I really enjoyed mixing this track, but it did come with its challenges!
I'm fairly comfortable with Pop Punk and instinctively got an idea in my head of how I wanted this track to sound when pulling up the faders.
I did replace the Kick and Snare on this one simply because they weren't giving me the super energetic and aggressive sound I was after. Other than that it was rather plain sailing (for me), but I did take a fair bit of time to sculpt a vibe for the Intro section, just so that when the full band came in you really felt things step up a notch!
As ever any feedback positive or negative is 100% welcomed, I'm still relatively new to the forum and will be delving into the other posts to see what I can learn from everyone else's mixes!
Here's a little idea of how I setup my session:
