Hi, fellas! Thanks again for the comments and feedback!

DjAbthrash, glad you liked it in general, thanks! I think the low and mid distortion is due to the bass, which was distorted as a whole, not by bands. Regarding the mix, I mastered it and maybe it was a bit squashed. Thanks for the constructive criticism!

Rentaroot, thanks! I like toms to sound round and big, but also with attack and energy, not an easy task, hehe.

Dom, thanks, man! Yeah, I was debating between getting them bigger or not, and with so much double kick drum I thought going for the clicky way was the best. If I had had more time (I began mixing the last Thursday available…) I would have automated the eq on kicks to have them bigger in the slower parts, but it was a tedious task and didn´t have much time left…

Thank you so much for the feedback again!

Shaun, yeah. I made a mix between the original one and the sample so it was a bit more dynamic, as the original has some hits that are quite low and others that are quite loud. Maybe I should have leveled it a bit more, you´re right. I will check your mix right now.

Carl, thanks, man! Glad you liked it in general and that you dig the effects.

Thanks a lot, AFoolishSeb! Glad you liked the way it sounds.

Serge, thanks! Glad you liked the drums. I tried to blend the original ones with samples that matched and didn´t sound too overprocessed, but added some “modern” flavour to it.

FlorianPiet, thanks, man! Same here, I tried to work on the original ones, cleaning and processing them and added some cool MIDI toms but I edited all the fills (snare and toms) so that it sounded close to the original one.

Kampa, thanks too! Yeah, man, I didn´t have much time (began mixing yesterday because I was too busy and almost had to skip the contest) and maybe I could have tried to make it sound a bit less compressed (not sure if the problem is on the real or the sampled one).

Thanks again to all of you. Cheers and good luck!
