Here's a version, I really dig this song. Reminds me of Aqueduct and They Might Be Giants.

Very clear mix! Nice song too. The kick seems to suck the air out of it though, maybe an effect of compression?

Happens to me too, some weird psychological thing I guess. Nowadays I try to find a comfortable tempo and add like 5bpm because I know it's gonna feel slower the next day.

Hey burgundy good to see you man! Yeah I’m listening a few days later and I think I just have the guitars too hot in general. Already reset my board though so I think I’ll live with it on this one, something to know for the next one. . .

The guitar that comes in around 1:08 doesn’t seem to have a lot of sustain. I don’t know if you can change that in the mix but it seems to take a bit from the energy of the track. I really like the vibe of the track though.

Not much mixing you can do when you only have the one track, but maybe you could use the amp eq to let the vocal through better. Maybe lowering the treble and/or presence would give the vocal more space.

It sounds good to me. Nice mix too.

Lowered a loud guitar and tuned a couple lines.

Thanks man! Yeah everything was a struggle haha. Maybe the hardest parts were getting the vocal and bass right. Took several days of attempts to get those sounding okay.

Something different this time, a sort of trucker song based on a movie I watched. :) Let me know what sticks out. . .

As an indie rock fan, I can say this is a pretty good summary of indie rock.

Thanks for your feedback guys, I'm glad the mix isn't the primary issue at least. I do love the sound of a dry kit and bass!

Sounds real nice to me, I don't think the layers are overwhelming at all. There are some occasional guitar squeaks that sound like they could be cleaned up a bit.

Yeah it seems a little wooly to my ears. Maybe you could try a low-mid cut in the drums? I’ve had this struggle before, I’m not sure what I did in particular to solve it though. Are the drums live or vst?

Lend me your fresh ears please. . . Thanks!
