KYo Mix – James Dupre – Another Love Song – Contest 2024

KYo, I just listened to your mix.

Despite your explanations (all natural…) I am not convinced of the result.
There are still several major problems: firstly the snare, much too loud, sounds in stereo which is really unpleasant when listening to headphones.
The toms are very heavy, without impact and everything on the cymbals is absolutely discreet.
The bass takes center stage.
But I like the main voice even though the choirs are almost non-existent.
I don’t understand what’s happening in your mix or rather what’s not happening from 1’28 to 1’38 where there is an electric guitar solo linked to a steel guitar solo. There is nothing.
The Hammond B3 organ dominates the accompaniment to the detriment of the banjo and the acoustic guitar, I don’t hear the latter two.
Well, whatever the techniques and means used, we are far from all the tracks but that is not necessarily important, it is the final result that counts.
Not convinced that your mix reflects the “country” atmosphere.

This is all a question of taste. And of course, this cannot be discussed…

Ohhh! I’m anxious about my woofers! The BD really kicks, maybe slightly too much.

Good luck to you.

Solid mix. Sounds good
