Hi, all!
I have completed new(actually old) song recently --
http://kompoz.com/t/91208
hydrogen, ardour, japa, jkmeter and jamin was used -- many thanks to its
authors.
I will be happy to read your opinions, especially about my "mastering".

Hey,
Nice song.. not my usual genre, so I'll not talk about "music" rather
mastering.
The following is only my opinion.. dont take it too serious!
Drums could be louder, although i could hear the hats and crashes, the
snares
& bass drums didnt cut it ( especially after the intro).
The clean seperation between the frequencies of the bass and the rest makes
that a prominent part of the song. (Compressing the bass drum a lot &
letting
that be louder would take a little from this, but I'd say worth it).
A little reverb to smooth some of the track may make it sound more
"together",
but you'd have to experiment with putting it on vocals, guitar, drums, or
maybe
even a tiny amount on the lot.. (I recommend JCGui and JConvolver for good
reverbs.. :-)
Thanks for posting, -Harry

Hi, Harry!
Thank you for constructive advice. I will try to take it during next
mix&mastering iteration.

Hi Oleg,
Listening on a laptop here (in the sun outside, ahhhhh, thank god for summer)
As Harry mentioned the drums are a bit low, but for me it's more that
the lead guitar is way too high in volume.
The bass is mostly inaudible with these tiny speakers, perhaps it's
possible to eq in some low-mids in the bass.
I'm no expert but I would change the intro, perhaps remove the drums
for a few bars (or the otherway around), it sounds a bit unfinished to
me, or perhaps it's due to that I can't hear the bass..
Apart from that a solid song, I like the break part with the rain(!?!)
in the background :-)
I also like that it's in russian though I can't understand a word.
Regards,
Robert

Hi, Robert!
Thank you very much for your opinion.
I think that disbalance between bass and guitar caused your laptop speakers.
It is 60's childish song, so I wanted to recreate "uncontemporary",
"undisciplined" panoraming of instruments -- bass at left, guitar at right
and drums at center. So, if your speakers can't reproduce bass in left
channel you hear too loud guitar in right channel. Try to listen my first
mix&master attempt -- http://kompoz.com/t/91171, but I find it unsuccessfull
because of too overcompressed and loud bass.
About intro -- I think your sense of "incompletness" caused, consistent with
bass-issue, by too quiet bass drum(kick). I am working on that defer to
Harry's advice right now.
And yes, this song about the rain :). Briefly, it is said that inspite of
rain and cloudy sky I will not affray and sun will definitely rising again.

Hi Oleg,
I took a listen on my studio computer and it appears you are correct,
there's something wrong with the stereo output on my laptop...:-(
Sounded much better now, cool bass!
Though I still think the guitar is a bit too dominant and would be
better if lowered a few dB

Hi, Robert!
Be honest, I think with you about a bit of loud guitar. Seems like I should
to try to make guitar quieter and get past the fact that jkmeter show that
right channel quieter than left channel :)
