I like this remix but would maybe agree with some of the posters that its a bit static going through. I think it kicks quite well and the mixing is good (maybe a bit crushed for my liking but yeah its decent). Feels a bit dry in some places, maybe some additional lead stuff would have opened it up a bit.
I love the drum work! Basically, though, I enjoy the first minute or so and then I lose interest... Seems like a better song idea than a remix. I'd strip any "So Long Sentiment" elements and just see where the first minute takes you. Just my thoughts...
thx.. damn, I wish I had more hardware and stuff. only thing that I have is my laptop and roland rh-200 headphones. It's hard to do mix with this. and since this is my first mix ever, the skill will only be increasing.
Actually if you know how to use compressor, limiter and maximiser together, it adds more extra kick than you can wish. Nevertheless i made a graph for it. Ofc, it's only a graphic illustration and is far from reality, but I just wanted to educate you a bit.. :)
nice mix the vocal arangement makes it stand out to me more but trying to make everything equal with the limiting kills it for me its just lacking some kick behind it
you have a good start just keep editing
Well I really like the drums at the start. could be a little punchier though. I like what you did with the vocals. Good arranging. I like the track, but nothing ever pops out to me. You left a comment about compression and limiting, and I know what you mean, but maybe you've overdone it? I was waiting on a lead to break out forever, but everything sounds about equal. Around 2:29, the drums bring in good, but I would like to hear something louder. Honestly, you always need a lead, and I don't hear one in there. It's like everything is trying to sound equal. Like you've tried to make it all stand out as much, and then nothing standing out. Try to to perfect it so much and just see how it sits. I'm really interested in this mix because I like all the elements, but I really don't like the way you've mastered it. Let me know if you update!
