Hey all.
We've been getting a bit of airplay with the new album lately.....The bit I really fear.

because it always sounds so squashed and unprofessional.
I used to let it slide on the basis that you're competing with massive budgets and long time served professionals, but even against other local small budget artists, I'm not sure my mixes are standing up.
We had the last record professionally mastered and it also pumped a fair bit in the choruses, so I'm starting to think this is a fundamental mix issue.
The thing is, no one else seems to be bothered; Even the artist!
Is it just me? Is there a problem?

Here's the clip. You'll hear the intro chorus on air, then it's repeated from the CD.
Wav...Might take a minute to load.
Thanks in advance.
