Happy holidays Phil. I'm going to take a few listens on your clip. First impression is top notch. Great musically, great sound design, great stereo image, good transitions.

yea I have no critique because that sounds really pro, maybe relatively the levels can be tweaked minutely to taste.
@st no point of finishing anything, I cant get a good sound.

Sorry to hear that Msz!
There really wasn't much to say on your clip as far as I'm concerned. I've always been a sucker for the atmospheric type of stuff. What could help is perhaps low shelving shelving some of the pads to reduce the low end. This should create some space for the low end to come through better.
Perhaps I'd have gone for some different drum sounds but nothing too special.
Thinking of it, what could help is something like Tokyo Dawn Records Nova, a free fabfilter like vst with eq-based compression. This could allow your mix to dynamically have more space for other elements.
If you'll allow me I'll hit you up in the DM.

Many thanks for taking the time ST.
there is a level of punch, clarity and dominance is sounds I have trouble wrapping my head around.
I know sound is subjective, however I deem this nice.
im not using any saturators maybe thats part of it, not matter how much I push that crisp punch is never there.
This guy has a production-making-of video, which helps in the matter, its nice to look at what other people are doing.
there are a lot of little tricks im sure im not doing, im basically just using a limiter, eq, compression. im a lazy guy.
dont waste your time on me ST, enjoy the christmas my guy, <3

No worries.
I haven't checked the videos yet but I'm going to assume sound selection is a part of it. Check your DM :).
Merry christmas and all to all ;).

There's a bunch of projects I have lying around with potential, just not the time or inspiration to finish. I've been working on these 2 a bit the past few days. Hoping to experiment with a full on vocal myself with lots of autotune and a voice changer to see what that could turn out like. But first recordings of myself I dropped, autotune couldn't save it :D
As you might see in the soundcloud widget there are some notes to self in there too.
Note: There's 2 mixes. The original and a house version (the latter in the playlist).
Looking forward to hear what suggestions you might have!
Great start Darek. Happy new year to you too! Maybe the rhodes are distorting a bit much (saturation plugin perhaps?). In the end when the vocals come in, maybe try and duck some of the mids on the instruments. Vocals and instruments seem to be clashing in the same frequency range. Good work :)
