Spent a lot of time making the drums sound huge while still ensuring that there's plenty of clarity with the guitars.Boosted quite a bit around 4k and 6k to make sure that the kick can be heard over the mix.Boosted around 900 hz and 7k for the snare to have a nice pop and snap.Cut a bit of 2.5k from the drum bus to create some space for the rhythm guitars and also made sure that the drums would not overwhelm the guitars.
-hihat seems very loud and a bit harsh
-snare is too quiet
-orchestral elements are pretty loud
-toms are pretty roomy (of course personal preference)
-overall the mix is rather overcompressed (clearly noticable at around 1:45, when the toms hit and everything else just gets quiet)

Hi I went back and listened to it and I agree with you.I tamed the harsh frequencies of the hi-hat,made the snare louder,lowered the levels of the orchestral parts and pulled back on the compression.
Thanks for the feedback!
Let me know what you think about this new version.
