Had a listen to your first and last mix. Good development ! First is maybe loud but not clear. Last is much more coherent.
Im afraid I agree on the snare bein a bit thin. And the eq leave the instruments fightin over mid freq real estate instead of leavin space for each one
I have the feeling this would sound great bein played very loud (except the piano would really hit you hard then)
Hmm let me rephrase that, this sounds like some mixes I made when I mixed at much higher lvl than now. The ears get tired fast and loose perspective.
Do you mix at high volume ? If so its good advice to use lower volume, speakers when youre ready for that and take breaks evry hour at least, preferably listnin to some cd in same genre and soundin like you want the mix to sound.
Another good technique if say piano and gtr fight for space decide where each instr important sound is and cut little holes in the other round that frequency, pretty narrow q.
If you want piano to cut at 1,2k you cut hole in gtr there, and gtr sound wonderfull round 335 you cut hole in piano there.

Old ears, old gear, little boy inside love music and sounds and my wife, not necessarily in that order
