Heavy song. This is a ground up remix.

[Freudian Slip]

Very cool, love the vox. Good tune, nicely done.



The whole tune reminds me of a 21st century Steppenwolf.

Thanks DavidK.

I'll have to check some newer Steppenwolf out. Only know the classics.


Guitarist wrote it and I tweeked the lyrics a hair. He writes pretty abstract lyrics

I think it sounds like a Steppenwolf-Doors....

It just kicks ass...what else can I say?

Ok dude, the song rocks.

BUT! You got to turn those guitars up just a little bit. I like the up front drums. The vox the bass and the drums are all right there in your face. The guitarist is missing slight presence. Just an opinion.

The vox is very powerful. I fits the style of the singing very well. The drums complement the vox really nicely.



Rock on!

Thanks for the prospective bigbubba I will give that some thought. I'll have to take a listen later and maybe mess with a slight bump up on the rythem guit' or a possible eq adjustment.

Thanks again

I have now replaced the original mix with the remix. So if you play Fairweather Friend you are hearing the remix version. I am looking at big's suggestion and at trying to make it a little louder with out killing the mix.


Thanks for the input from everyone.

Kudos on a such a good song in performance and in mix.

Hi True:

I am in the middle of a mix/master pull your hair out tweek session as we speak. I have done a couple versions that I am questioning. I applied a eq to the master that brings out the guitar quite a bit and also applied some eq to the rythem guit. Question is if I have made it to harsh. I like loud but I hate harsh. It's a tough order. I plan to thow up 3 or 4 mixes in a couple days and let people pick their favorite. I will leave the version that is up now in but I do think it's a bit to dark. I am at the fine line point now

as far as the rim clicks go. you are more than likely hearing hi hat. Our drummer does some funky hi hat stuff in this song with the hats closed. It may be a combo of HH and snare. He is a very good drummer and can pull off some cool stuff Sometimes I forget untill I listen to stuff and think wow.

Anyway, I will have a new thread up in a couple days or so titled something like pick the mix. I will load a few mixes on soundclick or my server and let you cast your vote

Have a great evening

Ok here's the latest

I brightened up the mix a bit and did some level adjustments.
I think it brought out the guitar more.

It's Fairweather Friend. The downloads are 320.

Let me know what you think. I have about 5 variations of this song. I think this is the brightest.


Thanks
