I have a few songs on my soundclick that I have done lately. Wondering if anyone could critique my mixes, and tell me what they would do differently with them, and what I did good.

Also leave a link to some of your music and Ill give my input on yours.

Please be honest, my feelings arent easily hurt.

To My music

Check out "Fear Factor"
 
Ok, here we go...

1. Less reverb on the vocal tracks
2. Don't be afraid to turn the vocals up a bit
3. Try to double up your chorus tracks, it'll give you that thick sound, just don't forget to even out the sound with panning
4. Verses are tite, but the doubles on them are off along with the fact that there are drop outs on the lead vocals at some points. best way to solve that is some cut and move
 
Thanks Rnb, I can hear where I was adding too much reverb too. I put my reverb in at the end so ear fatigue may be the culprit cuz I am like "what was I thinking."
 
I like Fear Factor the best.

In terms of the mix i'd like to hear the strings come up a bit. It would help especially when the chord change comes in to distinguish the notes better and give a fuller more distinguished beat. The drums sound fine, but I just thought the snare sounded a little thin. Not necessarily volume wise but if you used a different sound for it. It sounded kind of "cheap" for lack of a better word (if that helps)

Nothing to say about the flow, it's very good, wouldn't change it. Although the double vocals could be cut a bit, as in a little less of it.

Overall all nice mix, keep it up
 
Thanx jimmie, Ill work on that snare, I know what u mean
 
Not really a critique on the mix, but I think fear factory would sound great with acoustic drums.

With more of a snare line, a driving roll of sorts.

You should call up Travis Barker, I'm sure he's cheap.
 
Yo I would love to do a remix to the beat to that . Just for kicks man if you down send be the vocals and the BPm.

I'm feeling that track. I'm not as nice as these other Kats in here but like I said I would love to have a shot at freaking the beat to that !!!

The mix was cool too I agree with what has been posted. overall nothing jumped out that was really bad just a few touch ups as mentioned !
 
You got some good songs going on there. 1 small critique for your mix is that you might want to consider some transition sounds or transition drum patterens( ex. a cymbal crescendo, snare roll, bass roll, or chimes) when going form the verse to the hook, and vice versa. They give dymanics to the transitions.
 
yea dog that fear factor joint is tight. i agree that maybe the drum line could use a little bit of help and its a little hard to tell the hook from the verses. but other wise everything sounds ill. you remind me of this up and coming cat saigon.

did i see on your page that youre in raleigh? im from charlotte and my brother lives in g-boro. someday we should get up and collabo.
 
thanks alot everybody, I get lazy on them transitions man, gotta master that transition thing.
