This was mixed at work on a single blue tooth speaker that looks like a rock
Its mono and was going for a 70s/80s warped movie sound track kind of sound.
Edit: Added a new mix. Y's Man im visualizing you doing a face palm. Still mixed on the same speakers but I think the new mix will be a little more to your liking.

Serious? Yes and no. its an attempt to achieve a certain sound ( that part is serious) on a blue tooth speaker ( this part is obviously not serious.)
Did the mix in a couple of hours, just for fun. Sounding like it was recorded through a mic was not the intended effect. Win some lose some.
Thanks for your candor. I’ll give it a listen on some real speakers when they get unpacked. I’m sure it’ll be shocking. It was still fun to take a break from the day to day and do some mixing, even if it was crap.
Thanks musretr0. That’s the sound I was going for. For whatever reason this track reminds me of old movie sound tracks that suffer from all the problems associated with old tape. Used Mello-fi on the master and automated wow, flutter and damage.
I understand the idea but retro and bad quality is a different thing, to me this sounds destroyed, not bashing the idea but theres no need to go this saturated i have 78s that sound better quality, i think once you get it on proper speakers you will get a better picture cause your other stuff sounds fine, i think it just went a little too far on this
Hey Y's Man, I dont discount anything you're saying. Just so you know Im more then happy to absorb any input given. no ego walls here. From Listening over phone speakers I could tell it was taken to far. To much of every thing really. The distortion was just the first thing to stick out amongst other things ( over doing the wow & flutter for example.) Ill try and get a more refined version up soon or back off the "retro" a bit.
