Hi!
Thanks for checking it out!
I dunno, some of those top end elements (like that cymbal-y thing) don't bother me too much right now, but I did note from your mix that knocking those back a bit does kind of help some. I do like that ride/909ish hat sample. I might try cranking it a bit later and see if the top end does take my head off though!
I did start off with the idea of keeping the bass up there, but maybe I lost the way a bit. I found the kick kind of a bit of a struggle due to how it is - it's more kind of vibey than punchy as such.
I wasn't really thinking that much about the chorus as I feel the backing vocals kind of fill that out - more about the difference between the intro and the first verse. I did knock the DT track down a bit from where I had it, so maybe I can duck it a bit more. At one point I did think about whether to get rid of it entirely or not.
Cheers!
