TFOG challenge! Best mix will be used in music video + gets reward

[Another Guitar Dude]

Here is my mix. Hell of a catchy song and really fun to mix. I only replaced the kick in the drums, everything else is the real stuff you provided.

I decided to sneak in with a last minute final entry
The chorus reminds me of Velvet Revolver and I got a Marshall Vintage Modern last week which is what Slash used for Velvet Revolver so......

Did an alternative version today - more like a modern rock mix. I don't think either is better or worse - they're just different. Choose which one you like:

Hello guys, this is my mix. Only kick was replaced and rythym guitars were augmented.

Heya!

Sorry it took us so long, it was crazy going through all the mixes and managing to stay objective. We would like to announce the most sausage-breaking (winning) mix is by Rapucore! He managed not only to bring the elements of the song, levels and compression to a good balance, but also gave the song an unusual character. Also totally nailed the vocals!

Here's my vision of the song. Super catchy chorus and song in general, I really liked it! Kick got replaced but the rest of the kit is what was recorded (with all sorts of nice parallel stuff going on) as was wished! I ended up reamping the guitars to get the sound I was looking for. Thanks for listening!

The choice was tough and competition strong. Feedback for other mixes is coming soon

Thank you all for participating!

The competition was indeed strong! I'm glad to hear I still got the sausage-breaking magic.

Many thanks!

Heya, sorry it's taking so long. I don't really have time to summarize the feedback because I'm learning for finals for my master's degree. I have them on thursday so then I should finally be able to provide it
