Here's the song:

Nerve End - Arsonist


You can download the stems here: http://nerveend.com/mp3/Nerve_End_-_Arsonist_-_Stems.zip
Guitar and bass DI-files, drum-midi: http://nerveend.com/mp3/Nerve_End_-_Arsonist_DI-tracks.zip (exported from a different session, you may have to re-align them manually, sorry :()

The song tempo is 125. Feel free to check also the guitar-pro file. I converted the stereo waves to a mp3s since I bet no-one wants to download a ~500 gb zip-file. You can find some detailed info about the mix in this video, it's another song, but the presets are almost identical:

All feedback is welcome, but bear in mind that this is my first 'real' recording. You can download rest of the songs for free at nerveend.com

I don't have Guitar Pro... anyone wanna give me the midi file?

Also... any chance of the Lead Guitar DI's?
 
Holy fuck. Who's on vocals?

It's me singing.

I might export them later, I just have find the session where I recorded the solo ...goddamn, I should update my PC so I'd have the resourses to record and mix everything in a same session.

FUCK YES! I love your band man, I'm the one who emailed you about the GP stuff a while back. Still spinning the album regularly, can't wait to mix this!

Thanks! That's super nice to hear!
 
Amazing music! Your voice is great!!!
Just bought the CD from your website.
I hope to get it soon... :)

Thanks! We'll ship the cd tomorrow.

Awesome music man.
Here's my stab at mixing this song. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1980982/Mp3/Nerve - Arsonist quikymix.mp3
I didn't get to mess with the vocals yet and haven't touched the synths at all.
What do you guys think?

The low-end is a bit overpronounced for my taste. I dig the sound on the solo, I think it's actually better than the original.

Oh my bad, I like to mix with a ton of low-end. Perhaps it was a bit too much here, still trying to figure that out. I'm pretty happy how the guitar tones came out.
I Downloaded the EP , really killer songs you guys have! The band shirt looks awesome too.
 
1 hour mix. Still have to fix some cymbals cause i´m using ssd. Rythm guitars are le456, all other tracks are your stems.

First time I've heard my voice autotuned =D Also the vocals are like half a second out of sync, sounds drunk as fuck :D Other than that, I like the snare. The overall sound is a bit too digital for my taste. Thanks for the effort!
 
Sing for my band. k?

I'm listening to your songs on myspace atm. Really tight stuff! I'm all into the idea of doing feat. tracks. I might be too busy to do a whole track, but if you ever need a new flavor for a certain part of the song, just ask.

...also, your mixes sound really, really good! Professional sound with limited gear = instant boner everytime.
