Hi

Really liked this challenge.
At the first listening to track i picked up some (obvious) old brit vibes,
so i wanted to keep that vibe going while i was mixing.

MP3: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0ByEDP ... XJ1b0oydzA
WAV: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0ByEDP ... lFwbXg4ODg


The individual tracks don't have much going on basically some eq's, expect end's vocal tracks that were harmonized using with Izotope's Nectar 2/Meldas Harmonizer and Oldstem vocals with izotope's vinyl.
Couple guitar were also added Flanger.
Explosion was sidechained to white noise and distorted with tube screamer emulation
Otherwise everything was balanced with volume and panning (LCR), and summed up to busses (Vocals, Drums+Bass, Orchestral elements, guitars, FX's).
Every buss went through Cana Mystique Tape machine or through Ferox tape emulator just to add tape saturation.
After that eq'd and compressed to taste.
Vocals were added quite fast ping pong delay and wet output was distorted slightly.
Guitar's have delay and re-amped and buss just lil get some dirt on them.
Master buss was treated with Eventide's Room reverb, and Ozone's imager, after that another tape emulation, slight eq and compressor to glue mix together.


And yeah analyzed through Izotopes Insight (using PEAK+RMS)
LUFS -19.5
Peaking -5.1
LU Range 7
Momentary Max Lufs -15.9

Hi Nick, Hi Gary, Hi Mr. Fox !

Here's my mix as Wav and Mp3
https://www.dropbox.com/s/k3rojm6uga8mr ... s.wav?dl=0
https://www.dropbox.com/s/17udj7zp9s8g7 ... s.mp3?dl=0

Lot of edits, some reamping and whole lotta common mixing stuff.
Weirdest thing: duplicated overhead track, gated the hihats and pitch down a little to become "second cymbal". Forgive me, i was a drummer :baytins:
MasterBus: exciter, clean mastering eq and bus compressor (very gentle used, round 1dB GR)
Hope i did that "proper fade out" ...

Have fun !

Greetings from Germany
Arthur
