Hey everyone, hope you have all been keeping well! Finally had some free time to join in for a mix, but this time I gave myself a bit of a challenge. Usually I do the mix over the course of a few days but for this one I wanted to try to get the whole thing done in a single day. I'm fairly comfortable mixing rock tracks and it was well recorded enough that I figured this would be a great track to try to get done in a day. It definitely changed my workflow considerably, less experimenting with different plugins to see what worked best. I knocked it out in about 6 hours or so, with short 10 minute breaks every hour and pausing for lunch. Keeping my ears fresh for the whole thing was a challenge but having a listen this morning I don't think I did too bad.
As for what I actually did with the track, I used a SSL J series to do the majority of the heavy lifting then had the odd vintage EQ/Compressor on some select tracks to make them stand out more. Didn't try to do too much with the track, just wanted to get it really pumping and keep the energy. I used DVP by PUP as a reference track, noticed it sounded pretty gritty so I tried to get some of that into my mix.

Thanks to @Totonno Nevone for the tracks, really great song and I've wanted to mix a track like this for awhile, so thanks for giving me/us the opportunity!
