Travis,

Nice effort.

This really seems performance wise like it needs to be tighter. There were spots is here that I just wasn't sure what was going on musically.

The panned hard right high hat is too much in My opinion. Bring that more in the middle just off center. Maybe even down a couple db.

The musical interlude @ 1:12 is really not happening for me at all. I'm not sure why but it's not moving my attention where you want it to be. Try playing with levels. Get everything right exactly where you want it to be and then bring thing up and center as you want my attention to focus on them. Then right back down and the next instrument comes up.

Try some EQ on your guitar, it's pretty muddy. Try to stay away from the hard panning of the cymbals (which also seem a but loud for the song). They should be delicately panned unless you have multiple cymbals being used panned to either side.

Sorry to be so hard, but I think you can really get more out of this song.
