I put a tune up on my page a while back and the mix was really bright. It was from my first mixes and my frame of reference was way off.
I don't plan to regurgitate all of my new mixes of old tunes on this board but, I need help on this one. I'm wondering if I added too much low end to the mix. I would appreciate some input, because I'm still set up to mix this tune. I know the mix on the voices is far from perfect and the toms sound like crap and I'll address that next time I mix but I'm really wondering what you guys think EQ- wise.
Specifically: Is the bass too loud or too bassy? and is the kick drum loud enough.
These are the two things I'd like you guys to listen for but any input on the mix or the song will be appreciated
The song's called "Where's That Gonna Get You?"

Also, I have another tune that I never posted here because I was a little ashamed of the production and the tune itself is kind of retro sounding and I've been told it wasn't my best work, but it is a rock tune and I don't do a whole lot of those so if your curious, it's called "Seventeen Candles" and it's one of the last songs on my page, if not the last one.
Let's recap, because a lot of people just read the last lines of long posts such as this one. (which i am becoming famous far) I have a tendency to ramble.
"Where's that Gonna get You" - I need help on the mix particularly the bass and kick
"Seventeen Candles" - listen if your curious and at your own risk (there is a killer solo at the end of the tune, 2nd guitar solo) so it may be worth checking out for some of you.

Ok carry on, you guys
