Patrick Talbot: 'Set Me Free'
#2
Hey Alexander, that's quite different! You opted for a rather wet spacious sound.
I suppose it's a taste thing but I'm not sure it serves this song the best.
The Rhodes is very effected and takes a lot of stereo space, making a lot of the instrumentation a bit blurry.
It's rather bad during the more driven moment when a cleaner/dryer sound would give more power IMHO.
The guitar and bgvs are also quite wet and I think you might want to lower the reverb level overall, perhaps make some sections drier than others? I have the impression of a big stadium sound from your mix and it loses some of the immediate power that I think suits the song more.
Hope that makes sense. As I said it's possibly a taste thing and I might be too used to hear this one drier, so I would seek other's opinions on that... but if I were to vote for a kind of sound, I wouldn't say yours has my preference.
Keep it up! Smile
