advice and opinion needed

Hello everybody,

I play bass in a small trio from Zagreb, Croatia, Europe. We recorderd some songs recently in a low cost studio, and got only the audio tracks.
Now, were trying to get something out of it.
We did some guitar after recording at home, and the whole new bass line for the song "GRA", and then mixed it with Adobe audition.
But, I dont know anything about mixing, producing etc.
So could you please give me some opinion and advice about the sound:

what's to loud, to quiet...
Especially the drum, (don't know what to do to make it sound better), and the whole mood.

Thanks!

I really like it. It sounds pretty well balanced to me. Good work.

Hey! Great music! Well well well..

The mix is nice but it lacks some things. First of all I get the feeling this isnt mastered. The volume is low and it hasn't got enough "inner boost".
Try out these:

1) The snare needs to be louder and thicker, equalize it a little especially in "attack".
2) the drums set must be compressed better
3) the guitar's volume needs to be a little lower (about 1db)
4) the bass is really awesome but it would be great if you give it a boost in the exact frequency where thw kickdrum "pumps" the sound so they can FIT together and give way more groove and punch to the rhythm..

Also try out to make a bigger volume/mastering
