Colosso Mix Competition 2014

[DanLights]

a track with vocals would be more suitable for a competition,especially if you expect remixes.

I see no point in mixing this,it's just another instrumental for mixing practice. I've heard better ones here.What is gonna happen to winner's mix?
I doubt if anyone cares about the prize either.

Wow. Ever heard of instrumental music? It doesn't have to have vocals to be relevant. It's still a great song with a unique mix and a really cool challenge to mix.

Dude, then you´re in the wroooong place. It´s about getting better - improving. If you´re picky about it - just leave.

I will add fuel to the fire: this track is not just unsuitable for a competition,it is unmixable. The performance is not up to standard expected in this genre these days.

 

[Winston Wolf]

my point is that it would be beneficial to do proper tracking first,before pulling out this marketing bull.

 

[DanLights]

Marketing bull? It's free to enter, and it's for pure fun. Seriously, stop being such a dick and just don't post anything. I haven't checked the files but listening to the mix it doesn't sound like the playing is bad. You're an insufferable asshole and seem to enjoy it, get over yourself.

 

[Deathprayer82]

the tracking isnt bad. i would love to have not only one mic for snare, but you can blend samples anyway....

 

[shaggysi0]

Here is my mix for you folks here:-



Kick and Snare are blended with samples from my library. Toms are all natural. Used the re-amped guitars that came with the files with some post-processing. Added a distortion track to the bass, making 3 tracks, all processed differently. Very little done to vocals or FX, just volume adjustment. Hope you like it!

 

[Jesseblast]

Hello, here is my mix:




Drums and bass were quite easy to mix. I blended some sample on snare, but otherwise it's all natural with lots of automation. However, I didn't achieve the clarity from the guitars I wanted.
Not much processing on FX tracks nor choirs, I used high pass and fair amount of reverb to push them back.

Fell in love with this song really quickly..

Just did a mix and added some freestyle over the song:

Question to the other mixes - how do you get the guitars sounding so big?

 

[Dollarosa]

My first mix. Everything original except snare, which is a blend. Still need to cut the Tom bleed as it was a quick edit. Used amp guitars
