Human Radio - You And Me And The Radio (M&F)
#20
I can appreciate what you want to get out of this mix, a dynamic, bright, and tight mix. However the kick seems to be really lacking that rock and roll thump, it actually sounds more like a lower pitched snare than a kick drum. A small boost around 50-60 Hz in the kick would bring some of the energy back to the kick. The snare also has a brittle sound to it, probably from too much bottom snare in the mix. Back off the bottom snare and boost the top for some more weight. The vocals sound have a rich, warm sound to them. They need a stereo reverb on them just to have some more space around them and to fit them more into the room that the drums and guitar are in. For the chorus at least, some parallel compression would help the drums to pop out a touch and to help differentiate it from the verses. Overall I like were the mix is headed, it just needs more time for polishing.
Mixing is way more art and soul than science. We don’t really know what we’re doing. We do it because we love music! It’s the love of music first. Eddie Kramer
