Firstly, let me congratulate all those who have already had a crack at this song.
Listening to some of the mixes presented I thought to myself "it shouldn't be *that* hard to pull together a decent mix of this song"
I was wrong.
After my third night of trying to make sense of it in the end I gave up trying to satisfy all my requirements of what I wanted to achieve and just went for "can I hear everything well enough? good. print it"
When you start making tiny volume adjustments to tracks, then to others, then take something out altogether and raise the fader until it sounds good then go back and re-adjust the first thing you changed over and over it's time to quit!
This track (probably this entire genre) needs to come with a health warning about listening at high volumes for prolonged periods of time
Let me know if the cymbals are overly bright as my ears have gone into protection mode and it's hard to judge whether they are too loud or about right against the guitars.
