TRACK 1 of 4
----------------------------------------

Personal:

This song was chosen to be the first track on the EP, so i've given it a pretty long intro.

0m50 Bass starts and kick starts pumping, could use some more aggressiveness

1m20 Nonetheless very satisfied with this build and subsequent DROP

1m35 Has the right amount of fatness in my opinion

1m43 Mix actually feels great, i've checked it on headphones, el cheapo chinese earbuds, car stereo, cell phone, 

ipad

2m07 I value the horns that happen in the background ish, half synth and half 'choir' sounding. I would like to be 

able to introduce them more into the mix without effecting fatness too much. The purpose of the song is sounding 

PUMPED UP.

2m58 This drop is nice, i don't know if could get proper stereo spacing wise, tho.

3m30 Good drop and keeps it tense

3m50 Onwards, the vibe changes to a more calm one, A bit more of buss glue (slight compression?) and reverb maybe?

4m25 Liking this, it prepares you for something.

4m42 The harsher, the better at this point, but can't break the soothing vibe that was before.

5m03 We are starting going downward.

5m30 Nice ending.

== Overall, i'm very pleased with this mix, BUT, i think it could be fuller or maybe more 'in your face', i 

compromised that by giving it lots of dynamic range tho, dunno if i can achieve both.

== I succeeded in giving the Kick+Bass a proper THUD, it feels very intense and the 7/4 exacerbates it somewhat.
