I remember this one from the name. I remember the idea, it's a cool one. I remember some of its problems too.

0:27 in, I already know two problems you're having: sound design, and harmony. Work on those.

Some of your sounds are dry and exposed, while others are drowned and muffled. When used intentionally, this is a way to control what the listener focuses his ears on. When it's not intentional, like here, it distracts the listener, it breaks immersion. Study this in well mixed tracks, learn how to do it yourself.

Harmony is easier to grasp because there are some formal rules for it that help. Read up on musical scales and key. Learn to tell when stuff clashes.

These problems persists through the mix, so they need to be fixed. Learn to understand what's causing them, and stop doing that. :P
