Other than your mixes being off, it's good stuff, Kev. You've stepped your game up a lot.

Clockwork is nice with it. I've got a couple beats from him on my new project.

I thought my mix was alright but what would u suggest to fix this problem? Do you think it's my ears, equipment etc?

Clock is nice man he's got a nice following i've actually got 5 joints from him man..i dunno he is the most consistent for my style and he's a good kid on top of it.

Rambling on...sorry

Well any suggestions on the mix from anyone would be great the only thing i could think of is maybe my vox are a lil loud


thanks in advance.

its def. that your voice is too loud..yo jsut a quick suggestion, i think your voice would sound really dope with a resonance filter and maybe some more mid eqs thats about it..you tell stories very well son i'll tell you that right now

It's hard to be specific as MySpace kills MP3 quality.. but... Yes, your vox are a few db too loud. They don't sit in the mix like they should. Unless you purchased beats from Clock, I assume your recording over stereo tracks. Harder to get right, but not impossible. I'd suggest lowering your vox by a few db, exporting your mixdown and run it through a parametric EQ, sweeten the midrange and low end, give a bit of brightness on top, and then run it through a compressor at maybe, 3:1 setting with a high threshold so your only pushing a bit on the track... that should help meld the vox and beat together better.

Word.

Damn man all good tips! I'm going to mix this after I get the lp done. When you say run it through a paremetric eq do you mean just the vox or the whole joint? If thats a dumb question sorry i just want to take care of business. Thanks change you always know what your talkin about so if you give advice I def listen.

Peace,

Not the vocals, the stereo mixdown of your whole track. Run that through the Para EQ, and the compressor.

[chalin27]

[bknot1]
