Hi ALR - thanks for taking the time to mix the track. There are a few fundamental things here to point out unless intentional (?)
* The solo guitar in the middle and end has been nudged out of time with the rest of the track * The lead vocal or bridge guitar has been nudged out of time I am thinking these are unintentional, as they aren't nudged onto a musical timing boundary. The drums sound mixed well, but they seem a bit loud - more prominent than the vocals. Try out chorus 2 - when I close my eyes, it's the drums I hear first. The bass frequencies seem to be understated - if you read Mike's article from March of this year, he pulls a lot of the 1-2k out of the bass part and does a shelf-boost at the lows. Might be worth a try. If you were going for a dry ambiance, then ignore this comment - the vocals and ambiance reverb seem a bit dry in general. If you were going for Rick Rubin style, then that's ok too I did like how you were trying to emphasize certain lines of the vocal with some kind of doubler - I liked the lines you chose, but I thought maybe try a cool delay or reverb wash instead. A taste comment I hope this is helpful - thanks again for taking the time to mix it ! Thomas
