I must say I'm quite impressed, you had a lot going in the bass section and managed to keep it mostly clean and mud free. At 1:38 (and sections like it) when you bring in the second bassline/melody it does conflict with the kick and original bassline causing some, minor, distortion as-well as losing the kicks pump and drive. When that specific synth was panned to the far sides it did help a little but the mix may then translate poorly to a mono system. Your cymbals and shakers did a fair job filling in the upper high frequencies but it seems you largely avoided the mids to highs for a large portion of the song and even when you did have synths playing they didn't fill the gap completely.
Very enjoyable piece, you kept it changing and evolving to the point where I was never looking forward to the end of the track.
