Heavy rock'n'roll / hxc song extract

SLy_drums · 21st February 2006

Here's a quick song we've recorded in the studio to test the new gear we got a few days ago.

Download here :

The mood is heavy rock, dirty sounding (a la Converge) song. The parts are impro so don't judge it too quickly

The snare is too loud, and it pumps a little when I put the limiter on, but i'll EQ the guitars to make them less mediumish.

You can post what you think, any advices etc.

A second mix, where the drums are more present, and therefore less meds in the guitars :

The whole mix feels to mid-dense for the style you are going for (i think), not enough tops or lows. Maybe do a quick A/B with a converge track?

Thanks Guerilla,

i want to get something more medium-typed / warm sounding than Converge, after a few tests on the guitars and drums, this is the result :

This is quite what I expected. I used the C3 multiband comp ont the master section.
