Hi Richard, I would be looking for LESS COMPRESSION
If you listen to this track on an iPhone or iPad, you feel it squeeze and wrench all the time. The dynamics of the individual components are not fully under control hence they trigger whatever you have put on the 2 bus.
Your mix should work without anything on the master as an afterthought, for example there is no energy at all after the minibreak, it sounds clamped.
I would focus on (controlling) the dynamics of the individual channels and Don't worry about fat or loud. Once the mix is right, it's much easier to raise overal volume during mastering. If the mix sounds already wrenched, it will only sound more squashed when making it louder. For loudness and dynamics. I would aim matching we are the champions from Queen. That track works fine on any stadium PA
Punch first, loudness later |

So I've totally re-done the Luton Football Club song and as the football season is soon upon us I damned well hope this version is ok musically.
Not sure if the main synths in the drop sound modern enough?
RAPHIE this will be played over a fairly ty football ground PA system, in terms of mastering what would you look to do as I worry it will sound crap.
Conversely it also needs to sound ok on I-phones etc, so quite a tricky mastering job eh?

melody sounds very familiar ;)
anyway - to me theres a lot of noisy stuff in the mix which is clouding it up, try and keep it a bit more stripped for a large PA so it comes across clean - make the lead sounds the priority so they stand out, you want it to get into peoples heads |

some droney type stuff - it needs some tweaking here and there i think

| Sounds a bad ass synth Evo, sort of thing I was thinking I need in the background of some of my DnB. |

ajajajajaj hahaha, like it, funny and angry as you said :)
As regards the Luton supporters song - i liked the first version better, why did you redo it - was it too oldfashion or what? |

This has probably too much bass and overall sounds kinda muddy, arrangement is bad as usual :), but what do you think about melody stucture, is it boring and predictable?
