As I did my own version of this song, I have now new perspective of this song. So, I had a new listen for your excellent version.
It still sounds excellent to me (I used it as one of my references.) But some things came up to my mind:
- vocals are quite alone here. For example the rhythm guitar 1-3 dB louder could provide little low mid frequency butter around vocals. Or just try to turn vocals down 1-3 eB.
- some of the bass notes could be little louder. And some notes die too early. Transparent compressor with carefully selected settings might do the trick.
But those are just irrelevant one man's opinions when compared to the fact that you have a great sound here. Small fixes and changes here and there can easily spoil the overall sonic concept and feeling. So maybe it's just better to leave it as it is and find another song to mix.
Cheers,
Olli
