My take on this song. Thanks for listening. Cheers!

V2 small changes!
Great example on stereo usage, good balance, though I feel a bit too compressed, making the drums fall behind the rest. I would say back down on everything, get that kick really punching and open up a bit more for the snare! Less compression/limiting doesn't hurt as well.

Hi Kevinw0lf! Many thanks for the feedback. Actually there is not much of compressing here in the mix. There is a mulitband on the master bus 1-2db max and max 4db on the limiter. Anyway I'l do another mix later on. Cheers!
I have to agree with Kevin, the master bus compression/limiting is hurting the mix. Sounds to me like the vocals (on "take" for example) are making the compressor work a bit much. If you want to keep your compression amount, I would try compressing the vocals(without make-up gain) on a bus before they hit the master.

Still, really great mix!

Cheers,
Lukas

Hi Lukas! Many thanks for the feedback. Well, I wanted the mix to be a bit "dirty" and maybe I went too far. Anyway I'l do another mix later on. Cheers!
