I recently came across a SUPER chilling 911 call and decided to make a short track with it in the background. I do realize the guitar isn't all that creative, but that's because I've hardly touched guitar in my life ;P. Just thought I'd see if anyone had any constructive criticism mix-wise!

And here's another that I used the same templates and processed everything the same way. My friend did guitar and I think there's a few notes that are off, but it was something we threw together really quickly haha.

dude, first of all, that phone call is messed up. second, im digging the guitars actually, there are a lot of people on here who think it should sound a certain way just because, but i like it. If there is a bass in there, i cant really hear it. that would make the guitars rip up even more. The snare needs a smidge less poppiness imo, but i like the kick a lot, maybe try to add some lower frequencies to it, get it to cut through. overall though dude its pretty nasty, i like it.
 
very life less both song. pan them more. Guitars sound very low volume. snare is louder than everything.
 
The guitars are hard left and right haha. But yeah, I always tend to focus on the drums more, since I am a drummer lol. And yes, the call is super messed up haha. It was the only thing I could find on YouTube that wasn't some stupid, cheesy fake call lol. Thanks for the input guys! :]
