Jokers, Jacks & Kings: Sea Of Leaves - juanjose1967 - 01-01-2014
My first mix of the year... well, in fact I started a few years ago, but it's now when I consider it finished.
I couldn't achieve a good kick sound, so I used a drum trigger instead. The rest is all original

Just a touch Less reverb for my taste !

Thanks, Don!

Sounds great. The drums could be a tad higher or guitars a tad down.
But I will rather hear it on my speakers to be sure. Like the dirty eq on guitars.
Sounds like a fun song to mix.

I understand your mix much better listnin on speakers.
It sounds great played loud. Only the drums kinda disappear at lower volume.
But its rock so who cares :-) Play it loud !

The vocals, guitars, and synths sound really good, especially the pad.. I like the ambient nature you've given it. Having said that, I think it's still a little thick with reverb, so I think a delay might be the way to go, or maybe dip the verbs lower and keep the tail really short.
I like the idea of triggering the kick drum. The two mics are slightly out of time with eachother, so there's a phase misalignment that sorta weakens their power. If fiddling with the timing isn't your thing, then a trigger is a good idea, but I think you should reconsider your sample because it's drowning the mix in sub-bass in a way that's not usual for the style.
Otherwise, the balance is great and the sonics are great... just the verbs and the kick drum sample are hurting the blend a little (for my taste)
