What Child is This - juanjose1967 - 10-12-2014
Here's my mix of this 'modern Christmas Carol'.
Comments and suggestions are welcomed as usual.

Wonderful mix!
Maybe some build up in low mids. More audible in the later part of song.

I'd compress the bass parts a bit more when they come in ~ 1:30. Need more attack than note there. Reducing the durration of those notes might help your buildup issue. Also, watch out for that bass drum (I know it's labeled kick but to me it sounds like a concert bass drum, soft mallet et al). I think it's up just a touch high. I'd do some peak compression on that to bring up the sustain just a hair so it decays instead of ending somewhat abruptly (because it drops below the rest of the mix so fast). Could also go in and put a -2db shelf at 60 hz there perhaps.
Good mix, dude. I like.
