Perpetual Escape,Duty & Memories new mix - Cudjoe - 15-07-2017
New mix, all comments are welcomed.

Hey !
It's hard to be very objective on your mix because of the bottom snare track: it adds a lot of artifacts (a lot of snare wires buzzes when I hit other drum shells) and brings a lot of cymbal bleed so it's very distractive.
I think you overcompressed the drum loop in the verses. It has lost a lot of punch and low end. Was it on purpose ?
I like the guitar and bass tone, but again, once you'll fix the drums their qualities will be more obvious
Keep it up !

Hi Cudjoe ,
Listening to version 2 sounds pretty good and well balanced ,In the intro maybe a touch less 100-200 on the electric and a touch more 2-3k , Thinking A touch more punch and top end on the drums throughout song especially the snare and toms would sound awesome !
probably personal taste things on my monitors !
Nice work !
Cheers

Hey !
That's much better
Now I think the drum shell could deserve more clarity and brightness. The hats have a constant "ssssss" pretty aggressive.The drum loop is way much better now
You can try some little distortion on it if you want it to be more aggressive. Keep it up
