    You are definitely getting the hang of this.  I like the song and the stereo spread of this mix.  The vocal sits nicely above the instruments, and the drums are present without being too present.  All that's missing from this is the bass line that distinguishes Reggae from all other genres.  I know it's there, but it is buried under everything else and doesn't drive the song.  Put this up against a Bob Marley song, and you'll see what I mean.  Turn the bass up a couple of notches and you're there.  BTW, the tone of the bass and everything else is right on.  Onward and upward.

    All the best,
    Lynn

    The bass seems fine to me. I always like reggae bass lines.

    Very nice!

    Seem to me you maybe raised the bass already since the last posts. I listened with my head phones and could hear the bass fine. Very nicely done. Peace be with you. Blessings, John

    Hey Tony, I can hear you have your head around the genre but the mix is a mess.

    When the track starts, you can't hear the vocal.  It sounds too busy.  This is not in English, so I am guessing you either don't speak English or it is a 2nd languge.

    Once we get into the verse, your voice is much more distinguishable and then the track is a lot more pleasent.

    I would back the verb off the voice, this is what I think is making the voice hard to understand.

    Apart from that, the instrumentation is nice.

    Peace Ben
