Awesome Ray. I'm glad it works. Thanx buddy.RAMI,
I LOVE the way the toms mark out the stereo image/soundstage thingemybob.
Tight as a RAMI tune and the guitars have a gnarly goodness too.
Terrific stuff.
Thanx a lot Gek. I might bring the vocals up in that case. More than one person has mentioned it, and it's all been people who's ears I trust.Awesome! It's a kind of progressive retro-contemporary fusion of something. Everything on this is tight-as, and that really works to the track's advantage.
I do like the use of reverb . . . and I'm pleased to see it being used so well. Someone one did say that the vocals could come up a bit, and I agree with this. The first reason is that as I listen, my impression of the stereo picture is that the singers are located behind the band, and I'l like to hear them brought forward. The second reason is that they are so competently convincing they deserve to be heard a bit more.
I was listening to this album a lot around the time of mixing it, and wanted to get sort of that slightly buried lead vocal feel. Take a listen to a few seconds of this, when the vocals come in. The whole album is like this, and I really like it:
