Cool song! I kind of like the Swedish vocal. I don't know what your saying, but I like it!

You have dots over your "a". The beginning seems like a werewolf tune. But while I can't understand it, it doesn't feel scary? It kind of feels like a theme song from a TV sitcom? And that's not a bad thing. Those tunes are usually pretty catchy.

Well this is an interesting piece!Sure didn't end up going in the direction I thought it would. 
 
Well, the bass and kick are muddied together, but there is definitely more bass than kick.  Both have got to 'hit you in the chest' (but more so, the kick). 
 
The snare also gets buried at times, and the mix is over-all muddy.
The musicality of the piece is beautiful, mind you. That's great!  The instrumentation is absolutely fine, but is buried in the mix-mud. That mud is usually found in the 400hz range ... you can dip almost every track in that range and suddenly - WOW - everything will sit up.  The the other thing is learning to manipulate the EQ settings with more DIPS than BOOSTS.
 
I have a great help guide that a lot of people have resourced over the years - I mean a lot!  Nearly 12,000 downloads of one particular document called, "Mixing and EQ Guide - 2013" (v. 2013 is updated).  With it, you can perform magic. 
 
Enjoy the guides, and please, continue to produce such interesting 'out of the regular box' pieces.  Well done in the composition end of things, for sure!

Back again after several weeks of sunny vacation. Thanks Wookiee, clintmartin, The Band19 and Flagrant Regard for your comments!
 
The Band19: The intro is supposed to image a trailer for one of his fright movies. A bit MJ-inspired...
 
Flagrant Regard: Thank you for your detailed thoughts, this is what I need! I will try cutting in the 400Hz as you said and maybe return later with another version.

Hej Skräckfilmsproducenten!
Wonderful melodies, unpredictable chord progressions, together that rythmic feel - it's just awesome! 
The mix is good, perhaps a bit overcompressed, lacks some dynamic and perhaps stereo panning as well.
Small nits though!
Bra jobbat!

I too would like to hear more vocals (a bit louder or a bit sharper, one or the other), and a bit less bottom end in a few instruments would help clear up the mix. A great song.
