This was a great mix Clovis, I listened a few times during the weekend. Track selection was as impeccable as always, my only complaint is that the mix dragged on a bit in the middle section, but other than that it was perfect.
Really, the problem is that when I know I'm recording and I'm not playing a party, I over think mixes and then end up electing to play it safer and wait longer before mixing in.
Then the energy drops between tracks and they seem too drawn out. I could have mixed in much earlier between that run and everything would have sounded better.
When I'm buzzed and playing out I don't think about things as much and it helps a lot...

Heh, I have the exact same problem as you, Clovis, with regards to mixing out... I'm definitely much more experimental when playing for a group of friends, but if I'm recording something a bit more 'serious', then I will play it almost TOO safe.
