Remember December Hanibal Style
#1
The thing about a song like this is you know just about how it should sound. There are a few guitar and bass edits/fixes I could have made but that is work and this mix is for fun. Let me know what you think. Thanks

Hey man, take a look at how much you're limiting. I know things are smashed these days, but there's a lot of distortion in your track. Especially noticeable when that sub bass drop hits. There's a great free plugin called TT Dynamic Range Meter. Throw it on your master at the very end. On average it, could be argued that you're being reasonable around 8-9 in the dynamic range area, or taking like max 3db off from limiting. Things are mashed these days though. Take a look at the Dynamic Range Database and see what some of your fav albums look like. The more headroom you give yourself in your tracks too = more depth and cleaner tracks, making it easier on any plugins that you're using. Watch out for red lining everywhere.

Cheers
