Girls Under The Glass "We Feel Alright" - thedon - 04-03-2014
My try at this great song
!RE: Girls Under The Glass "We Feel Alright" - pauli - 04-03-2014
ah, man, this is great. I love how the piano verb fades seamlessly into the pad... it really sounds like a continuation of the piano reverb, which is totally brilliant and I never would have thought of it in a million years. I dunno if it was your goal, but it really brings the piano to life and gives it the extra sustain it needs to survive the aggressive synth onslaught without sucking up any headroom!
Pretty flippin' good job of containing that unwieldy bass part, too. I couldn't really get my finger on it, and it seems like most of our comrades have used some form of replacement in the sub regions to tighten up the sloppy dynamics. As you know, I had to squeeze the low end dynamics to the point of distortion to get them to even out enough that the rhythm fell into place and it ruined my mix.... so how'd you do it? That burst of low end after the attack on the kick is somehow not muddying things either... how'd you get this all to work? And most importantly, how'd you contain all that 2 to 5 khz data? I couldn't get the guitars to a suitable volume/balance without overdoing it.
Great job, man, keep 'em comin

Thanks for having a detailed listen as always and kind words !
With the piano I boosted the top end quite a bit to sonically fit in with the synths and used delays to spread it out ,with the bass and kick didn't really do too much, just removed the bottom end boom 50hz and below !
With the bass done an 8db boost at 50hz with a parametric eq with a q width of 5 !
I find Constantly comparing to my reference cd helps me !
The electric guitars done a gentle eq 2-5 k about -3db and spread them out using stereo delays .
Thanks

If that was mastered it would be ready for the wireless
