Hey everyone, this is my first full mix as well as my first post on this site. Please don't hold back in your critiques, I want any and all advice/opinions/criticism you have to offer! I'm trying to improve as much as possible. Thanks for listening!

Starts out very nice. Tasty choice of reverb/delay on the vocal.

Things you could improve (IMO):

- the radio voice sounds misplaced to me, does not suit the song IMO
- the lead vocal needs some taming, volume-wise (some parts stick out very much)
- the drums seem to come from the left side, and the room on the drums sounds strange
- backup vocals may need some more work

Regards,
Steffen

Thank you for the input. The "radio voice" was something I pictured and I just couldnt quite capture it right. I wanted to create a realistic feel for the drums by giving them a bit of pan, but now that you say it the snare it definitely too far left. Ill rework a few things on the vox and see how it comes out!
