Song I'll hopefully finish before the end of the decade

This is a song I found the raw stems for a while ago, the original is awesome and you should definitely check it out here:

And support the band, Another Mask, on their Bandcamp:

I tried some new techniques for this one, first was playing live drums on it, recording and mixing those, second was trying new approaches to mixing, gain staging, compression and mastering. I think overall it turned out a lot more professional than previous mixes of mine.

[Mix; Master; Drums] Another Mask - Simple Dreams

This is another track from the Hardcore Music Studio trackpack by Jordan Valeriote, this was fun to mix.

I think the vocals were tuned a fair bit too heavily in the provided tracks, so there wasn't too much I could do about that.
Guitars use a blend of STL Tonality Will Putney and the original amp tones. The bass, too, is a blend of the original tone and Neural DSP Parallax specifically layered on the heavier sections.
The drums are a blend of the live tracks with some of my own samples, Anup Sastry's Illuminate samples and the snare from Alex Rüdinger's Good Tiger pack.
I played around with some vocal effects and added a couple of effects and synth layers to the existing production.
Overall, I think this turned out quite alright.

[Mix; Master; Additional Production] Illuminate The Sky - Everything Happens For A reason

Got these tracks from Jordan Valeriote's Porfolio pack and I enjoyed this song.
First time trying the SSL Bus compressor on the entire drum bus and blending it in in parallel and I like the effect that has.
The drums are a blend of my own samples and the live tracks.

Daughters of Atlas

Split The Sky

[Mix; Master; Additional Production] Kingdoms - Split The Sky

Very wrong mix comparison

These are the results of recording myself warming up and creating a simple zero-latency drum mix with the tracks. I'm happy with these tones.
