Forkupines - Sleep By The Fire, Bloom In water Mix by Ak3r

[Ak3r]

You have the makings of a nice mix here. If I'm being critical, the level of the kick is a little bit too high in comparison to the rest of the mix. If you listen at a low level also you will notice this more. The tone of the drums overall is nice. The guitars are a bit fatiguing, you could try a de-esser to get rid of some that high frequency squeal and perhaps a slight mid-range boost to thicken them up a bit. Overall, nice one.

Thanks for your comment !! Yeah i guess the kick could be a lil lower, my aproach is that u need to hear nicely the kick and snare as they are the ones that carry the rythm section. About the guitar's i might try the de-esser and see how it works .I found that all the guitars had a weird zone around 700hz...that made them sound hollow if u put them all together, and you can hear that in almost all the mixes. I boosted a little bit the low end and cut on purpose that mid-range and used more the 2nd track of each guitar as it had some sweet sounding high frequencies so overall the mix sound cleaner and tighter but sure i can try to give some more body to the guitars.

Cheers
