Motor Tapes- 'Shore' Mix - TrueNorthStudios - 26-10-2018

Hey Everyone!
Here is my mix of Motor Tapes-'Shore'
This is a great song, and I had a lot of fun mixing it.
I experimented with using multiple compressors on the bass bus, and think I got a pretty cool sound out of it.
Id love to hear any comments or feedback.

Nice mix, TNS! Very balanced, clear, yet natural sounding.

The only things I noticed were
- The vocals tend to be a little bit too sibilant (If you have the Slate bundle Eiosis Deesser is awesome for gentle deessing).
- The singer's breaths need attention - they are tending to be overly loud and make him sound a bit like he's gasping at times.
- The floor tom section of the song is a little messy. It could use tightening up in the lows/low mids for a little more definition during that part.

Nice work!
