Maybe this is the problem.

Shoot for a day and half per song.

Will probably keep things fresher and keep you and those fellow "humans" you like on good terms. Spending 4 days on a song is a sure path to having your fellow 'humans" getting on your nerves by nitpicking every thing you do to death and keeping you from getting paid which is never a good thing.

By the way not having a lot of contact with humans is what i like best about mixing. I like not having any real emotional ties to a project. Makes it easier to let go and move on/not get attached to my own opinions.
