Finally, a few days off over the new years long weekend to have a play.
Apologies first, I'm not sure I've followed any of the artist directives. I just started mixing and got lost in my own ideas. I've moved a couple of things around. As Mike mentioned, the whistle and clap parts are too good to leave just for the ending. The rhythm guitar was probably the trickiest part for me to place. Muting it seemed to just leave a void that I wasn't happy with, so it's basically run it's course through the song. Most other elements were workable.
Listening to the mix with fresh ears I'm hearing lots of little editing issues that should be tidied up in any following passes. Snare over kick drum, now theres a curve ball I didn't see coming.
Anyways, thank you to Hannes Keseberg. A great track that was super fun to mix.
Happy New Year!
Dave
