X-53mph Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Track 4 of my upcoming Ep is now live - Sleeping Dogs Lie https://53mph.bandcamp.com/track/sleeping-dogs-lie A Dobro/piano end-of-evening chill-out track. I'm playing the Dobro and Slide, but I got to use a lot of new toys in this one - Trilian, Drum Fury, Iris 2, and the Kontakt 6 Library Ethereal Earth (nice). Hope you enjoy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 There is something about the overall sound that feels little off, perhaps over compressed I do not quite know and then it ended and this rumble played on for a good 10 seconds. Nice tune, some very pleasant playing but I think the mix needs a little revisit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice tune, some very pleasant playing but I think the mix needs a little revisit. Thanks wookiee, I'm mastering using Ozone Standard, and trying to EQ match it to other tracks in the EP, that may have coloured the sound too much. The rumble is intentional - I like using atmospheric sounds, but perhaps it goes on too long - I'll go back to the master stage and see if I can shorten it.

PhonoBrainer Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Super chill, the dobro adds the old-school to the nu school. Very cool comp. For me the bass needs a dip cut somewhere around 250hz maybe? It's eating a lot of the energy of this track, maybe the higher end elements will benefit from less bass presence in the mix. YMMV and I'm wrong a lot. but excellence in chill. cheers, -Tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
