				nice stick hit you got there.  sounds like a decent tune in here, but the mix doesnt really let you hear it :S the balance between the instruments is not so good.
sort out the mix down and this would be quiet dope i reckon.  i would find something to replace the vocal samples so your not reliant on vocal samples to keep your tune interesting.  
what you using to produce?  wouldn't mind a copy of this to play if you can sort the mix.

				Thanks for the advice!
It's made on reason, basically I dont know how to mix something down decently but I do have alright monitors tho. 
So do you think certain sounds are just too low or high in the mix?
Is there any tools I should be using to help get a decent mixdown?? I don't know of an equalizer in reason or anything so I can watch all the levels precisely.
Safe!!!

				easy.  I'm just working on a guide to mixing down in Reason.  I will make it straight forward and hopefully easy for people to use and apply.
my tips for Reason are, dont ever use the mastering thingy, instant delete in my book.  as for setting levels, as above 

 soon come.

				good tune man. Go check out boyinaband.com check out the mastering day video tut for dubstep. It isn't exact but gives you a good running start. big ups.

or send your track of to an actual mastering engineer and have it sound like it has been properly mastered.!

				Hi I'm dave from boy in a band.com... lol yeah his voice is very annoying.. And you can always find companies that will mix it down for you for free. First one is always free. Then you can compare yours to theirs.. try to mimic tha real final copy.. I don't believe in hiring someone to do it when you could learn yourself.
