K, back with this one, having some feelings that the mix is too flat/cheap sounding though, sounds ok on some speakers I have here but I doubt it will translate. The bass transient is probably too weak. There are no fx so it might sound naked, and the 3minute breakdown...
sounding good, ill give it a proper listen tonight, bass sounds fine to me, nothing everything needs a transient, plenty of transients in the drums, contrast is gooooood
breakdown sounds good, personally would be inclined to fade in the higher frequency sound but thats just preference, id lose the clap as well...
the main thing you have is the feel, which is really good, its just about getting everything to fit now
Thanks for the feedback evo, I was thinking maybe the kick low end might be too much, i'll move on to finalizing this, not sure I can tweak my mix any more on my end. I can always send it out for stemming if it bothers me that much.

just a bit more feedback whilst i listen
low low end is really wide, do you have a centering plugin or M/S EQ, you dont need that much sub wide IMHO
try and centre something as well, if everything is wide then nothing is really wide - maybe that aggressive stab? low pass a little and try it in the centre mono?? might work
thats a fearsome low end brother, was gonna say cut a little when on headphones, but the mains are saying naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah leave it
I have to get rid of that kick its reflexing like some sort of hard techno track; the more I listen, the more its wierding me out.
I wouldn't have this problem if I had bigger drivers.

nnnnnnnn wouldnt change that kick personally, its sitting nicely, big decision!!
its a heavy low end, nothing wrong with that!
That sounds very good and everything is tight, personally I'd like some more low end saturation/extension from your bass or even something separate low end related through into the mix, there is a gap in my mind wanting to be filled. Started listening to some old balances for reference. I've always been a bass head.

jesus you are right, listening back couple of hours later, bass is way off, will fix tomorrow, thanks
I've been working on this political track for a while, now what I need to know HOSTELY is if the drop is just too happy and not dark and 'roaring' enough compared to the intro

So I REALLY need your thoughts.

The break is bare - will deal with it later
I've never needed advice as badly as on this one
interesting track, love the vocal style, think the vocal could do with some reverb or delay though
I wouldnt describe this as dark in any way, its more uplifting imo
