Blood To Bone

[bmullen]

Hi,

just some thoughts while I'm listening to your mix:

I do not really like the kick's sound. Now that is to big parts the problem of the raw kicktrack, which does not sound especially pretty to begin with. But I wonder if a different tonal shaping would help in this regard during the intro/verses. It seems to work during the chorus, though.

The snare sounds a bit too flat/papery. Again, that is a source problem, but perhaps you can work on it?

The guitars sound rather hollow and indirect to me, I miss a bit of warmth and energy. I know that it is there, but it is hidden in the phase issue that this guitar tracks happen to be delivered with.

The balance sounds rather good, though. I like the vocals.

Cheers

Thanks for taking the time to evaluate this track and for the excellent input. Eq is the area I need the most work on I believe so this is helpful. I will spend some time trying to implement your suggestions
