WAR KABINETT video

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

Check them out (reamped, mixed and mastered by yours truly)

Like the mix, trying to listening without laughing at the video (vocalist in particular). It might just be me, but it seems a bit empty down the middle of the stereo field - I've just been listening to Tyr's latest album so I'm only going against that. That said, guitar/bass tones are seriously wicked.

Love everything about this.... except watching the singer. Guy is trying to look WAY too serious.

 

[onetruth]

great mix dude but the band and vid are jokes!!

 

[DanLights]

Excellent mix, I like the chorus. Singer's nostrils are distracting

Edit: I mean the chorus of the song, not the chorus effect.

 

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

Thanks guys
Keep comments coming if you have any, I'd be curious to know more about the "it seems a bit empty down the middle of the stereo field" statement though, I'm not sure I understand it

 

[Mago]

Toms sound HUGE, awesome!
not too much a fan of the rest of the drums, but they fit the mix and the style perfectly
Rest sounds nice
the panning and the choir and the chorus is a bit distracting imo, sounds like it's beeing placed there and not really connected to the mix

Hey man i just checked out the vid, yes the vocalist is funny but in a good way!! haha i don't know how to explain it. and believe it or not, though i don't usually listen to this type of singing, i really think his singing is awesome! not kdg. the chorus is great actually and he sounds really good there.
May i ask what you used for the guitars? i am listening on my laptop now so everything is crappy but ill transfer it to my monitor setup as soon as i wake up tom. (sorry i know you were expecting comments on the mix..)

 

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

Hey thanks for the feedback. The guitars are Peavey 6505.

 

[Sloan]

sound pretty rad

 

[rispsira]

hey just listened through monitors, i thought the mix was a bit too bright a TINY BIT, but that's after a couple of hours of trying to reamp a guitar DI of which i dont like the sound Also i am no one worth listening to haha.

Otherwise great work Brett i think it kicks ass. nice man!

 

[Harley Barley]

not related to the mix but the vocalist looks like an Uruk-hai from lord of the rings haha

 

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

HAHAHA that's quite true with those lenses

 

[Nuno Filipe]

The whole mix is a bit bright indeed. Love the Falsetto of the singer.

 

[Soundlurker]

Yeah a bit bright and thin otherwise cool.

 

[rispsira]

The whole mix is a bit bright indeed. Love the Falsetto of the singer.

Cool im not the only one who likes (at least an aspect of) the singer

 

[Aaron Smith]

I love the kick attack. Probably a few stacked samples?

 

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

No just one that I did months (years) ago that I tend to like too much lol

The band wanted a kind of Dimmu Borgir "Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia" master, so it's loud as fuck (seriously, it's kind of ridiculous in places but they like it) and on the bright side but that's their call really. Their music is very interesting and very very diverse, they blend influences like Gamma Ray (the guitar player from Gamma Ray does a guest solo on this album) and Iced Earth with Dimmu Borgir and Slayer or Testament and Judas Priest... That's really pure Metal, even though they recorded a real choir and a real orchestra.
