Well, here's my take on this tune. This represents my 40th mix since I started posting here. Been good practice.
First, I wanna say that this was one well assembled tune! Rare to see this sort of care and handling with the writing and chosen instruments.
When it came to mixing, though, I got a little confused on this one because I'm not familiar enough with the type of music so it took me a while to figure out where to take it. The vocals were the hardest because of the way they're tracked. Once I chopped them up into related bits, things made a little more sense. Corrected a few bad edits, adjusted a little timing, and that as all I had to do before bringing up the compressor. I also used a fair amount of stereo delays with this just to try to give it a better sense of width. Quite possible I overdid it but I figured if something that sounded a little artificial would fit anywhere, it'd be here. Anyway, It's a decent mix but I'm not convinced I got everything right here so feel free to make suggestions.
