Happy Pills (BCS Mix) - bcs_mix - 16-09-2019

Nice riff, nice vocals! I managed to get a big sound from the drums, too. Wish the drums were tighter, though. A more 'solid' kick drum would make this song feel so much stronger, but hey I tried my best. Also, it's kinda rare that two track guitar lines are enough for heavy music, but in this song it just works somehow!

Such big drums and such small guitars. Smile Some disco dancing flavor it has.

Well, to be fair it's a live recording, there's only so much I could do. The vocal mics already have SO much bleed in it, and guitar tracks are not DIs which means they also have a substantial amount of bleed. You would be surprised how loud the drum bleed from other mics actually are, because I spent quite some time 'blending' the bleed, rather than 'hiding/removing' them.

I do, I handled it too. That thing pushes me to do the mix, that is dictated by "bleed environment", rather than to fight with it. You can check it out.
