'Iron Sheik': My Mix - Nick - 17-08-2018
I am a student at Full Sail University looking to become a mix master. Here is my mix for 'Iron Sheik' by Dry Clean Only.
I mixed this song in about 1-2 days. No samples were used, and there wasn't too much mastering done (light limiter, a touch of EQ, etc.). Crank up the volume!
I tried going for a more modern sound. Didn't like the style of the official mix (no offense).
Be sure to leave any feedback! (Don't hold back)
EDIT: I've made some revisions, so check out the second mix.

Hi Nick, I like your mix. Instrumentally it sounds very good, although the snare is getting a bit lost during the choruses.
I think the vocal ambience is a little too much all the way through the song. I like the effect you got with the stereo echos on the vocal, but I think you could use them a bit more sparingly - perhaps automating them to come in at times to provide more excitement.
