Hey there friend! Quite liking the approach you took! The only criticisms I would have are that the vocals tend to get a bit buried. I would personally emphasize the vocals a little more. If you're eqing, pushing up that 1.5k to 2k region. Remember, every instrument is sharing that very fundamental 200hz to 1khz region. Scoop some of that out in the orchestral tracks and the synths, maybe bring the highs of the guitar (maybe 4k to 8k) down just a smidge. Those changes will help with balance in the frequencies immensely. I think the lead tone is GREAT but could potentially also be a little more boosting in the 2k region.
Overall, the balance and framework are definitely there with v4, it just needs some mostly corrective EQ to make it feel a little more open. That openness will translate to a much larger feeling mix where the elements click into place as opposed to stepping around each other a little bit.
IN my stream, I kind of over-exaggerated that aspect of the mix, but overall I think the idea is still there. Find some more space for everything and you'll be really well off!
On second listen, there may also be some overall buildup at 600hz and 200hz. Address those with dynamic eq on instruments that buildup there. That's pretty important I think. Your mix WILL feel louder without those resonant buildups.
Snare sounds really cool and the vocals have a nice tone to them. The vocals just feel buried at times.
Thank you for your mixes! I have enjoyed them, and I hope there's a v5!!
