Big thanks brothers Mark and Andy. I uploaded the wrong mix earlier, that wasn't the new kit. New 7 12 mix up now.
Haven't made up my mind it's even a step in the right direction. Just got my demo licenses for the Sonar works room correction stuff, I'm going to use this to evaluate that. Thanks again.

Hiya Grant,
 
Listening to the latest mix again.
 
One problem I have with listening to songs that are updated is I don't have access to the previous mixes and so find it difficult to compare.
 
what I would say about this one though, from memory, this whole mix seems to have lost some of that energy compared to the other versions I remember listening to.
 
Having said that, if I had listened to this version first I would have said it sounded fine.
 
Might just be my addled memory playing tricks on me dood ...
 
On a second listen, now that I'm bedding into this new mix, I think I actually prefer it. Seems cleaner to me...
 
 
cheers

Hi Grant, nice tune, seems to me the electric guitar in the beginning could be a bit louder and maybe the acoustic a little less, but what do i know ; )
 
Rik

plenty has been said about mix, I just wanted to say I like the take you have on this song.  A much different feel, and it is cool to hear.  Nice job.

you did really good on this playing wise...it just sounds so distant...AM if you will...
 
I'd love to re mix this for you...see what's going on...
 
great playing for sure and very interesting..

Sounds like you might have a bit too much compression on the drums.  The kick seems to lack impact, and is all high end with no bottom.
 
Vocals are very nice, and instrument performances are pretty good too!
 
I'd maybe give a bit more "beef" to the rhythm guitar too if it were me.
 
Anyway, nice work!

Thanks again Andy, Rikkie, Scott, Tom and Walt.
 
 New mix up, thanks for the great suggestions.

Hey Grant, sounded pretty good to me, but your vocals need to come up.

ohgrant
 New mix up

Got that 
 

philz
but your vocals need to come up.

Yeah, I think I agree, although I'd have said that the new mix was fine had I not seen Phil's comment. That's purely down to me not knowing what the hell I'm talking about 

Hi Grant,
 
You guys are so deep into this studio engineering it makes my head spin.
 
Cool tune and looking forward to more.
 
Cheers,
 
Billy
