2ndMOUSE -- "Lightworks" ( dreamy rhodes + idm beats)

[seismic1]

I bet everybody has a slightly different opinion on this

I liked the bass, I thought the HF on the percs gave the track a sound that was very lively, but masked (maybe through distraction) some of the subtlety of what was going on in the lower frequency ranges. This is probably just a personal preference. I'll play it again on the main system on Saturday, and see whether I feel the same.

I havent quite mastered sidechaining yet so I usually have things ducking that I dont want to duck and I usually have a limiter on the master to make up some gain and glue it all together a bit , but still things gets a bit lost in there , especially in a higher tempo track cos everything is closer together with less space to breathe. Its definitely a balancing act and choices become much more judicial over time. Id love to see what someone like bob katz would do with one of my mixes though....he'd probably be dismayed at my signal chains =p

I was referring to the glitched HF between 0:45 and 3:00. I thought maybe that could come down by 2-3dB, but after listening to this at a decently loud volume, I'm not so sure. It seems to "fit" better.

Very peaceful intro. Drums are catchy too. Strange those sounds working together, but they do.

Nice track.

I tend to use opposites quite a bit in my music , and not sure why
