Remixed my Narcosynthesis track

[Jaymz]

for the lulz...

Tweaked a few bits on the drums and bass etc, used less EQ on the guitars...as long as its an improvement on the previous then thats all good

Sounds like its got more beef and better seperation to me, but I did it quickly this evening so you can be the judge of that :Shedevil:

would really like to say something about that...but I came home from the Nevermore / Symphony X concert only about 90mins ago, and I kinda need to give my ears some rest
so here you have a free bump at least haha
they didn't play that song today unfo, from what I can remember

 

[Jaymz]

Oh you tease! I wish I could see Nevermore in the near future but they keep dodging the UK for some reason

 

[HollowmanPL]

maybe it's your style but in my opinion you could add some lower mids.
it's already great! \m/

Good call! I think I sometimes cut a little much on the bass for fear of a rumble fest!

I can't crank my monitors now but ive updated the OP with moar low midz

 

[Jaymz]

Bump, is the low mids a little too much now or about right?

 

[HollowmanPL]

You're very gentle with EQ
While listening I've add some 300hz, more 600hz and 1khz and I think the mix is 'full' now.
You know, it depends on your mixing style. I like when mix has a cool midrange, but some people avoid mids

Damn I like this song...I've listened to it about 443534534 times today. Yesterday I heard original version...Nevermore sux

 

[Jaymz]

I just eased up on the cuts on the bass, to me there's quite a big difference in that area now especially on those notes in the into on the bass.

Curious about some other opinions This will go on my website player when I have it finished

 

[Mago]

Compared it to the version on youtube, sounds less clear but more beef'd up with the low mids. I like it!
not a huge fan of the reverb on the snare, sounds a bit distant

 

[Jaymz]

Updated OP again, experimented and re-did the lows on the bass...much less phasey and gells much better with the guitars IMO.

Also changed the drum verb

 

[Empathy]

You are indeed a wizard sir, it's sounding better than the original.

 

[Mago]

Yeah snareverb is a lot better now...there was a bit much low mid oomp going on on before
bass is cool now, less scooped now...only a bit powerful maybe, but that's up to tastes I think
Definitly an improovement man!

 

[Felix Neumann]

James, it sounds perfect

You are indeed a wizard sir, it's sounding better than the original.

Let´s call him, The wizard of eternal brootz!!!!

 

[Jaymz]

Thanks guys I really need a wizard hat on my avatar now hahaha

Marco, only a bit powerful? Does that mean its not very powerful or its a bit too powerful?

Tell me if you really want that wizard hat

 

[Jaymz]

Haha dunno how much different remixes of narcosynth I got on my pc!! I swear THIS will be the last one I download....Probably

Yeah, give James the deserved wizard hat!!!!

 

[Jaymz]

Haha don't worry Felix this will be the last one!

I thought just after I exported both the MP3 and the WAV's "hmmm the old version had less sizzle on the guitars...maybe I should increase those cuts in those areas..." then I thought "NO!!! I must not fuck around with it anymore!"

I still think this is my best guitar tone so far

This IS one of the best guitar tones I´ve heared in mylife...seriously Fucking hell, it´s good to be a part of it!! Vocals still shines out great in the mix. So it seems the changes didn´t affect the vocal track, or did you equalize?

Thankyou Felix! Yeah I changed up some parts of the vocal chain I think it shines a little better than before, I eased up on some high end cuts amongst some other things, so actually a little less EQ overall again Glad you dig them!
