I really like this mix its sounds great to me the vocals are centered(the shortys voice is amazing so smooth)the trumpet is bomb homie sounds like im at the house of blues. the flo is very smooth as well which makes an overall bad ass track homie keep up the great work. mbox huh! imma have to look into that. are you the producer of the beat as well?

Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words. Its my band DDL Roundhouse (Welcome to DDLRoundhouse.com), and I'm on the keys/DJ. The beat was created through a jam session, no one producer.

Gotta give it up this sounds very clean, puts me in the mind set of the old 70's and 80's mixes, beautiful vocal work. if your going for a more modern feel as far as mixing goes, you could turn the beat up a bit, not that i would suggest it, this track has old school all over it, from the vocal work to the beat to the mixing. Loving the dynamics. might turn the ad libs up a bit or use some compression.
