    I think the mix sounds pretty good. The bass sounds really solid with a tight bottom end. The drums however are a bit too loud in my opinion and the sample on the snare sounds a bit too much max velocity if you know what I mean. The added FX all sound cool but maybe a bit over the top for this kind of fairy primitive death metal. Also the bass drops out on a few occasions where it doesn’t sound intentional.
    Overall the mix and production sounds good, don’t know if it’s enough to win though. Time will tell!

    Hi Serpent, I really appreciate your honesty, thanks man ^^

    I wanted to make this a modern 2023 mix, not an old-fashioned sound which is why I added cool FX throughout and ensured the low end was tight, fat and solid!

    I intentionally took out the bass in certain sections for build and effect, it sounds better to me this way. The bass is cool being active all song but sometimes a breather is more effective :P

    Do you have a link to your mix I can hear? 🤟

    Yeah, I get where you’re coming from. Your mix sounded pretty solid so the things I mentioned really comes down to personal preferences.
    Here’s what I managed to piece together.

    @serpent_coil Good job man :) Your mix sounds better than most mixes I’ve heard in this competition. But the guitar leads you personally added don’t sound good, especially the main guitar solo and the little noise near the start of the mix. The guitar part near the end sounded ok however.

    Your intro sound clip fits the overall mood of the song and sounds kinda cool and creepy at the same time lol

    So yeah, I’d delete the guitar parts I mentioned and I’m certain that you will have a better chance of getting a good result.

    Good luck man 🤟

    There are so many good mixes (including yours) that in the end I think it will be a matter of taste.

    @BetonmischerBetonmischer I totally agree with you man, the judges will base thier choices on taste, therefore sometimes the best mix doesn’t win which is simply unfair.

    This mix definitely sounds modern, although you went a bit overboard with effects imo. Sounds like you had a lot of fun mixing the song tho!

    @Alex Yu I definitely had ALLOT of fun thanks! but I disagree that I went overboard with effects because my effects add a cool aspect to my work which simply nearly all other mixes don’t have.

    I think this is one of the better ones. The FX are not too overbearing, and they add an interesting twist to the mix. 👍

    Thanks for the input!
    You know what? The added lead was sort of a last minute thing and I had a hard time fitting it in with the mix. I really wanted some personal touch that made my entry unique but yeah, I’m not 100% pleased with the way it turned out either. Too late to turn back now since it’s already in the hands of the judges!
