Carol Dant Do Not Stand
#1
Even with small amount of track count i found it abit of a challenge 1 because the drums was not separated and 2 i tried to keep it interesting including distorting the drums, any comment?

I think your vox may be a bit boxy for my taste, but everything else is pretty solid!

The rhodes sound like they need a phase reversal or something. It just sticks out a bit oddly, moreso early on when the mix is a bit more sparse.

I kind of cheated when I submited this track to Mike with Carol. The rough mix I supplied used the 2 track drums in a way where I separated the kick, snare and hats by sending the 2 track to 3 different busses, eqing the send to peak at the fundamental frequency of the drum i wanted to replace (super low end for the kick, mids for the snare, and high end for the hats), putting a gate after the EQ that didn't let the sound of the distorted peaking fundamental out at all, but instead triggered a midi note on the open. Then I could put a sample on top of the supplied drums.

But in my defense, i did supply the drums in the way that they were supplied to me.

I like everything about your mix aside from the vox eq and the rhodes (not that I don't like it, but those are the things that stick out to me).

**edit**

Might not be phase, but just eq. But something just doesn't sit quite right with me when it kicks in.
Nice work, and sorry for the stupid late reply!
