Hi wmix - it's Thomas from Nerve 9 and thanks for mixing the track ! If this is your first mix, you have done a great job. I liked that you had made the lead vocal very present - it caught my ear right away. Nice ! I can offer you some suggestions you can take or leave:
1. Sibiliance and t's on the lead vocal were a little prominent at times. Perhaps a little more de-ess and try a bit of transient reduction / attack reduction for the t's. A little automation is needed too on some of the breaths.
2. A little more ambience/effects would help - at times, the mix sounded a little stark. Lead guitar, try some stereo delay etc.
3. I liked that you did a couple of creative edits in the verses to change it up - since I have listened to many mixes of our song, these stood out for me.
4. Maybe a bit heavy on the 1-2 kHz on the bass guitar - have you checked out the March 2015 mix rescue article? Super helpful if you are new to mixing !
Thanks again - keep on mixing !
