hey man. your sound quality has definitely improved a lot. everything is very clear and upfront. so much so, that i'd say you can afford to push some of the sounds to the back (either turn them down a bit or add more reverb) to give it more depth.
i haven't sent any of my stuff out to labels yet, so i'm not the best person to say exactly how far this is from releasable, but i think you are moving in the right direction for sure.
