Fytakyte - Bitter - Updated Mix3a

[Mixinthecloud]

I can see what you're saying and can agree about going for texture over definition. I think part of it is knowing all of the elements in the song and listening for everything.

I haven't checked out the other songs by Fytakyte but I meant to. Thanks for the reminder. Also you reminded me that I meant to check out a Zappa song for a vocal sound I remember liking. So, bonus. I do think this is a good song to mix though for all of the parts and all of the choices and directions one can take this song in. It's great to practice on. Hopefully, he'll post others.

Cheers!

After the hundred or so passes at this I think I can say I am pretty familiar with all the parts. I created a bus of the stereo pairings of guitars 2 through 9 which are the candy in this. Guitar 1 being the "jangley" parts and guitar 10 being the solo. Unfortunately there is not a lot of distinction between the tone of guitars 2 - 9. I guess I could have spent a few more hours finding distinct tones for all of those but the intent seemed pretty clear from the artist.

I hope you get a chance to listen to the artist's other music. It is wholly different than this song.
