Well, that's a huge difference. The low end of your mix is nice and tidy.
First things first: Artist's opinion ist just an opinion. The tracks are here to get new ideas, creative input from the community, so it's meant to be absolutely torn apart. I'm still waiting for the first dubstep remix. So no, there are no restrictions to your creativity, just form the song as you want to have it.
The bass guitar. Yesss, the bass. Always a good piece of work.
I know it sounds a little contraintuitive, but the bass forms the guitar sound in a song. If you want the guitars to sound nice and thick it isn't a bad idea to blend the distorted mids and high mids of the bass with the guitars while keeping the low end's dynamics lined up with the kick, that was my experience. Often a nastily distorted bass track added parallel to the original, but high-passed above the sweet spot (70-120hz) and slightly blended in gives a huge boost in "brutality" of the guitars. My bass player would kill me for saying this, but try.
Can't wait for your next mix, keep it up!
