My Mix Post - dwilliams - 15-02-2019

Here's my mix. Any constructive advise?
I think it is a good start (rough mix) with full frequency and well balanced. Maybe not very sonically interesting (maybe more stereo effects could be used??).
I did try to fix the obvious bad timing on the drums entrance. haha
Looking for creative ways to keep song intersting and moving forward.
thx in advance

hey man this is pretty good, maybe a little bit more taming off the vocal sibilance also maybe a cut out around 350 400 ish and like 650- 800 ish area as its sounding a bit boxy, otherwise great start

Thanks Spandexcore. I'll take a listen again and review those ranges. Did you feel there was a particular offending instrument in those ranges, or the mix as a whole in those frequency ranges?
Thx

Hey there,

Acoustics are nice and full, but a bit muddy. It sounds like there is some compression going on also. I would try removing some low-mid, without robbing them of there nice full sound. And back of the compression a tiny bit and/or increase the release time.
Vocals are a bit sibilant. Also I am not a fan of the double tracked vocal.
Also, for such a chill track you squashed the mix too far i think. It gets tireing to listen to after a while. Don't try to have every instrument to be heard equally, but try to place some tracks more upfront then others.

Cheers,
LukasAngel
