Another very different vision here, and it's interesting to hear a much meatier drums/bass combination, and the imaginative effects tickle my ear very nicely! You've also managed to keep the vocal nicely centre-stage, although I'd have liked a bit more of a sense of blend for it in the choruses, as well as maybe a bit more obvious echo to hint at a larger space -- maybe that's just me, though! 
It's good to hear you making efforts on behalf of the long-term dynamics, by changing your settings to adapt to different sections, but some of the transitions do feel a touch too abrupt, which rather gives the game away. I'm thinking particularly of the bit that sounds almost like a filter-sweepdown at 1:23 -- sounds almost like a mistake, but I'm not sure it is.
The vocal break has a lovely soft, feathery sound to those BVs. How did you get that? It's a joy! The backing vocal in the second verse is also nice too, although maybe a touch too far upfront -- it seems to distract slighty too much from the lead for me.
Thanks for letting us hear that one! Hope my comments are some use.
