remix i just finished let me know what you guys think, i thought it came out really well

[Radiant]

Really liking the composition on this one, very strong climax as well!

As for technicalities:
it could do with a better mixdown, it still sounds a little muddy overall, the vocals are being dominated by the bassline, and the drums could stand out a bit more. Give all the instruments their place in the frequency range with EQs and that should make it sound even better!

[TheSoup]

thanks man! big ups

actually do you have any advice about using eqs for mixes? ive been having trouble getting my mixdowns good because even if i turn everything down in the mix so its not so packed, something always stands out too much and my drums always sound weak

Nice! I have just finished a dnb remix of this tune funnily enough. i agree with the overall mix being muddy but then again so is my mix its just one of them problems you overcome with experience. I always feel each song i make is better than the last. Anyway feel free to have a ganders at mine

Yeah, well you can start simple, high frequency things like hi-hats and high pitched vocals shouldn't have any/little low frequencies, so you can cutoff the low frequencies on that.

Low frequencies exist out of bass; so there you can take away some high frequencies without losing character.

There's various videos on youtube and books on it if you're really interested, and loads of topics in the production forum as well that discuss matters like this. (FabFilter on youtube has some very clear tutorials.)

Lovely.

i quite like this, i think like has been said the bass and vocals are quite dominating, but then this is a mix of an adele tune! the biggest problem is that yes, they both mask the drums.... i think i would notch a bit of low mid out of the vocals and i think the reverb on the vox is wrong for the rest of the track..i would notch the low mid out of the entire mix actually.... and turn the drums up!

really enjoyed this one mate. i would mention about the mix, but it has already been said, so i'll say no more!

so, yeah... keep up the good work!

This song would be definetly heavy if properly mixed , as said before !
