Orthogonal Records mix of Eliza Jane - orthogonalrecords - 17-07-2017
Hi all!
Here's my mix of Eliza Jane, that I've already done a few months ago but forgot to upload here.
Hope you like it and looking forward to your comments.
Best,
Markus

A lot of good things and a few not so much. Drums are excellent and meld very nicely with the acoustics. I think the bass is a miss. Too much compression resulting is too much mid-fret vibe which I feel detracts from the ensemble a bit. Vocals are good but I thought I heard a change in the ratio of the reverb on the lead vocal at the front of the song. I would also like to hear the harmony a little tighter. I think some automation on the pedal steel and mandolins during the break would enhance the musicality of the mix. Sorry to sounds harsh because over-all you've done a great job. Just a few things could improve. I think I could probably say that about my own mix!
