Iâm no Dave Gahan, but i tried my best. Recording and mixing vocals is not so easy.
The vocals fit perfectly with the song but you got to mix them better because its a killer track!!!
Great song, but the mix, which is completely flat and sounds like a kitchen radio, sucks.
You donât need to be Dave Gahan to deliver something decent. This is by far your best work imho. Yes, the mix could be improved, but itâs not bad. First of all I would increase the loudness of the lower pitch singing, right now itâs hard to understand. And additionally I would increase the higher frequencies a little bit to gain more clearness, but at the same time I would also use a de-esser to limit the sibilants.
Yes, instead use an echo like Waves H-Delay and a bit short reverb, also I like the mix of the prior version more, way more balanced or so? Please donât give up, almost there! You could stereoize you vocal, if the middle already is usedâŚ
Thanks guys!
I noticed it right away after i posted it that there were something off. I ran out of CPU so i had to turn off a lot of fx and forgot to turn them back on. I think this one is a bit more balanced, but i guess youâre right about the lack of de-essing and i had solved that in the first version of this track. Somehow i thought i lost a bit too much in the higher frequencies and removed the de-esser setup. I should probably do some more fixing, but hereâs the mix i intended to post:

Thanks for listening mate not gonna argue with that! Absolutely valid point.
Thanks man, I appreciate you listening nice one
Boss tune this, really enjoyed listening to it. The first mix you posted was good I thought but this one was easier on the ears maybe. Good stuff nonetheless
Hello people,
this time around i have a ninja style electro tune to offer.
Done in Renoise using mostly Surge VST synth and its effects.
Enjoy!
Maybe. I donât use compression that much, just to bring out some percussions.
There is some peak limiting (around -3db) on the master. And i put a gate here and there to condense some reverb tails.
Great , and i like the way the pad/string dictates the mood of the track
So - this is my upcoming single SAD DREAMS.
I hope, I really hope you like it.
@uncle_c thatâs a neat little tune. I dig the sound design and how in a short amount of time go to a few different place. the main âmelodicâ wob, wob, wob bell does get on my nerves after a while. And the ending feels, well it just stops. I think thatâs a pity. But good stuff to build on, if you ask me.
@willy_dinglefinger now thatâs the kind of music I donât hear around here too often, good stuff! To me it feels like a live version. To my mind it feels a bit slower and sloppier than the album version would be. Donât get me wrong, thatâs not a complaint or insult. Rather a compliment. It feels alive. If youâll permit me a point of critique. Itâs the drums. They keep time just fine. But they are also rather static. Some more aggressive fills here and there could really bring it to the next level. Excellent stuff! Heard it 4 times already.
@TheBellows Nebula 2 feels like some Scandinavian electro bands from the early to mid 90s or so. Both in terms of genre/style and your mix. I feel youâve made a lot of progression in your music since the last track by you that I heard. I look forward to hearing more of this style of music from you.
@strobotone kindo match is bright and punchy, i like that. It has some good sounds in there for sure. To my mind the tune lacks a bit of flow. It feels like itâs changing direction a couple of times but never truly commits. I think that with a stronger, more focused arc this could be a rather excellent track indeed. But hey, thatâs just my two cents.
@Marc_Shake Thatâs a dramatic little piece. The little melodic motif is lovely. If you donât mind me saying; I do feel the climax is of the tune isnât quite big enough. The notes feel like things are starting to soar. But the music doesnât get alive enough for my taste. I feel youâre almost there. You just need to go a little bit bigger. A little bite wider. Maybe a little looser in terms of timing. You have the event, have most of the ingredients. I just feel something is missing there still. But thatâs just how I feel about it. Nice stuff nonetheless.
Recently I did a quick cover of Alessandro Cortiniâs Everything Ends Here with my Behringer 2600, Neutron and Pro-1 (instead of with a Buchla). Nothing fancy, just having fun with my synths which is what itâs all about, right.
I am impressed by your ability to express your feelings about music that way.
Indeed, i feel like being held back lately. There is pressure all around us and i am having a hard time letting the mind flow.

Thank you! My biggest struggle at the moment is being able to really âhearâ what a song needs to finish it, whether in terms of sequencing or layering. I guess my main approach is to just be âfinishingâ things as much as possible, whether or not theyâre really complete, with the aim of being able to hear those gaps in the finished song once I listen to it without the filter of âoh, Iâll change this quickâ
Any tips on improving in this area?
