Hey Shul,
Thank you for this feedback and your appreciation for my mix.
Your reflection on toms is very interesting and it is indeed the most sensitive point of this title. Usually in a rock or pop song the rhythm is generally given in part to the drums in which the two driving elements are the snare and the kick. In the present case of "...Gypsy..." it is the toms which "replace" the snare. This is surprising but nothing more. So if we return the toms to their "standard" level in a drum kit, they will be less loud. And in this case the mix will become shaky because there is no driving rhythm line. Tests carried out in the car and with low quality headphones. Flagrant. In this sense I will leave my mix as is.
A reaction ?
Francis
