When I listened to Bloodsimple and ddb3, I heard what sounded like 
overkill at about 140-160Hz. Jaaa shows it peaking the highest out of 
everything. Of course, this isn't too bad, but it overpowers everything 
else. Other than that, you may want to bring the guitar solo out some in 
ddb3, but that's my preference. Once you have the tracks balanced out 
right, you may want to export the files as flac, or go wav--->flac. This 
way you can make EQ and other edits to the full song, if needed and not 
worry about quality loss.

Hope this helps
