David Tyo-Never Ebb But Flow - BJS Mix (Revised) - Barton James (Stevens) - 21-08-2020
This song was a pleasure to mix. Comments always welcome.
Ok, I rarely ever go and revise a mix absent being asked to...but I came back and listened to this and there were a couple of glaring issues for me
, so I just had to.I re-EQ'd the snare to give it more body, and I pulled back on the BGV's on the verses. Listen for these differences. Hope this is a stark improvement!

(revisionI) like your idea on how vocals work, but too crunchy for my taste. Cut down on reverb, mixes will start to sound larger.

Looking back, I see your point too much distortion/saturation on the vox. I recently watched a video by Jordan Valeriote where he mentioned he rarely uses reverb and sparingly when he does (prefers delay). This is something I am learning and am applying to new mixes as I move forward...and it's making a difference. Goes to show you can teach an old dog new tricks.
