Hi all,

Wrote and recorded this song over this weekend. The song is inspired by what's going on in Venezuela. Second verse still needs to be recorded. Feedback on the mix is most welcome:

I Won't Go! by Jonathan Linton 4 | Free Listening on SoundCloud

I WON’T GO!
(Words by Jonathan Linton, Music by Jonathan Linton)

I am immortal
I wield the power in my hand
Some call me forceful
Necessary evil to rule the land
Protesters, foreign aggression
Won’t buy my grand vision
Short term pain and starvation
Makes for a stronger nation

No, no, no, no…..
No, no, I won’t go
So enjoy the puppet show
Immortal reign
I’ll watch your pain
Sipping champagne
No, I won’t go

Foreign investors
Came and tried to rape the land
From our ancestors
So I nationalized the motherland
Protesters, foreign aggression
Don’t buy my grand vision
Short term pain and starvation
Makes for a better nation

No, no, I won’t go
So enjoy the puppet show
Immortal reign
I’ll watch your pain
Sipping champagne
No, I won’t go

No, no, no, no, no……

SOLO

No…..
No, no, I won’t go
So enjoy the puppet show
Immortal reign
I’ll watch your pain
Sipping champagne
No, I won’t go
No, I won’t go
So enjoy the puppet show
Immortal reign
I’ll watch your pain
Sipping champagne
No, I won’t go

I thought the vocal sounded very good. Guitar tone was good.

I think the vocals are a little buried behind the guitars.

The drum kit sounds unnaturally wide during the tom rolls.

Something seem a little off in the intro. Like the guitars are slightly out of tune with each other.
 
The ride has some really clicky and harsh attacks every once in a while.

I agree with trip that the vox are a little buried.

Otherwise, it seems a decent mix.
 
Has an AIC vibe coming through. I like it a lot. No mix complaints on headphones. Vocals and BVs are great. Nice job
