Why my mixes sucks?Please Help.

Ok,i decided to ask you about some problems.I noticed that every tune i made,i am getting better and better,but every time here is one problem:kick is too heavy and goes direct to my ears.Then i take some pro tunes and see how kick is below all other sounds.I tried everything from equing to compression and all stuff,but problem is still here.If i eq kick and cut middle it sound shitty.I am work with fruity.I am wondering that FL is shit...I hope you understand what i want to say and that you can help me.Maybe i just need some more middle range leads or something?
Here is the sample from my tune:
SAMPLE
This is sample from Sunquest tune,here you can see how kick "lay down":SUNQUEST'S SAMPLE

MAN never blame a software because your tunes sound bad,fruity is not shitty at all,despite peep that tell you is for rookies,can be as powerful as you want it.
In fruity,I will give you a really noobie tip but will help you loads with your kick.
Open the parametric EQ,then go forward like 2 presets,should appear kick bass or sort of,add that FX to the kick channel and will give a lot of sound to your kick and will sound clean,second,use a compressor,a good parametric plus compressor can make wonders with your tracks .
If you have more doubts about FL dont doubt to add me to your msg and I will give you a hand buddy .

yes,sample is maybe ok,but i am still wondering how to get kick "lay down" but still punch...that's my question obviously nobody can help me...i tried million of samples,compression,parametric EQ.Maybe my problem is bad track structure,then kick seems to be "above".
How to get that fuckin background kick?

you just need some good samples (that you wont have to change lots of things on them) or just try layering as many bassdrums (and other sounds why not)you want till you learn how make a good but unique one. and try using the eq but dont boost the lower freqs cuz the kick will sound worse. try the midle to low freq and experiment till you get something you like. and do a search for kick samples in the forum and google. if you made a really good kick youll see that it doenst need anything but a compressor to sound good in the mix. of course it depends on the bass and the other sounds but practice and faliure make you try harder and become better in the end

imo nothing wrong there other than that your kick needs to be brought up in the mix (ie more volume captain!)
