Drums were very challenging, I am so new at this that I had hardly any samples available to me, so I had to dig online for freebies to use. Easier to find them, than to find the one that sounded correct to my ears. I still think the bass drum is a bit heavy. I have to mix on headphones, so my mixes sometimes end up a bit mid strong. I had to remix the final 3 times using other references before settling on this one. As with anything I do, I never feel like I'm finished with it, there is just so much you can do, but preserving the artists concept is the most important thing, so I know when its time to put the brakes on, at least I think I do. This is why I love mixing music, a thousand different ideas, and none of them are really wrong, its all about how you perceive it.
