IMO, mixmkr turns out the best mixes on this board.
I was listening and it all became so clear to me. some reasons why I think his mixes are so grown up.
Just in case you have not heard it, listen to spanish nightshere:

Stereo image: when his soundstage forms in the mind, the instruments are playing like they would be on an actual stage. One instrument is not panned so hard that it sounds like its playing on an entirely different stage from the rest of the music. Also his use of the same reverb adds to the vision of everything coming from the same room. THe mix also does a great job of putting us in the best seat in the auditorium.
Balance: Everything seems to play as a coherent unit. Nothing is asserting itself or demanding to be a solo instrument in a group. Everything has balance and respect for the other instrument. Everything also sounds natural. No unnatural boosting of one particular frequency in any instrument.
Ambience: Mixmkr is notorious for not being afraid to use that reverb. He also chose a nice room. SOunds like a nice concert hall that I would pay $100 to hear a great musician in. Does not sound like a living room or a bedroom( that gives an amateur image)
As I said, IMO.
Mixmkr, you funk.
Funk on!
