My goal was to give the track a more focused, open sound. I really enjoyed the challenge of giving all the synths their own sp...

Hello everyone, My approach to this song was to keep the dynamic rang intact. I felt that soul of the song was in the rhythm and bounce of the track.

Hi Jeroen and fellow mixers, I had a good time mixing this track. I wanted to keep it raw and energetic. I didn’t time correct anything. I just focused on the band bandit out in a room. I felt the that to give this track an aggressive energy, I would have to pull it from the drums. I used transient ...

Hello @Isa, Thank you for the opportunity to advance to round 2. I made the changes that you requested.
