The Indian Two Step (original)

A new one for Christmas. This is the first mix so it probably has a few issues. Drums might be a bit loud. The lead guitar is Amplitube Fender's Super-sonic amp, and the master was done with a T-racks demo. The rest is Sonar X2a. I appreciate your opinions and advice on the mix...be honest, you won't hurt my feelings.

    This sounds great, Clint! Love the guitar playing on this. The mix sounds fine to me also. Everything in its place. 

    When I read the thread title I was actually expecting to hear something else...maybe something like this...

    Sounds great.

    Great playing.

    I think the level of the drums is fine.

    I don't know if it is just my listening system, but the only thing I hear is maybe too much mid/low somewhere. It might be the lead guitar. I don't know.

    But, it doesn't sound bad, just my first impression.

    Great work.

    Sounds great to me. It has a really good balance. I can hear everything clearly and the mix sounds punchy. What more could you ask for? As a guitar player I'd like a little more presence to make the guitar pop out a little more, but honestly the mix sound good.

    Thanks for the helpful opinions. Fwiw I was watching some traveling blu-rays with the wife, and sight seeing in India is the actual inspiration for the title.

    Sounds not too bad. I might bring the guitars up a bit as suggested. The title of the song would seem to have nothing to do with the composition however. I was looking forward to something a bit more creative, but the vibe was generic American Midwest, not Indian subcontinent (nor Christmas).

    Your performances and tones are excellent in this tune.  There's nothing that sticks out as being out of place.  I would like to hear this as a vocal song, but it's good as is.

    All the best,
    Lynn

    Thanks Lynn. I've got some with lyrics coming I promise! Hahaha. I'm working on some re-mixes and would appreciate your opinion on those sometime in the near future.

    Foxwolfen- Thanks for your comments too. I'm working on the guitar a bit.
