Hm, I don't know if extending the intro still falls under "mixing", but I like it! If I count correctly, the first kick hits on the 6th eighth ("3 and"), and that of course fits the song. However, it may be easier for the listener to spot the one if the first kick hits, like, on the 3rd quarter ("3"). Or even on the one itself. I mean, why not add another full bar while you're already at it?
I like the overall frequency balance, given that this is a more polished mix. But even on that condition, I find the compression too heavy, and hindering a relaxed listen deeper into the mix's details -- doing which would otherwise be promising.
