Il suggest making your drums louder, maybe duck some frequencies in your mid bass where your snare and kick sit. With the two high end melodeys il say spread one and narrow the other with panning/stereo seperation to help give them ther own space in the mix.
Nice work keep it up

Hey man, listened to your tune and would say, if it were me, too really work on mixing. The drums don't really cut through the mix very well, and I can't hear any sub. I wouldn't worry about compression and mastering much in the beginning, something I learned is that really you have to really get your mixes sounding clean before you should even start worrying about mastering. In the beginning you are making tunes to have fun, nothing too serious yet!

Thx for the input.. What do u mean in the beginning? The beginning stages of the song? compression is pretty important why would i ever want to neglect using it? And mastering is the final process so I dont fuck around with mastering in the beginning.I definitely agree the drums dont cut through enough, but your kinda confusing me with the rest of your comment man

I meant production wise, beginning of your producing career. Compression is important, but only once you manage to get your mixdowns right.
