Mix Description

December 2020 was a terrible time for me.. I had to leave town for terrible family business and things have been a mess. I knew when I got back home the only way to heal would be by jumping head first into a creative bender with the band.

This is our first new song in a year, the first of a pile of about 20 in the works.

Just used sonar 6, a bunch of outdated plugins and flstudio for the required drum surgery.

Oh… then theres the chaos that involved recording drumparts and sampling the kit with one shitty dynamic mic…but that’s a long story.

Zakk's Mix Feedback

Love the vibe. Great job creating that with the reverb. As a drummer, I’d like a little more low end thump on the drums, but not a huge deal. Keep up the good work!

Sorry to hear things have been going rough though

    • Thanks zakk, yeah the drums were difficult to get sounding decent.. we basically recorded our drummer playing, then had him do single hits and I went crazy in post drum surgery turning his parts to loops then sample replacing everything with the samples from the kit..

      I kinda wanted a bit of that old 70s pink floyd animals feel, so, while it worked out, i can only juice the low end so much on my eris 3.5s…
