You can listen to the song at the above link. Just got some new monitors, some KRK 8's. This is my first mix on them. Any suggestions would be great.

I'd like to hear what the previous mix sounded like. I'm no mix guy, but this sounds really clear. Maybe the percussion could be stronger, I'm listening on headphones right now (at work). Nice tune too! But don't pay any attention to me, wait for Noize or someone else... I enjoyed it...

Thanks for the feedback. Wondering if there is a little bit to much low end in the mix? I can upload the previous mix as well if you would like to hear. Thanks.

Hey there. Not too much low end at all. I pushed it a little to see if it came out hard and it didn't sound overdone at all. I'm sure on a car stereo with the sub cranked it might thump and ring a bit but that is the nature of systems set up that way. Here in the studio it had a good bottom end on the kick bass beat.

Dude, correct me if I'm wrong, but I hear an accordion in there. If it is s synth patch I gotta say nicely done and well used. It fits very well in there.

On the percusion parts, I agree that it might add a little to bring them up front a bit. The hat beats could come up just the littlest bit as well. Although I like the subdued sound of them.

I as well like the change up on the vocals, well done there as well.

Overall it is very catchy and kept my interest through several listens.

Thanks for the listen. Lol theres an accordian in there but it's layered with a violin. Nice ears to hear that though, wasnt expecting anyone to notice.

After a few listens, I agree with the comment on the percussion.

Thanks for the help!

Dude, the accordion fits right in with the layered strings. I wasn't really sure on what it was layered with but was guessing some string sound. Either way very nicely done in my book.
