Blue mik123 - mik123 - 31-10-2014
Hi!
I love this song!
My mix!
Thanks for listening!
RE: Blue mik123 - ptalbot - 31-10-2014
Cool mix mik123!
You took a very different approach with a very dry mix, compared to what I had done...
I think the drums are too loud though, and the guitar is very low... I really miss it, and especially during the chorus.
The vocals (I know the sources are not great!) could have less low-end I think, especially with such a dry mix.
An interesting take, thanks for that and glad you love the song, more to come soon!

Interesting take on your mix - i like it - it has a jazz style drum and bass vibe,especially the intro
My ears are telling me that the vox level is a bit too high.......maybe cos the relatively present drum and bass in the intro draws you in as a listener to that direction then the vox come in over the top. Once the song develops i get to use to it....so maybe a case for (more) automation on the vox fader from section to section

Hi!
My mix ver. 3!
I use diferent ( better?) drums!
Thanks for listening!
RE: Blue mik123 - ptalbot - 15-11-2014
The new drums don't make much of a difference IMHO. Except during the chorus where I'm missing the brush swirls...
But an interesting take with the panning, I suppose you tried to get an oldies feel with the drums panned to the right and the rest on the opposite. I'm not sure I like it better (especially on headphones), but on speakers it's OK, kind of sounds like the drums were in the opposite corner from the PA in a jazz club
The bass sounds good though, I like it that you've tamed some of the transients in a tasty way, and the vocals are very present.
The bgvs are too present IMHO, I like when they are tucked farther in the mix.
Overall a very different approach again! Cool job!
