Mixed on only headphones - Hessel Visser - 19-11-2015

Hey guys,

My first time in here, found out about this site last morning..
This Forkupines was the firs one that showed up, so mixed this today at my temporary studio at my home on just headphones..
After all i guess it sounds pretty nice, so check it if you want to and leave a comment..

Cheers,

Hessel Visser

Nice mix. Good balance my only comment would be I think the kick could punch through a bit more. Its always a fine balancing act between bass and kick. Also I think you could bring out the toms in the Bridge tom bit. Enjoyed listeningSmile

Thanks Nos!
I know what you mean with the toms and kick.
The kick drum is a little bit to much in war with the bass guitar in the subs i think, so those notes are getting drowned in disadvantage of the kickdrum.
I'll fix it... Wink

I like! I think it sounds awesome with the intro edited outta there! During the chorus it kinda sounds like something is being a little over compressed IMO

Thanks saver of Chris!
Im not sure what it is that sounds over compressed.
To me something over compressed sounds instable and fucked up...

I use compression as a sound design tool, but i guess the amount of compression i have on a ass kickking rock tune would be way to much compression for a jazz song...

Did you mean it that way?

Cheers!
