Great job on the drums! You also got the vox to sit nicely in the mix. I have been struggling with this for a few hours. I like what you did with it.

Great Job Cudjoe! I like what I hear and have to agree in regards to the great drum sound! Overall the mix moves along nicely. A couple of things come to mind while listening. First I think the backing vocals could have a bigger roll, maybe panning and possible chorusing or some other effect. They sound like they are just layered on top of the main vocal and aren't defined enough for me is the position. The other main thing for me is with the extra guitar build during the chorus parts of the song. Although I like the added intensity, they are a little mid frequency strong. I think they would benefit with the mid scoop 800 - 1.5k I'm guessing, just to soften them a little. This will clear up some space for the vocal through this passage also.

A couple of minor things really. Well Done bloke!Big Grin

Hey there !

Pretty nice mix ! The kick and snare lack some body however. You can boost some dB at 55-60 Hz for kick and 160-200 Hz for the snare. They will have more punch.
Once done, your mix will sound more balanced I guess.
