Marcus Boeltz: 'Shut Up And Play'

[thedon]

I agree with the posts here, i think that the mix is a bit mono. But one thing i like is that you got the good type smashed sound with distortion instead of that ugly compression that makes stuff so harsh, really makes mono glue nicely and making bass elements pop upfront more. I like that you kept the hammond in mono, sounds so uggly keeping that instrument wide, don't see the point really... "wow its cool its wide", but does a hammond sound cohesive in sidechannels??? no its only because its phasey and flangey in that area it might sound a bit cool, but really it makes the image of the whole mix make you feel seasick. Also i like that you managed to keep the mix bright sounding without it being nasty and at the same time has a nice lowfy vintage tone to it, not overclamped distortion on the masterbus or anything. It is though maybe a bit too flat and needs somethings a bit more forward and punchy but otherwise i'd listen to this monomix a thousand times over before a wide uncohesive and poky mix! goodjob.

Thanks for having a detiled listen and the feedback Version 2 coming soon !

Cheers
