Israfel Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 Mixer: Riddler Sensei -------------------------- When I first started this, the intent was to see how much bass my friend's subwoofers could take. After tinkering with it a bit, I decided to tone the bass down a bit to a tolerable level and make it a real mix (though the bass is still rather heavy). Obviously, the main point of the mix is the bass; there's a lot of it. There are complimenting high parts, but the intent is to loose yourself in the heaviness of the bass part and kind of space out to an extent.

Protricity Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 This song is really annoying. crazy overdone reverb and off sync notation. Lots of repetition. Biggest problem is the overly floody nature of the mix. Work on sound quality. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcos Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 I can hear good groove potential here. Unfortunately there are several issues to do with how the song was mixed and mastered. The combination of using too much reverb and emphasising the bass at the same time has caused the bass to distort. I personally know that this sort of reverb heavy and bass heavy tune takes time to mix - tweak the settings carefully to keep it big, but not too much or it'll become muddy, as this has. No reverb on the kick! Needs more work. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny B Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 Not much else to say, the bass thing just isn't working for me. I don't know what's up with your friend's sub, but I sure can't hear any true sub-end. The drums show little in the way of effective EQ or Processing techniques, Each drum sound should carve out its own "niche" of Frequency space, so each sound can be heard loud and articulate. Along with the uber-repetitious synthage on top of the mix, I can't give this one the go. NO GO -D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrayLightning Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 I kind of like this. The reverb works for me, except when the kick/bass drum kicks in *no pun intended*. It is pounding and painful to listen to especially on headphones. Use different reverb amounts on bass instruments, especially low drums like that. Has potential with a lot more work.
