This is my metal remix of a song called ‘Diamond’, an OST from the Korean drama ‘Itaewon Class’. The recordings were a bit rushed in some parts(eg. metronome bleed), but the mixing was done with maximum amount of effort as possible. I wanted everything to sound like Periphery III so I tried my best to use the most similar guitar tones and mixing techniques. Mastering was done on Emastered for a start, but I fixed and enhanced some bits and pieces to make it sound strong and good enough. (btw the chorus is at about 48secs in case you don’t have time)
Enjoy!
Overall it’s pretty good. I do think the rhythm guitars are getting lost in the mix. And I think the kick is causing the mix to pump a little bit. But that might be eMastereds fault.
I kinda wanted the kick and the rhythm guitars to work together to create impact so I put shitton of compression on which made the mix pump a little bit. I will consider pushing the rhythm guitar levels about 1 to 2 dbs. Plz rate the mix if possible.
Thanks for the tip 🙂
