Just wanted to say a massive congrats to Jordan (jval) for such a great job on the Counterparts. Had it on repeat pretty much every day.

This is a band I'm working with at the moment, need some other ears on this

Not EVERYTHING is edited yet

I didnt enjoyed listening to it... very annoying in my ears
it has no mids at all... and the high are annoying in the guitars , drums and VOCALS

bring some mids and lows to even out the freqs...
good luck

Scooped to fuck and very digital. The drums don't sound like drums to me...

Either your monitors are broken or you mixed this with very tired ears, I usually end up with this result if I sit for too long without taking a break. You boost some treble and say to yourself "Oh that's crisp!". Then you sit for a while and your ears adapt and then you add a little more treble. Repeat infinite number of times.

But definitely has potential! Like the material!

Too much scooping on everything, the kick's tooooooooo clicky. The snare sounds really weird.

 

[RichMinerva]

yeah dude very fatiguing for my ears

new mix bump!

Let me know what you think. Improvement or still sucky?

The second mix is much, much better than the first. The toms sound like they have too much high-end and are too scooped, same with the kick. The vocals are also a bit loud.

on the good way but you can do more! It sounds like when I mix on my "every day" headphones. Try to listen to it on a shitty pc's speaker, it will boost what is wrong

updated mix

sounds good but i personally think the mix could benefit from bigger kick/snare. but other than that it sounds good

 

[rchoi54]

Dude nice! If you removed some noise from the rhythm guitars this would sound even better.
