i like the slow plodding vibe here,
goes with the lyric well....
and the mix is very POPalicious,
very clear, with clean open sounds that gives lots of room for the sonics.
i think if i mixed this, i'd bring the vox down a bit...
it's so up front, and really does not need to be..
but if this is a mix that is 'genre-specific', maybe the mix is right on.
i don't listen to this kind of thing on my own,
but i can't deny it sounds really good.
nice work daryl
