OK - I did Birth Pains. I think it's probably the best mixed one so far. It may even inspire me to revisit some of the older ones....

Birth Pains of Astral Projection

 

[FrostGiant]

This one sounds damn good. Awesome spacing in that mix, especially down towards the end. I would have liked the clean vocals to be a little louder though.

 

[FalseTodd]

Me too. I would have also liked them to be in tune. On account of, then I would have mixed them up. Sorry Toby.

 

[FrostGiant]

Gotchya.

 

[Demonspell]

Birth pains live...this should make up for 48 hours without access to UM

 

[Baliset]

yay birth pains!

i think at this point in the set my guitar was starting to stay in tune...

 

[FrostGiant]

Listening to Birth Pains again, drunk. Excellent. I really need to see this Madelin of the Wall band live, whoever they are. They need to play Wisconsin sometime in the near or distant future. I have a hard time getting out to Cali and Baaaston.

 

[FrostGiant]

Ok, this may be a drunken opionion...But even though the vox may be somewhat out of tune (I really only noticed cuz you pointed it out), I think you could give it an extra dB. I say this as someone who doesn't quite know the lyrics to this song yet. And I think if you would raise it a tad, just enough so you don't have to search for what's being sung, it would do well. As long as it's not the focal point of that particular section I don't think there would be a problem. Maybe you tried it already and it didn't work. It's hard to know without actually hearing it.

BTW, sorry to bring this up again, but I think the clean vocals add so much to the atmosphere of the song the way they're done. I had the same issue with MFP...ASC at times.

 

[FalseTodd]

I'll totally give it a shot. There are some other little things I want to change (the cymbals are a little too shimmery for me, I need to shelve some high end off, and every once in a while the bass guitar pokes through the mix too much [do you know how hard you have to compress a bass guitar that's only being played via hammer-ons? It's absurd]) So I'll check out how that works.

They need to play Wisconsin
Milwaukee wasn't close enough?!?!

 

[VangelicSurgeon]

hehehehe

awesome Sam thanks

Hey, I didn't know who the hell you were until a few months ago so that doesn't count.

 

[FalseTodd]

Oh, so the band's on your fucking agenda now? Look buddy, there's like 800 people in the band and only one of you. Do the math:

I can't stay mad at you. Give us a cuddle.

 

[FrostGiant]

My doctor said I can't fly due to my lack of money.

 

[azal]

[YaYo]

Im suprised how similar all the sounds are, guitar tone and so on..

I wish i had hope of seeing this live sometime, but not much chance of you guys coming to australia! :/

[Ecto]

Sam, please...post here "catharsis of sea sleep and dreaming shrines"...

We all want that song live!
Make us happy!

 

[azal]

[ricochet]

The mp3s sound great, Sam. Thanks a lot!

 

[FuSoYa]
