While trying to find my happiness again I wrote this song. I'm feeling a little bit happier now. wink.gif

It was a lot of work, but I enjoyed every minute of it smile.gif

The composition and the production of the video are fine.

For me the mix is muddy and lacks air and top end. As others have said the drums don't sound human and are rather 'flat'. The gainstaging needs looking at and the ambience is a litle over done.

Tony is spot on per usual here smile.gif Keep in mind though that, given the tools at hand, your mix sounds easily as good as most things I hear on the web these days. Now that's not to say such a bar is that high. Still, your overall mix is listenable and pretty balanced as far as these levels of productions go so credit where it's due smile.gif

That being said, it's worth looking in to what tony is saying and starting to delve deeper in to EZ Drummer to unlock it's full potential. E.G.

1.)Using multi track drum mixes, NOT the default stereo ez drum output.

*This is a big one. If you are not already doing this, do a quick youtube search on "Multi track Ez Drummer". Then you can start the life long process of learning how to mix a drum kit smile.gif

2.)Consider your monitor situtation

*It sounds like you may be monitoring on something with a pinch to much sparkle? E.G Bright Headphones/Computer monitors or God Forbid ear buds? What are you using to listen to your mix? This will have a HUGE impact on your sound.
