Blue - HB Mix

[ptalbot]

Thanks for the insight....my son just turned 12 (going on 14) so I get what you mean....I listen to the lyrics very differently now....very innocent and nostalgic so the dreamy vibe really makes sense

She's only 13 but I already have the feeling it's not going to get any easier!

Artist feedback is great imo....people are free to take whatever the artist says on-board or not. Getting constructive feedback, be it positive or negative, is the lifeblood of this forum.....most guys thrive on it.

One of the best ways to become a better mixer is to give feedback - as it encourages analytical listening and judging by your feedback, you have developed that skill nicely

I totally agree, and I've been part of this forum here: http://forum.recordingreview.com/ where there is a section called 'Bash This Recording' (much nicer than it sounds really, people are very friendly and helpful, you will find every kind of people there, from newbie to professional, musicians and mixers) for almost two years now and have practised critical listening on most of the submissions there. I know that I've learned a lot there even though there's always more to learn!
It's a great resource and you will be welcome there as well!
