Challenging Mix
RE: Still Flyin - Roy - 23-02-2017
I think this is a good mix but not what the genre calls for. It's hard to explain.
The vocals sound great. I could use a little more in the way of effects but tonally, knowing what we've had to work with, you've got them sounding really natural. Same with the bass. I'd like a little more definition but I remember how much hi end is in the original bass and you've tamed that well.
I'm pretty sure the scream vocals aren't in time.
It sounds good and you've got a complex and challenging mix to sound good. But it's almost too clean. I don't know "post hardcore" at all but it feels like this mix isn't the right tone compared to what I'm used to in the reference, album mix.
Hopefully that makes sense. You did a great job and I'm impressed but it needs something else.
