This track leaves a lot to be desired. I downloaded this to pop into my DAW to check out the levels and holy wow there's a lot of bass for being mastered at -0.2. So much where it would potentially damage speakers if pushed. With all that bass the compressor is ducking almost everything out but the high end and I can't pick up on any of the subtlety with the other layers. I think if you want this track to be a bit more lively I suggest going back in to your mix and letting things breathe. Less is more, friend. That being said nicely done otherwise.

I'm not sure what you're asking me to do, but thanks :). Maybe I'll try something safer with the subs after a short break.

A for effort. I can feel the emotions which inspired you. From a technical standpoint I can hear how your hesitation to sing is affecting the tonal quality. Nicely done, however, if you wanted it to have a little more impact I would not have hesitated with singing. In short go big or go home haha
Overall it was very lovely. You don't need autotune, just confidence!

Troisnyx responds:

I did my best, but confidence always has been a weak point of mine. I'd appreciate any advice / help you can offer me. Thank you for listening!

This mix is so slammed against the ceiling I can't even hear what's going on. Yuck dude let the track breathe.

Ultramartyr responds:

thanks for the input on a three year old track, i'll hop in my time machine to when i was bad at mixing and fix it.

Listen man this is really not that bad. But the mix needs some major work. My advice is to not be so critical. It sounds like you focus on all the small details of one part of the mix instead of the whole the entire time. If you're looking to be good and it's your dream take some criticism: The drums are flat, less distortion is more, the audio is clipping due to excessive treble. You have the right ideas in the wrong application. Composition was solid as hell though. Keep at it.

YaboiMatoi responds:

Thanks a lot for the constructive criticism.
I appreciate it a lot!
I'll keep the things in mind that you mentioned. Since this was my first attempt on seriously mixing distorted guitars I'll try to use it as a template to right my wrongs, when I'm done with the second run.
Thanks for pointing those things out.
Will keep them in mind.
Thanks a lot once again!

Your voice is really interesting. At first you sounded like Devin Townsend imitating DIO, which was really cool. Then you reminded me of something I'd hear from Dream Evil. Sounds cool.

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Crazy comparisons!! Icons. Fucking flattered! Not trying to sound like anyone, Just me. :) Glad you dig it!

It's really crisp and sounds decent. Reminiscent of Crash Bandicoot actually. Constructive criticism time: melody's a touch repetitive. Expand on writing and you'll do great.

kziki responds:

While i was making this song i didn't care that it was repetitive.... but now i regret it .-.

I'm an audio engineer, multi-instrumentalist and song writer. I favor heavy conceptual themes and heavier music.
