In a nutshell, mixing music involves shaping all of the individual instrument tracks in a song into a cohesive whole. From setting the levels of each sound to modifying their tonal characteristics, mixing music involves balancing a lot of different factors.

The difference between mastering and mixing is that when you master, you're no longer working with all the individual song elements. Instead, you're applying precise polishing to the overall results from the mastering stage. Mastering music involves subtle changes to the overall sound to remove some harshness, bring out more complex undertones, and to make it sound as good as possible in its final form.
