Well, our first studio track, which was recorded by a
student
engineer in a semi-proper studio on protools, then mixed and
mastered by a professional engineer is here:

Unless you made something really weird when encoding the mp3, I'd
really suggest you avoid the "professional engineer" in the future.
The track is so badly compressed and brickwall-limited it distorts in
several places.
The best thing would be if you pointed him to some articles about the
loudness war (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness_war is a starter)
and explained that it's not a good thing and you don't win by hitting
0dB as many times as possible during a song.
