I think I preferred the original, but it still sounds old skool to me.
That`s not a bad thing, but more of a personal thing I have against looking backwards.
I agree with Xfive about the kick and bass in this though, and it seems to be a recurring problem you have with your productions. They never quite seem to cover a a wide enough frequency range, and with stuff like this you really do need more depth to the sound.
It`s either a monitoring problem, or you are just cutting too much off on the bottom end with the eq.

Other than the final mix problem this is nicely executed.
