First of all, I think you have a fantastic sound. Space sounds just suitable for this genre. Solo instrument balances are fine to my ears. Sound stage feels correct.
But some points should be fixed:
- That kick comes out really too BOOMY, you probably used huge amount of parallel compression.
- Snare is maybe a bit too loud. I also made snare pretty loud (or too loud), but in this case we hear all the chost notes too clearly. They are not chosts any more.
- Bass-drums balance is not optimal yet. Listen for the moment by soloing them and you’ll notice that the bass player is playing behind the back of drummer. Try to find a position where they’re are side by side and create the groove together. But after you’ve fixed that kick.
