Indie Rock- Check it out

[xmostynx]

check this one out instead.

[Audio Hombre]

sounds like everything has had the crap comped out of it. the bass has lost all definition and is basically a ball of wool. i'd check your release times on the kik snare or drum group. they sound too slow. the drums could use some timing work also, but the slow release seems to help throw them out even more.

guitars are a little grainy. they work for the lo-fi intro but sound a little deflated.

the song is pretty good though. i kinda liked it.

i am using barely ANY compression...

ughhhh

i can't get away from digital audio sounding compressed..

hows this one sound?

trying so hard to open this mix up...

Two things...

the rhythm guitar in the first 8 bars is pretty far out of tune - the G# at the top of the chord is really sharp.

The mix feels very narrow. I hit it with the Flux stereo tool, widening it a bit and it really opened up. Not saying the fix is in artificial stereo widening, just that it's narrow in the mix.

The singer sounds great.

i have things panned out so far in pro tools..
i just can't get that console sound..

overheads are 100% left and right, guitars are out there 68-80% right, 75% left...??


how would i open this up more?
