ok...your snare is to loud & is kinda overpowering everything else. you need to boost the volume of your shakers coz they dont really sound loud enough in the mix. your kick drum is a bit weak try layering it with other kicks to give it a fuller phatter sound.

Also your snare doesnt sound right, its too....noisy. maybe try some other snare sounds or again layer it with others (yours could probably do with a snare with a nice sharp attack & quick decay to give it some more snap).

Add some nice sparkly hats to the mix to fill out the high end of the spectrum. Those shakers are good to help the beat roll but you could do with hats in there as well.

Thats probably a good starting point - but you could also look to add ride cymbals and ghost snare to increase the complexity of the loop.
