Howdy,
I think that this is my first post in this forum/clinic. Well.. this is my first semi-serious post anyhow.
I've recorded two songs for a competition. The competition are looking more for the words than the recording, however I don't want to give them a dud recording.
The two songs can be found here. They are Feelings Don't Just Disappear and Forever, Together, Just You and Me.
I have semi left these mixes to the last minute...well last week at least . I mixed these last night and since listening to them this morning on my speakers at work (which for me tend to show a different version of the truth) and have found a couple of mixing issues which I've outlined below. I was just wanting to get some more feed back on the mixes. I'd appreciate to hear your responses.
Issues in the mixes:
Feelings Don't Just Disappear
Drums - Bring their levels up a little
Bass - needs to be a little more punchy (compress)
Vocals - need to be brought up more in the last verse (ride the fader)
Forever, Together, Just You And Me
Guitar - needs to be brought up in the mix
Vocals - in bridge need to be brought down a little
I would usually have re-mixed and re-posted, however I might run out of time... thanks in anticipation.
