I finally got round to listening to this.

Very nice. I agree that the Bass is the weakness in this track, but my 
reasoning is different. Personally I would like to hear a much more driving 
bass and I think it needs a few 'rushes' to build it, possibly in the drum 
parts, but there are other ways of doing this. If you feel the piece is 
finished, I would leave it there and simply bear in mind these comments for 
future pieces. I'm not a great fan of over-production.
