Street Noise: 'I'd Rather Be Drinkin''
#1
Here is Version 1 ,Spent about an hour so far.
Used my Cd of Harry Connick Jnr To Love the language as a guide.

Version 2 has less bass and more piano.

Cool mix!
The kick is sometimes too much, but in this style do not really want to compress itHuh
I liked piano's place in mix.
Well DoneSmile

I really like your bass sound, although you might turn it a bit down? Did you use multiband compression or what? Solid mix!

Really Solid Don. I've just come across from listening to "Omar & The Howlers" (A similar Style) with a smooth transition. Love the guitar tone and the vocal is sitting real nice. Piano could come up a bit where featured in free space maybe, pretty minor thing though. Well done. Not too much left to do.

Nice mix Don! The bass really sound fat and deep! I think the piano solo needs to come up in the mix some for it to be heard better but otherwise really clean sounding mix! Their vocalist actually reminds me of a local bluesman in my area, Dennis Parker, which is really cool, here's a link to one of his tracks https://soundcloud.com/denisparker/where...nds-blow-1
Mixing is way more art and soul than science. We don’t really know what we’re doing. We do it because we love music! It’s the love of music first. Eddie Kramer

Hi DCP,
Definitely the piano needs more automation in version 2.
I think the bass needs to be tamed a touch.
also I forgot to unmute the tom tracks Blush
I am going to have a listen out Denis Parker .
Thanks for the feedback

I agree the bass is a too heavy, to try to get similar bass tone to my reference track I done a dip between 100hz and 2 k with the centre frequency of around 900hz -12db and used Waves Bass Rider,L3a and CLA bass plugin.
Thanks for the feedback.
cheers.
