tips...
listing what you are using now would help in giving you some tips. What software are you using? What mics? If I knew that I could tell where you're coming from and give advice that might be helpful.

As it is, the song is a great little sketch. It sounds like you are moving around a bit relative to your mic as the sound gets louder and softer a slight bit. Using a large diaphragm condenser mic might help as it is less susceptible to the proximity effect. It sounds like you might be using the built-in mic on your computer as there's a bit of room noise, that white noise in the background. That happens when you have to turn up the mic input a lot to get enough volume to pick up the nuances of the performance, which also makes it more critical that you watch your distance to the mic.

But really it's impossible to give you proper advice without knowing at least a little bit about how you are recording. It'd be nice be able to give you the advice you are looking for, though because you're obviously very talented. I respect your intention to keep it rough and real, and to let the music speak for itself, but I don't want to steer you wrong with mic recommendations that might be not the best for your music making.

Good song
Good performance. I hope you get some tips on microphones because the sound is a bit raw. Hiss and some distortion.

Really enjoyed this.
Your voice really suits the bluesyness of the guitar and the vibe of the song.

Good Track
I think this is a great track. I know its rough but you can do some great things with it. AS for Mic's I use a Rode Nt-1a - 230$ and get some great results for budget price.
