DarkRide - Deny Control mix and master

[Blitzzz]

I was a bit afraid of your answer because I didn't know if you would be upset. It's never easy to be criticized, especially if you put your own free time into something without getting anything for it. As for the drums: Might be a good idea to listen to them without the rest and take notes of all the small details that might be worth a shot in the spotlight. As far as I can remember, I did several automation passes for the drums, just to bring special cymbal hits, tom rolls or ghost notes into the forefront of the mix for a brief moment. Doing fader rides on this track felt extremely rewarding, because you have the rare opportunity to highlight some of the crazy stuff Dirk is playing. This will give the listener something new to discover every time he listens to the song. Just don't overdo it, or you will end up with a "Listen how good I can play my instrument"-type of song.
