Thanks!!

Thank you for doing a mix of this track! First off, I appreciate how loud you were able to get it and how focused the vocals and drums are. There's just a couple of things I'd like to point out that may help you going forward!

1) The guitars are very buried in this mix, while the synths are VERY upfront.
2) The drums are very dry. Less direct and more room and you'd probably nail the balance
3) The toms are kinda lacking in beef / low end. They're not really giving there haha.

If you adjusted these things, I feel like it would your mix sit a lot nicer and you'd have a way more cohesive piece of work on your hands!

Thank you for your mix,
-Phil

Thank you for the advice!
Please listen

Good job revisiting it!
1) The guitars are MUCH better now than they were before. Excellent balance.
2) The drums are now TOO roomy and not direct enough. Something in the middle of these two revisions would probably be ideal.
3) The toms are definitely fixed! They have a lot more low end punch.

If you can tweak those drums until they feel sufficiently balanced between room and dry, this'll be a really good, really punky take on this track!
Thank you for your mixes
