Hi Mixinthecloud, NewtonThomas
I can't quite agree with you.  I do not believe that these tracks were mixed before, the keyboards sound like factory synth presets and the same goes for bass.  So there is definitely room for micro dynamics, eliminating overlapping frequencies and making depth in the mix.  Of course it is easier to do this when every element in the mix is ​​separated, but with these kind of tracks you do not think so much about, for example, you don't think about what the drum sound will be like, but immediately go to the thing and go on, solving bigger problems in the mix.
And I very much support the channel strip mixing idea.

Nikola,
If you enjoy the idea of mixing pre-mixed tracks I strongly suggest you check out and subscribe to MixTheMusic, if you have not done so already. This is a new product offered in partnership with PreSonus which has contracted almost all major catalogue holders and all genres of music and theater. They can be found at https://www.mixthemusic.com.

Personally, I feel handcuffed by pre-mixed tracks and as a studio and live sound professional I want as much control and challenge as can be offered. But, to each, his/her own.
