Come On Over - Mid Mix

I found no fault in the mix, sounded balanced on my headphones. The song is great and very good performances too.

I'll only dig-deep on the mix and not the tune itself.
 
FYSA I am listening on KRK monitors w/sub
 
I'd like the hear the chorus bvox spread out it bit more as all the vox seem to sit in the middle of the mix.
Keys should come up some in and round 1:40ish
The toms (2:26 and at the end of the tune) sound a bit rumbly...sound more like a mic'ing issue then an EQ issue
@3:00 I feel the wheels kinda start to fall off from a production standpoint (but thats not a mix issue)
Again at the end where you have the bvox working with the main vox (love the concept but not in its current form) I'd like the hear the bvox move up in the mix and panned away from the middle of the mix where it seems to sit atop the main vox.
 
very catchy tune and fun tune to listen to....

kakku - thank you.
 
Rebel - I actually bumped the bass, and it doesn't sound annoying to me, but I'm taking your advice because it's be consistent amongst a number of people.

- They were hardpanned and they are double tracked, so they should feel spread...but somehow they don't. If I hard pan them, then bus them, does that negate the panning? Or should you insert a bus and pan the bus?
 
Toms rumbly - this is my first time micing a drum set for a recording...no doubt I did it wrong. I can explain what I did though. I used the Glyn Jon technique with two mics and essentially used them as overheads (not a matched pair). Then I mic'd each drum, with a hard attack angle pointed at the tom head, so, NOT accross the tom, mostly down at the skin - they seemed less overly resonant that way.
 
3min Why do the wheels fall off?

it's supposed to be a hit with the chords, triplet, hit, then a triplet roll on the floor tom. I admit, the mics didn't capture it the way I hear it. The overheads are providing the "thinning" snappy quality to it - the tom mics are more ballsy and thunderous. But - they occupy alot of space. I'm just not sure what to do.

thanks PUG!!!
 
This is my first song ever with live drums - I think I need about 20 or 30 more before they sound amazing.

Production comments -
 
Please keep in mind production thoughts are like food....its all totally subjective so take it all w/a grain.
 
2:54 is a great tension release point but rather than ramping aback up, at 3:04 if further slows down the train having me waiting for something to happen...which is not a good thing IMHO. I would have liked to hear that release point kick back in w/o further stretching out that (slower) section. When you do kick back in your vox is strained on the high notes... I noticed that in other parts of the tune but in this section, which you took (too) long to set up has my full attention and the strain sticks out....but a re do is an easy fix and I would make that happen (vox wise). On the outro you chose to once again slow it down to end the tune (sloppily which works on some tunes but didnt work for me here). I would have just replayed the end (starting a 3:18) part over and over and just faded.
 
Simply stated the strength of this tune it's melodic catchyness and the ending doesn't play to that strength and in fact steals from it. Still all and all a very cool song.

I've remixed those toms...maybe the part just doesn't work with the resources I have...I don't know. That bugs me.

all good -  completely understand.
