Dead Roses - CloudCuckoo Mix - cloudcuckoo - 01-05-2016
Hey all,
here is my take on the song. I really enjoyed the mixing process but I had some trouble with the piano. Where to put it in the song. I also struggled to get depth in the mix without the instruments sounding too much away. I wanted to keep the intimate feeling of the vocal.
I appreciate comments on my mix.
Best regards,
Cloud

I think you've done a very nice job with this mix. The vocals had some challenges in this song and you've done a great job of placing in the environment while keeping them intimate. I also think your treatment of the piano is fine. Three things : The acoustic guitars might benefit from more attention, not quite sold on the added effects on the electrics, the vocal effects on the final phrase missed the mark a bit and your mastering level is kind of low. These are minor issues so over-all, I enjoyed your mix of this.
