Hi!
Thanks for checking out my mix and for taking the time to comment, much appreciated!
I feel the snare is ok for my taste. I am thinking more 70's style funk and soul, rather than rock. I don't feel that the snare needs to be quite so up front and smashed for this track. The drums can take a bit more of a back seat to the vocals and horn section - I was quite pleased with how the horn section came across, anyway. I think the master bus compressor is doing a good job with the snare and vocal level balance. I suppose I am saying that the snare sound and level in the mix was a deliberate decision. Similar with the BV's - they are really good and I didn't want to bury them. Just my take - that's not to say I don't appreciate your view point as well.
Cheers!
