I may be wrong, but I don't think that should change anything.
'Mastering' has a very specific meaning in audio production. It refers to the final adjustments made to a finished mix before release. From the title of your thread, I expected to read a post on an entirely different subject. It's not unheard of for artists to have an album professionally mastered for CD, receive the glass master, and then decide to add songs and reburn the disc thenselves. A good pressing plant would notice that the disc wasn't up to standard, and kick it straight back.

If you don't have a passion for it, then it
is a necessary evil. There's a lot to learn, and more so for those who haven't watched the technologies develop.
I'm listening to the first mix now. It's good. For a first effort, though, it's excellent.
Edit: I'm listening to the second mix. I think you should turn the snare down a tad. Maybe add a little reverb.
