Hey guy, I'll really apreciate that you check out this tune:

Any advice will be great!

Hi, right now it sounds like a big mass, i feel that the instruments are not well separated. I think it's a problem with the low frequencies... and i bet that the problem is on the guitars eq. Kill those frequencies and you'll get a pretty good mix.

The levels are very good.

Cheers.

I think it's great. I like the rythm guitars have a nice seperation with the lead in the centre.

Maybe a little too much in the mid range, but a strong bass line would really help and a little more punch/depth to the kick and snare.

That's just cause you asked. All in all though, excellent effort!

Not a bad effort at all. Mix sounds pretty good to me, but what's that hiss at the end, ocean waves?

Yeah man, the song it's called sea so it end with the sound of waves on the shoreline.

Updated song, less "rumble", add some sparkle.

I realized some (extra) compression was going on the snare. I removed it, bring up the fader and remove some verb to make it more prominent on the mix. I really like when the snare whams!

I can hear the instruments very good right now, well done... but now the bass and guitars are too buried under the drums. The melodic guitar (lead instrument) bring it up.
I think this is only the Mix (no mastering) because the overall volume is too low... right?

Keep Going, you're almost there.

Yeah man, you damn right about the rhythm guitars, the drums are quite loud now... I think a little less volume can balance the mix. I haven't "mastered" yet, I wanna have a solid mix first. Thanks for all.
