aa2 - week 10 - mixing 03

For mixing down this week I've chosen an electronic piece I sort of finished several months ago, and dug out for a new perspective.

It features an interesting array of drum sounds, with most of the track having a "click" rather than a kick. And pretty much most of the bass spectrum actually lives in the bass line, with other sounds rarely touching the low end.

It turns out however that the first sample is from a section featuring another kick. It is in other respects quite a sparse section.

The second sample is the first with a HPF and compression on the stereo mix.

Third sample is a different section and features the HPF and compression on the stereo mix.
