Hey there!
Thanks for checking it out. I remember I spent quite some time attempting to crack this one, and couldn't quite get it to where I wanted it. For me I feel it's quite a tricky vocal delivery to mix? I really haven't figured out the secret yet to get it all working.
For me vocal doesn't quite match up to the power of the instrumental backing, and it seems tricky to get it there. Maybe I need to play around with saturation and eq or something a bit more.
I feel the same about the library mix of the 'This Town' track on here too. The vocal on that seems to kind of trail off into the backing track at the end of each phrase, and again doesn't seem to quite have the power to keep up with the backing track. I'm not quite sure how to fix that in the mix yet - which put me off trying that one. Might just be my taste though I suppose. I do think the tracks and concepts themselves are excellent though. I just can't figure out the vocals! Frustrating.
Yeah, I agree with you regarding the chorus. Looking at the waveform I think all the levels need dialling back a bit so I can give the chorus sections more of a volume boost relative to the verses - and also give it a bit of breathing room and not hit the limiter so much.
Cheers!
