Good morning,
Here is my mix of King of the weekend. I had a lot of trouble processing the voice.
And also to find a good dosage for the Kick Bass.
For the rest I tried to have a little fun.
have a good weekend :p

Hi Hubert.

Great effect on the high-pitched 'strawberry' vocal! I kept feeling like it needed something to make it more bearable :P but never came up with anything myself.

I like how you made some of the backing vocals lo-fi. Although I feel there is a something a bit unnatural with the repetitive 'jack' vocal starting around 1:52 - I think the reverb on it feels somehow disconnected from the vocal itself.

The entire mix seems to have a bit of muddiness to it.

Overall I like it!

Sounds great. Maybe a bit more gloss in the 10kHz region might help?

Hi Hubert, nice mix! Good use of the effects, though they need some more sculpting the frequencies, high passing for one. The hihat is loud and harsh, and, like Eric mentioned, the bckng vocal calling Jack is rather disturbing.
Overall good result.

Hey Hubert. I think you are good on levels of the foundational elements. The lead vocal is a little essy, and the back up Jack seems tonally out of place. Overall, I think you could look for some more top end above 8K without adding harshness - saturation might be your friend there. Ending is really good.

good laidback mix :) shows that you took the time to make things sound with clarity and have a good relation with one another. maybe its not the direction a techno mix would have but, your mix is valid because its ur vision and it kinda works :) maybe sirens are a bit too loud but yeah nice thought overall
