Atrophy_Mix 1 - jimmyklane - 15-08-2017

Here is my first go at this one....hope you enjoy. I can add my workflow if anyone is interested....forgive the noise, lots of ancient outboard on this one.

PS: I would really love your opinions on this track. It was fun to mix, but I've heard some constructive criticism from musician friends of mine so would like yours too!!!

Hey Jim,

here we go!

What I like:
- Nice ambience in the beginnning
- That we are listening from the drummers perspective
- Tight, attack-heavy drums
- Guitar and Bass tone
- Panning and (most) of the Levels
- FX-choice

Suggestions:
- Bass to loud; hits right in the face at 0:28 (could also be the kick)
- Drum BUS Comp is working to heavily, there are audible cuts in the cymbals especially at 1:30
- More sustain ("fatness" on the kick and Snare)
- Louder cymbals they sound dull and cheap atm.
- Song needs more dynamics, sounds pretty flat to me
