This is your EQing. Guess why it’s too bass heavy…
Quick improvement of your song:
- Adjustment of instrument volumes
- Panning of instruments
- Mono Mix (checked through speakers)
- EQing, filtering and compression in each track
- Sidechaining the Synth Bass
Edit:
You might want to have a closer look at the vocals, because these vocal samples do have a different basic sound and need to be adapted. Through headphones the second part seems to be a liitle too loud. Anyway, this was just a quick improvement, it’s still far from being finished. But this is something that YOU will have to learn yourself, and according to your statement in the linked thread it’s exactly what you want. Always think of the basics. EQing, filtering, compression, mono mixing. Bass too heavy, what can you do? Reduce bass! Mudiness all over the place, what can you do? Reduce bass! Clearness not enough, what can you do? Reduce bass and/or increase higher frequencies! Self-explanatory! Always proceed logically. And check the mixing thread.

Contest idea: Grab a sampled loop like olivier’s funky loop, and build a song in your preferred style around it. It’s not allowed to change the loop, it has to be played in its original state. The one who created the most satisfying song out of the sampled loop wins. Call it MBC whatever or simply whatever. LC perhaps? Good idea or too easy/normal?
