Colour Me Red - my mix

[Mixinthecloud]

This is an odd one. I really like your content but I think the general space you placed it in makes it hang in an environment I do not think works well for the genre of the song or your mix of it. Too big, me thinks. Some of the effects on your vocal may be interesting but you seem a bit timid with them. I'd say be bolder. Good ideas so go for it.

Thanks for the encouragement! You maybe perfectly right when you suggest to be bolder. Sometimes it´s hard to say when to be bold and when to be subtle, guess that has a lot to do with experience...
So in terms of the "space thing" you tell me i´ve been too bold? :-)
Wanted to steer that thing in a more modern rock direction, maybe i went a bit overboard...

Thanks anyway, appreciate that!

My bolder statement was about some of the special effects you threw into the mix. Did you realize those effects completely the way you heard them in your head? I kind of got a 'let me try this and see how it sounds' which I do a lot of too. I just get the feeling you didn't quite finish your thought, so to speak. But I heard germs of some good ideas. As for the more modern rock feel you were going for, I think you got it.

The second mix is sonically excellent, and I dig the way you layered the guitars. I still don't quite get the special effects on the lead during the chorus.
