[FINISHED] R.E.M. - Everybody Hurts (Stripes Remix)
« on: January 08, 2016, 11:53:29 pm »

As per the request of a close friend to "make a super obnoxious remix of a somber song," I've decided to do a bootleg remix of this classic.

WELP, HOPEFULLY I FINISH TONIGHT I'LL POST UPDATES AS I GO


Update 1: the drop

Update 2: Electric boogaloo
Fixed some things. added some more. thumbs up.

Update 3: Another one
Oh boy.

Update 4: The Final Frontier
FINISHED. UNMIXED. UNMASTERED.

note for anyone in the future: the progress tracks are only being left up for 7 days. after that i'm taking them down to free up space on soundcloud.

Kick sounds like it has somekind of distortion on it. Also it's clipping at 0:50.

But the ideas in general are cool.

Thank you, I appreciate that! The kick is clipping a bit (i honestly hadn't noticed til now, i've been in writing mode not paying attention to the levels at all), and the clipping at 0:50 is fixed for sure but when I bounced the track the plugin i used was turned off. /shrug

Heyo, coming back since you've updated everything.

So, Kick is still weak. There's a lack of bass in your experimental drop thingy or it's not low enough. Panning snare could be a good idea if snare are used as percussions not as main snares. Sometimes it's confusing to not hear a heavy snare after the kick.

There is cool ideas, need a bit more work and they could be very cool.

I'll have to keep that in mind for the future, I really appreciate the feedback! To be honest though, I'm pretty much over the track now. I wasn't being very serious about it at all, it was a joke for a friend and I think I got far enough with it.
