Angels In Amplifiers: 'I'm Alright' (critiques plz) - LukasL - 20-11-2017
Hey guys,
here is my mix of this track, which was pretty unproblematic. Please leave feedback
Okay 4 Months later and I remixed this completley from scratch. I'd say I improved a lot comparing the new version (v3) to the old one (v1). Better mono compatebilty, more impactful drums and fuller low-mids. Hope someone checks this out and leaves some critique.
New Version:
Aimed for a fairy natural, but still dense and polished sounding mix. I tried to stay away from that dreaded solo button, hope this works. Let me know what you think!
Cheers,
Lukas

Hi!
I checked out all 3 mixes.
All pretty good really, and quite interesting from a progression perspective. They are all going for a similar tone and balance.
v1 maybe a touch shy and perhaps a bit too much reverb. v3 is more confident sounding, more upfront, better reverb. I think this one is my favourite of the 3. I think the 'new' mix might be a just a touch bright in the 1-5k region (possibly 3k ish) to me? Mix v3 sounds just a little more cohesive and balanced frequency wise to me I think, maybe it has just a little more in the low mids area too perhaps?
Cheers!

Hallo Lukas,
A good mix. I like panning. I have checked your mix in my monitors and headphones, as well as in my car. In my opinion there are the following issues:
1. Mid frequencies dominate in the mix creating a little tonal misbalance
2. Drums sound kinda “elektronisch”, a bit like a synth, not alive
3. at 0:35 dead pause before the 1st chorus is not dead and still has some hum from the track 01 Kick
4. Solo guitar parts are a bit lost in the mix, I would put their level a little higher in the mix (I am guitar player
)5. Vocal EQ need to be checked, the vocal disappears in some parts, especially in the 2nd chorus
Keep on mixing!
