Remixed this quirky tune that came out a few years ago.
Yes we like Primus and Skeleton Key.
Thanks for listening.
 
The Midshipman

There's a band called *skeleton key?!*  I just wrote a halloweeny song called that! Have they trademarked their name?  *make amurica great again* was trademarked can you believe that?!
 
The drums sound incredibly good on this.  I need to take some lessons from you.  The eagle-eye view of the song though is that it needs some more contrast.  It's a little repetitive.

Thanks for the feedback. Used a Audix D6 for the kick mic. SM57 for snare and some cheap overheads which I sweetened up with Soundtoys plugins.
 
Yea they're a great band from NY. Been around a while now.

I really enjoyed this piece.  I'm reminded of King Crimson of the 80's.  They used repetition, too, but very creatively.  They added and/or took away various elements with each pass.  I look forward to hearing more of you in the future.

Very tight! Excellent work!

Love this. Excellent mix/master.

Thanks. Much appreciated guys!

Mix does sound exceptional here, thanks for sharing.

I liked it, too! Your doubled guitars are punchy as all heck. How did you record them, twas it an amp sim?
 
My apologies if I was grooving too hard to catch anything about a fish.
 
cheers,

Thanks Tom.
Yea the guitars were recorded direct then Guitar Rig 5 for distortion.
Then I copy guitars to stereo track, hi pass till about 350Hz, send to wide chorus or microshift plug, mix in SUBTLY with dry guitar. I do this for a lot of the mono instruments to get a wider more sparkling top end.
