Zargg 325 Posted May 12 (edited) A new mix is up. I got some feedback in another forum that the choruses and bridges lacked separation and clarity, and that the snare was too thin. I have tried to fix those things as best I could. This is an old song of mine, I finally got around to recording and mixing. Feedback is appreciated. NEVER Verse 1: You tell me that I don't see the things I ought to see. My vision of the world's not the same that it's for you. Bridge: Verse 2: You don't want me to think, 'cause you think that part is yours. My free mind's not a part of the part you planned for me. Chorus: Never! I will not be you. Never! Verse 3: You say my life's an illusion, 'cause I don't see your truth. Well I prefer my illusions, before I see your truth. No! Chorus 2: Verse 4: You always wanted to change me into something I'm not. I alwasys had my own life, still you want me to be like you. Chorus 3: Bridge 2: Solo: I will! Chorus 4: Edited May 20 by Zargg Added lyrics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wookiee 1,749 Posted May 16 Interesting piece of metal? (is it metal or a sub genre) to start the day. Mix works well here on the Event's. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freddy j 600 Posted May 16 Cool song with a bit of an edge. The guitar riff panned center and vocals (well the soft parts) remind me a wee bit of Bowie. Good performance and the mix keeps every thing well separated! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wookiee 1,749 Posted May 21 @Zargg I have come back for another listen to this revised mix, I am not sure what the differences are as I have had so much happening here my mind is furrier than normal. Consequently what I am not about to say might be a a whole bunch of fetid dingo's kidneys. The vocal sounds a more pulled back in the mix but with more definition/clarity, the top end slap of the Kick is more obvious, which will help to those listening on buds and the like. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for another listen, and feedback John. I will check to see if the vocals are where they should be. The slap on the kick is as you say, for listeners with phones etc. I was also told the verse guitar needs a little 1 kHz, so will do those things together. All the best.

Zargg 325 Posted May 22 New mix is up with a bit more vocals, and a touch of 1.2 and 3.2 kHz boost on the verse guitar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
