try compressing them a little more than you typically would. Your snare seems a little disconnected during the chorus for some reason.
I think you could do with clearing out some of the low mids from the main Vox to clear it up a touch. There actually seems to be a bit of a low mid build in your mix (listening on some over ear audio technica ew9's so not great for critical listening), so that could clear a decent amount of my issues up,
I know this may seem like I don't like the mix, I do. Your levels are quite good with each other, and your general tones are enjoyable, i just think there's a little bit of gook (not an Asian slander)*gughk?* that needs to be cleared out.
I think you're pretty damn close to making it really sing.
Thanks for sharing.
