Mixing/Mastering / Backing Vocals
« on: April 07, 2016, 09:14:33 pm »
Hey guys.

Been analysing one of my favourite artists Jordan Rakei and i've noticed his backing vocals are always so tight. They sound so thin, yet really present in the mix, always allowing his main vocal to be in the forefront. I know this is a pretty vague question, but if anybody has any decent mixing tips in general for mixing backing vox that would be great. Here are a couple of examples of his work where you can those backing vocals:

Sound Design / What is this sound?

Hey Guys.

I recently discovered a new track i've been listening to and I really like the sound of one of the synths playing a melody subtly in the background.

You can hear it at around 1:32 minutes into the song and for a few phrases throughout the pre-chorus.

Does anyone know what it is? How you could make it? If anyone knows of any tutorial vids that would be amazing.

Here's the song: https://soundcloud.com/skelamusic/rivers
