Much too much - voelund

[Dags]

Hey Voelund.
A good choice to predominantly use the room tracks in this song. The overall mix is much smoother than I could achieve trying to bring the solo horn tracks into focus and wrestling with fluctuating volume & tonal changes as the performers shifted their bell positions slightly off mic.

I'd only suggest bringing the vocals up a bit (and ride the fader to keep them above the louder swells or when she sings quieter) and controlling the bass volume a bit more - it was a tricky instrument to get right as it wanders in and out. Clamping a medium ratio (6-8:1 ratio) compressor with a long release time and suitable makeup gain could help with this, and scooping some of the 200Hz mud out of it will make it sound a bit less murky...maybe adding a little 800Hz upper mid audibility and 2kHz 'presence' to the bass might work (I have honestly forgotten what I had to do to try to fix it)

This was a deceptively difficult track to work with and I think you have put together a really good mix.
