Please give me some feedback so I can get better. I did a very quick and rough "mastering" job to make it louder (Fork MA 2). Fork full 6.2 is the original mix. I will be happy to answer any questions anybody has!

Hey Cliff, I received your private message.
Yeah, actually a good mix. The snare could smack a little more in my opinion, the whole drumset sounds a bit dense as if you were a bit afraid of opening it up in the mix. Guitars may sound a bit thin or boxy maybe, but that's just very subtle.
You got the bass guitar and the vocals really nice, good job on that! Love the usage of effects, reverb on vocals and synth in the choruses, tape distortion (right?) on the guitars and now that I'm a little further into the song I'm getting used to the old schoolish sound of the drums. That's what garage drums must sound like. Cool, creative mix! Keep it up Smile

Thanks dude. I think i did a better job on the mix rather than the mastering job. I used tape saturation everywhere on this mix. I wish i made the drums more prominent, it's something I've been working on since this mix.

Sorry it took me so long to respond. I have been super busy with work.
