I listened to the Mastered version. Overall I like it. I really like the kick. It gets the overall spirit of the song. It might be a little 'overdone'. I feel like the mix was designed to impress as opposed to fully support the song. It's very hard to describe. It's like a well made blockbuster movie. It's fun. I'm missing the plot a bit though. And I only say that because you did a really good job and I think the next step is to explore more of the subtle depth of the song. Not individual parts but the the emotion of the song.

This is a really good mix. As a mixer, it's fun to listen to. The song itself is pretty melancholy. And I think that could come across more. The emotion of the song gets lost. I think we've all failed at that. That's not a criticism but just the next level to think about mixing.

Good job.

THANK YOU BRO
I agree with you very much.
Because my English is not good enough,in fact I dont get understand the mean of this song,so I can't grasp the emotion of this song very well,I can only treat it as a normal rock song

I MIX IT WIHT MY IPHONE EARPODS, very cheap equipment
I think there are still some places I haven't dealt with very well。
If you have more good ideas, please let me know

Thank you!!!!

I understand. And I'm sure I'd be the same way with a mix that was in Chinese. I don't want to interpret the song for. I'm pretty sure it's about addiction though. I'm terrible at analysis. The emotional part is very subtle in regards to your mix. I think we've all focused on the 'rock' element of the song. And that's ok. It's a tough guy in a leather jacket. But he's vulnerable. I'm sure that doesn't make sense.

Like I said it's a pretty good mix. You don't have to change much. But there's subtle improvements that could be made. And I'm not sure what.

I mix with iPhone Earbuds. It's not ideal. I'm not always happy with them. But, I still make, in my opinion, ok mixes with them. I bet you listen to them a lot. You know how they sound. Trust your ears.

Good friend
Problem with compression, whenever the bass drum plays the music goes down.
Try to solve this problem.
