...It's why IMHO we need an impartial, incorruptible judge who take the charge to select the song / piece, and finally proclaim the winner...

Here is another mix which initially I thought was too compressed but am thinking it sounds clearer. Let me know if you think otherwise though?



Thanks for listening @SoundLanguage ! I assure there are no winners on this end, only those aspiring to lose less

 

Thanks for sharing with us, KingPaoFist! After listening, here's what i found, of course it's totally subjective:

1°) Both tracks lacks trebles, harmonics seems a little too much muffled for my taste, voice and cymbals suffers the most of this treatment.

2°) If ever I had to make a choice, I'd prefer the first mix to this last one, because it sounds a little too much "compact", it lacks "air" between instruments...

But i really like this kind of music, it posseses a great energy and impact, the musicians and the singer plays just great, so to sums up: everything is great... but (from my limited pov) the mix needs improvements.

EDIT: you could try one thing: change the singer's microphone for a more qualitative one. IMHO talented singers like this deserves the best possible tool to express nuances, talent and power.

I think there maybe some confusion.

@SoundLanguage

This is the original from the band as released.

This is where you can get the multi-tracks that KPF has.

Good Luck.

 

Thank you for the precision, JMoutton!

...I've simply red the first message, and the subject was: an informal, internal audiosex-only mix contest, not some commercial contest i've never heard about, it changes everything! The result is that I'm far less interested anymore...

 

Can you sing?
I can
Cool would be the Singers and so on.

 

Also i think it should not be an contest.
It should be an addition so more ppl can join.

 

hell yeah..

 

i think this must be parted in rock - techno/house - hipy hop
or so

everyone can dl the stems and mix them and post them here....

 

Good

 

we just need some structure and guide lines..or not just let it evolve i dunno

any ideas ?

 

Provide, and see what changes.
For example, create an sample pack, and let them use it to create.

 

is another story

can you post the stems from lewitt or is it not so to do so ?

 

Thanks for the notes! I think I'll revisit that first mix and see if I can clean it up more when I get a chance. I used some highly saturated amp modulations which is probably what muffled it. Overall I was trying to go for an early punk lofi vibe and used a lot of cassete vst's.

 

Here is a link to the stems if anyone else wants to take a crack at it:

I'd love to mix-up the sexes!!

hey wait, that came out wrong

I haven't done a remix in a loooong time. Sounds like fun.
What about a time limit? like 60 days 45 days, 30 days.

 

Ok, going to make a fast song of whatever this is
