Hi Bob
Having a little listen haven't downloaded yet but thinking of having a try .
I like your mix nice use of effects ,every body body's monitors translate differently so don't take much notice of my observations as probably wrong, Anyway a couple of things that jump out on my monitors ,The vocals sound a touch harsh especially in the chorus approximately 3-6k area maybe some De-essing .Can hear some mid bass frequency build up rough guess 150-300 area with the bass ,Rhodes ,kick and snare .
The hi hats sound a touch upfront ,missing some dynamics especially on the snare could be compression !

I agree with your statement that there is some mid bass frequency build up, Rhodes is to bass heavy (I would use hpf around 100) . Vocal is sounding harsh, but I think around 2k. Drums need more high end.

Thanks for the input, guys. Here it is with some more eq work.

You really brought out the groove in the drums which I like. A lot of the mixes I've listen to the ghost notes on the snare were just to low to cut and the groove suffered.

The choruses are a little underwhelming but they were hard to fill out. I like what you done with them just needed pushed more !
