    Hi John, I like the song and arrangement.  
    Did you do this in Sonar?  
    I like the lead vocal sound.  
    The reverb length seems a little too long.
    I can't hear the bass very well but the kick comes thru nicely.

    It definitely doesn't sound bad at all. I think having everything be REALLY environmental and reverby makes the track lose a little bit of musical power. I would've tried to get everything to feel a bit 'closer' to the listener. But everything sounds like it has a place inside the mix. Finally perhaps some velocity variation on the drum kit just to add a touch of realism. Definitely sounds good from here though if the mix is what you were going for.

    Hi John, Try thinking of your mix in 3 dimensions, I get the feeling that all the instruments are lined up in front of me, every one of them at the same volume all the time. Some light and shade on them would give the song more power.
