Then the horns should increase in frequency to coordinate with the hits and then drone out over the end.

This word frequency here, what do one usually refer to - pitch or vol? I just got very confused :O

Neither, in this context, it's talking about the number of notes they play. Increasingly more notes, coordinating with the rhythm of other instruments, and then holding notes for longer durations.

Oh I see, thank you very much

How about this?

The faster hitting drums in the background could be mixed up a bit more.

Does this mean that the drums should be more discrete, or more sounds to it?

They're referring to the drums that are faster in rhythm [presumably in comparison to some other instrument that is hitting with less frequency]. By 'mixed up a bit', that may indicate a lack of variation.

They're essentially saying that the fast drums playing a supporting role need some variation. Depending on context, that may mean the velocity / volume, pitch, or the pattern itself should have more variety.

the frequency in theory literally means how many times the sound vibrates for second..

idk if that's any used to you, but yeah..
