My name is Steven Roessner. I'm a professor at the University of Rochester in the audio music engineering department
I am also a Grammy Award winning engineer
and I
mix and master and record
For I've been doing it for probably too long
But I enjoy it. I enjoy it. I love it
it's very top-heavy and
By that I mean there's a lot of high frequency content both guitars vocals the kick drum even is very clicky
There's not a lot of like bottom ends to the mix like it's there. It's present
But to me it's just this sounds like after
You know five six songs my ears are started going to be fatigued because they're being assaulted with high frequency content
All the time, but then again, that's a trait of this particular. Type of music
This is a very wide mix
Almost to the point where I feel like there might be some stuff, that's a little out of phase
But it's not necessarily bad. It just seems like I have sounds that are outside the boundaries of the speakers and the stereo mix
Vocals are just too loud. I think it's a combination of the EQ
They're so forward that the rest of the band is kind of like
Set back in the mix
I like the song. I like the production the arrangement is really cool the way it goes from like really loud the chorus
and then this
electronic kind of versus
I Just think mixing
could be a little more balanced
I Can hear everything clearly vocals sound great. I like the horn arrangements
And their placement I get here to the guitar and then
in the intro of the bass guitar doing the slap
There's particular notes in that part where I feel like I don't know if I really like that because they pop out and they almost
interfere with the vocals
It's an interesting part, interesting sound, but it might be just a little too much
It's a lot going on
Its well mixed for what's going on
In general when you're working with electronic songs or electronic
samples, it's a little easier to mix because
The sounds already pretty much set for you
It shows up with the samples on the kick and snare and the synth stuff
You're adding delays you're adding reverbs
To make it more interesting or different than the stock sample
This is a very playful mix, I'm getting lost in it which is a good thing
There's a lot going on a lot to take apart. It's kind of fun to listen to
Something I've noticed in all these songs so far. Is that pretty much anything rhythmic is right in the center
Anything harmonic is way outside like guitars even like the guitars are also providing rhythm here, but they're mainly a harmonic instrument
way outside delays and things
Going every which way, but like kick, snare, everything's just always tight center.
I Like that there's a slight back echo on the du du du du, it's very subtle, but very nice, very well done
I'm lost. It's like a musical salad
I'm going to go ahead and agree with the YouTube commenters
that this might not have been their best foot to start off on only because
It's like they're throwing in everything to see what sticks
and production-wise
The engineer... that's a challenge to make this all fit
That was interesting what they did with the voice there, pitch shift up
Not bad, might wanna try that on something I'm doing right now actually
Seems pretty muddy
And by that I mean there's a lot of
Mid-range, that's just like
fighting for attention
So there's not a lot of clarity in this mix. It's all very
Jumbled together. I can hear the vocals I hear things
but they're all
occupying the same space
Vocals sound great right here, and the depth of field is very nice
So the layers, the instruments, I can hear the stage
kind of this way as opposed to just this way, I can hear this way and this way
And it's very creatively mixed as far as like the vocals are center, and then on this chorus part
They go wide and they're doubled
There's a lot to listen to it's a really dynamic mix as far as like
Stuff going on, everything is very clear everything's very nice
Balanced it's not top heavy. It's not bottom. You know light. It's very
Very well done
I Kind of enjoy that that high hat almost like woodpeckery kind of thing that's going on.
Yeah, it's it's a very It's it's a different take on that sound
Usually it's a very
Sharp thing and this has a little more reverb and a little more depth to it
So I kind of enjoy that most of the time when you hear that. It's very
precise and this kind of like fills in a little bit better
Yeah, right here it seems like
Something things come in that's like it becomes unbalanced to a point where it's like oh this is kind of distracting
I Enjoy that they're not using traditional
Samples, that we've heard through the other songs like I haven't heard really a sample that I've already heard before
This is a very good mix so I
I Feel like because I liked the mix of BLΛƆKPIИK and I like the mix of this
whoever is heading this production,
at this entertainment group knows... Knows what should be done
I have a gut feelings that whoever decides like this song can be released they have a good ear
