Try experimenting with some compression on your drum sounds, to really make them punch out.
You've got a few different bass noises competing for space in the lower frequencies. Try carving out a "frequency niche" for each part. That is, pick an area of the frequency spectrum for each noise, and then cut it from each other sound. This should free up some headroom for you and you can really make the sounds growl. (A bit of amp simulation will help, maybe?)
Top marks for using a Goonies sample.

basically techmouse hit the nail on the head...don't worry tho, mixdowns are probably the hardest part about production, and it takes a while to get it down, just keep at it

Nice one people. totaly know what you meen bout the bass. Just bought a sub 2day. So before I was tryin to make sub bass although I couldn't here all of it. The drums aswell think the snare needs more of a snap and kicks more of a punch defo. thanx for your coments, would rather know all the bad things about my production in order to make it right.
peace
