If the customer wants a bass heavy mix i suggest that they high pass (to taste)
all non bass sounds thus giving the bass and kick drums more space.I have an elliptical eq on my Phillips mastering desk(70's)That can tame 99% of the out of phase bass that i have to cut,Ok this mono's the bass(either 150 or 300 hz) but most of my work is in the dance genre so these very low out of phase bass sounds would not translate in a club enviroment anyway.
